Equitrans Midstream (ETRN) has a few oil assets, but is mostly a gas and pipeline company.
I wanted all y'alls opinion on shorting it as I was surprised to see it valued at nearly $4B today. Looks like they got a bump on the Buffett news, but how can a Marcellus shale gas company be worth that much?
They caught my eye being at the very top of
this list of high debt to equity oil & gas companies.
Yes, my home state of Pennsylvania does stoop and now to the gas industry in any way they like, but even the once mighty dictator of PA Chesapeake Energy is dying.
I guess if the GOP can take the governor's office in 2 years there might be a smoother decline for gas in PA but that's unlikely.
Looks like puts are slim pickings, but $7.50 doesn't seem like terrible idea for January if they can be had for pennies.
