StockCall.com Provides Stock Research on Chesapeake Energy Corp., Talisman Energy Inc., Southwestern Energy Co., EOG Resources Inc., and McMoRan Exploration Co.
New York City, New York -- (May 22, 2013)
Oil prices have come under pressure in recent weeks due to weakening demand, especially from China, and a stronger dollar. While the Chinese economy is growing, the growth pace has slowed down. With the Chinese economy not likely to grow at double digit rate anymore, demand for oil could remain under pressure. The lower demand has come at a time when the market is seeing increasing supply from North America, where the shale revolution has boosted production. Oil and gas stocks ended mostly higher in trading yesterday, tracking gains in the broad market. Among the major movers in the sector were Chesapeake Energy Corporation (NYSE:CHK - News), Talisman Energy Inc. (USA) (NYSE:TLM - News), Southwestern Energy Company (NYSE:SWN - News), EOG Resources Inc. (NYSE:EOG - News), and McMoRan Exploration Co. (NYSE:MMR - News).
