How the LNG Boom Could Make These Two Countries Rocket in 2010

"How big can it get?" Thats a question Eric Sprott asks himself before he puts his dough in a stock. It may seem a small question, but I think its helped him guide his fund, Sprott Offshore, to a 21% annual return over the past nine years, versus a 1.1% loss for the market. If you want big returns, you have to start with acorns, not oak trees.

So I ask myself as I sit here in the first days of 2010 and think through the opportunities in front of me today: What can get big? Where can we really score?

I have one play in mind that can easily get 235% bigger in the coming year (more on that at the end of todays article). It will make hay from a number of big trends moving its way. Well start with one of them: the rise of LNG, or liquefied natural gas. (LNG is supercooled natural gas, which turns into a liquid that you can then ship on tankers.)

  1. we have had the technology to do this-reach, store, and dispense LNG- since at LEAST the 70's. Ask the government what happened in the Reagan Admin. when they taxed LNG so high, we had to BUY from the big comapanies who think they can cornere the market now on LNG. THEY CANNOT CORNER this market. It is a renewable fuel. We also HAVE the correct equipment to store and dispense LNG safely. This technology does not belong to bogus companies who are ripping off big and samll companies and investors with their nonfunctioning equiipment. ASK questions before you buy or invest. There ARE successfully working models of this equipment available now.
