In this exclusive interview with The Energy Report, Jeff and Chad bring some growth and value ideas into sharp focus. More >

Marshall Auerback: Decoding Energy Investment
Source: Brian Sylvester of The Energy Report  (1/27/11)
Pinetree Capital's Marshall Auerback sees a number of supply/demand imbalances in the energy space, particularly in uranium. "We like uranium because it's both a supply and demand story," he says, believing the price could "easily double" over the next few years. But yellowcake won't be alone in its ascent up the energy hierarchy. As developing nations begin to realize a standard of living more akin to the West, opportunities could arise in other areas across the energy spectrum. In this Energy Report exclusive, Marshall decodes the energy enigma, making a strong case for U308, oil and gas E&Ps and even natural gas. More >
