barrons3	Cramer isn’t the only person who thinks natural gas prices are headed higher. UPL CEO Michael Watford set his price target at $6, very close to the Mad Money host’s estimate. That’s probably why Ultra Petro is ramping up its drilling, especially in the Marcellus Shale. The company is digging 35 wells there, well above the originally planned 23.	Love	October 29, 2009
mrsyphus	Too volatile	Hate	July 10, 2009
Stockpickr Staff	Chevron (CVX) and Ultra Pete (UPL) have turned up, and can the others be that far behind? I find these two stocks, one oil, one gas, have been good barometers of the group. They aren't as good as Schlumberger (SLB) or Occidental (OXY) -- both down badly -- but it does say the group may not be down for the count." <a href="http://jimcramer.rmblogs.thestreet.com/entry.aspx?q=ac5f62ad-148e-491f-8150-9c2601033003" target="_blank">"Don't Write Off Oil and Gas Stocks," 6-12-09</a>	Love	June 15, 2009
barrons3	What's really telling is that anyone who can switch easily from oil to natural gas already has, so there's not a lot of arbitrage. Yet Ultra Petroleum (UPL), Apache (APA), XTO Energy (XTO) and Chesapeake (CHK) trade like houses on fire.	Love	May 21, 2009
barrons3	I do not know how many of these big natural gas companies -- Chesapeake (CPK), Apache (APA), Anadarko (APC), Southwestern Energy (SWN), Cabot Oil & Gas (COG), Ultra Petroleum (UPL), XTO Energy (XTO) and Devon (DVN) -- can make their earnings with natural gas at $3.60/MMBTU and going lower because of the end of the winter heating season.	Love	April 02, 2009
barrons3	Wait a minute, it is freezing cold for much of the nation and getting much colder as the week goes on. I could see, right now, picking up as many natural gas stocks as I could find, everything from Ultra Petroleum (UPL) to Devon (DVN), Apache (APA) and Chesapeake (CHK). You always buy nat gas stocks when it gets cold. That's a time-honored trade. Not this year. Natural gas, astoundingly, just took out $5. That's incredible, just incredible. Can you imagine where it would be if it were warm? Where would we put this stuff? These stocks, every one of them, seem like shorts to me.	Love	January 15, 2009
sarah z	From a recent Mad Money show:"I want you to buy more. Natural gas is done going down, that's my prediction. They are the lowest cost producer. I want to buy Ultra."	Love	January 06, 2009
sarah z	From a recent Mad Money show: "Short term it's going to be rough sledding for Ultra. But I think it's OK longer term since they're a low cost producer."	Love	December 22, 2008
barrons3	We are in the season where natural gas should have fallen more before it got here, because without some sort of unseasonably warm snap, we will now believe that nat gas is permanently above $5 and change, where a whole host of prudent companies, like Equitable (EQT) for yield and Ultra (UPL) for growth, make a lot of money.	Love	November 27, 2008
sarah z	From a recent Mad Money show: "This is a growth stock. I feel very strongly that Ultra will be one of the first to rebound."	Love	October 23, 2008
barrons3	We've got natural-gas tell Ultra (UPL) -- it always goes first -- headed up, too	Love	October 02, 2008
Royalsun	Same as SU	Love	September 17, 2008
barrons2	They disappeared. The darned sellers disappeared. The sellers of MasterCard (MA) and Freeport-McMoRan (FCX) and Potash (POT). The sellers of National Oilwell Varco (NOV) and Conoco (COP) and XTO Energy (XTO) and Ultra Petroleum (UPL). The sellers of Occidental (OXY) and Devon (DVN).	Love	September 11, 2008
barrons2	Cramer cautioned investors to scale out of the oil stocks that are directly affected by the decline in oil prices. They include companies such as Transocean (RIG), Rowen Drilling (RDC), Chesapeake Energy (CHK), XTO Energy (XTO) and Ultra Petroleum (UPL). He said while it may be tempting to buy into these names ahead of the media events, the market is indicating there is more pain to come.	Love	August 21, 2008

Shivaaa	nat gas hitting a low today	Love	July 22, 2008
Bing	natgas	Love	July 06, 2008
barrons2	But they are all great, including Ultra (UPL), Apache (APA), Anadarko (APC), Chesapeake (CHK), XTO (XTO) and all of the wildcatters I have been profiling on "Mad Money." Today people are buying every driller, with Halliburton (HAL) and Nabors (NBR) doing the best today because of their natural exposure. Here, frankly I would buy ANYTHING right along with them. It is the strongest group out there, and it's not done yet.	Love	June 26, 2008
barrons2	He also recommended Ultra Petroleum (UPL), Apache (APA), Anadarko (APC) and Chesapeake Energy (CHK).	Love	June 19, 2008
barrons2	This process is leaving a lot of people behind. They can't figure how natural gas stocks got this high, but that's totally a function of the old 6-to-1 rule. Natural gas almost always trades as a ratio of 6-to-1 -- divide oil by 6 bucks -- so how can you not own Apache (APA), Southwestern (SWN), XTO (XTO), Devon (DVN), Ultra Pete (UPL), El Paso (EP), Anadarko (APC) and so many other little companies.	Love	May 22, 2008
barrons2	We don't want shortages of any fuel as that cuts to reliability, but it is important for a piece of the puzzle to buy Ultra Petroleum (UPL), Southwestern (SWN), Devon (DVN), Chesapeake (CHK), or the obvious XTO (XTO), Apache (APA) and Anadarko (APC) on any weakness.	Love	May 15, 2008
barrons2	Rounding out his favorite natural gas drillers, Cramer also recommended Devon (DVN), Apache (APA), Southwest Energy (SWN), Ultra Petroleum (UPL) and Encana (ECA).	Love	May 08, 2008
chiscoe	Nat gas has potential	Love	March 26, 2008
taftii	excellent track record	Love	February 20, 2008
barrons2	The oil umbrella will also carry the natural gas stocks. Cramer likes Ultra Petroleum (UPL), Apache (APA), Anadarko (APC) and XTO Energy (XTO), which he owns for his charitable trust, Action Alerts PLUS.	Love	February 13, 2008
Free Market Capitalism	Nat. Gas exploration in western Pinedale and Jonah Fields. Excellent 08 projected earnings growth.	Love	February 02, 2008
barrons2	Barron's: Art, you had some huge winners last year -- like Monsanto, up 118%. What do you like now? Samberg: Ultra Petroleum, a gas exploration and production company with some of the best exploration assets in North America. They have about 2.4 trillion cubic feet of proven reserves and another 4.4 trillion of unproven-but-probable reserves. Production will grow 20% a year over the next three years.	Love	January 19, 2008
