Wall Street is leaning <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/natural-gas">into natural gas</a> while pumping the brakes on oil. 
JPMorgan's latest energy sector update signals a shift in the landscape, driven by growing U.S. gas demand and a looming oil glut in 2025. 
Analyst Arun Jayaram and his team have crunched the numbers, revising forecasts and adjusting ratings accordingly. They&#8217;ve upgraded Range Resources Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RRC#NYSE">RRC</a>) and downgraded Vermilion Energy Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/VET#NYSE">VET</a>) as gas stocks catch fire and oil stocks face headwinds.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Natural Gas: The New Favorite</h2>
JPMorgan is doubling down on natural gas, citing three major secular tailwinds:
<ol start="1">
<li>LNG Boom – The U.S. is ramping up LNG export capacity, set to increase by 11 Bcf/d by 2030, keeping demand strong.</li>
<li>Electrification Surge – AI-driven power consumption is skyrocketing, with U.S. gas turbine orders up 147% year-over-year.</li>
<li>Coal-to-Gas Shift – More utilities are pivoting to natural gas as a cleaner alternative to coal.</li>
</ol>
With these factors in play, JPMorgan sees long-term natural gas prices above $3.50 per MMBtu, potentially reaching $4.00+ in 2025-2026 to stimulate necessary supply growth. The firm's top picks in the sector remain Antero Resources Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AR#NYSE">AR</a>), EQT Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/EQT#NYSE">EQT</a>) and Excelerate Energy Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/EXE#NYSE">EXE</a>) &#8211; stocks that have yet to fully reflect the bullish gas price outlook.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Oil's Not-So-Slick Future</h2>
On the flip side, oil is in for a rougher ride. JPMorgan's commodity team, led by Natasha Kaneva, expects the market to shift from a balanced 2024 to a 1.3 million barrels per day (MMBo/d) surplus in 2025, as non-OPEC+ production surges from Brazil, Guyana and Norway.
Adding to the pressure, OPEC+ is set to bring more barrels back into the market starting in April, just as global demand growth slows. The team forecasts Brent crude prices ending 2025 below $70 per barrel, a bearish signal for oil stocks. As a result, JPMorgan is trimming its EBITDA estimates for oil companies by 2% in 2025 and 10% in 2026, with its oil coverage group seeing a 17% drop in net asset value-based price targets.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">RRC Up, VET Down</h2>
With this backdrop, JPMorgan has moved Range Resources to Neutral from Underweight, citing a more reasonable valuation and the company's shift toward production growth in 2026. 
Meanwhile, Vermilion Energy gets the downgrade to Underweight, reflecting concerns over valuation and lower-than-expected earnings projections.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Takeaway For Investors</h2>
The energy market is at an inflection point, with natural gas equities emerging as the better bet. 
With LNG demand booming, AI-driven power needs soaring and coal-to-gas switching in full swing, gas stocks could still have more room to run.
Meanwhile, oil investors should brace for volatility as the supply glut builds. JPMorgan's positioning? Bullish on gas, cautious on oil and keeping a close watch on the shifting energy tides.

Besides going to a brokerage platform to purchase a share &#8211; or fractional share &#8211; of stock, you can also gain access to shares either by buying an exchange traded fund (ETF) that holds the stock itself, or by allocating yourself to a strategy in your 401(k) that would seek to acquire shares in a mutual fund or other instrument. 
For example, in DoorDash's case, it&#8217;s in the Consumer Discretionary sector. An ETF will likely hold shares in many liquid and large companies that help track that sector, allowing an investor to gain exposure to the trends within that segment.

This Expand Energy Analyst Begins Coverage On A Bullish Note; Here Are Top 5 Initiations For Tuesday

Raymond James analyst John Freeman initiates coverage on Expand Energy (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/EXE#NASDAQ">EXE</a>) with a Strong Buy rating and announces Price Target of $135.

Raymond James Initiates Coverage On Expand Energy with Strong Buy Rating, Announces Price Target of $135

Goldman Sachs analyst Neil Mehta downgraded Magnolia Oil &amp; Gas Corporation (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MGY#NYSE">MGY</a>) and Occidental Petroleum Corporation (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/OXY#NYSE">OXY</a>), while reinstating coverage on Expand Energy Corporation (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/EXE#NASDAQ">EXE</a>).
MGY: The analyst downgraded the company from Buy to Neutral and cut <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/mgy/analyst-ratings" rel="noreferrer noopener">the price forecast from $27 to $26</a>.
Mehta writes that the bearish outlook reflects the company&#8217;s outperformance relative to peers.
This performance has been driven by effective cost improvement initiatives and a focus on capital efficiencies in 2024, along with its relatively low leverage, adds the analyst.
While he still anticipates strong operational execution, he believes the stock now reflects these advantages.
The analyst estimates MGY to maintain relatively flat production costs over the next two years as the majority of significant operational cost savings were realized through the company&#8217;s early 2024 cost-saving initiative.
OXY: Mehta downgraded the company from Neutral to Sell and cut <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/oxy/analyst-ratings" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">the price forecast from $54 to $45</a>.
The bearish outlook reflects the company's pause on capital returns to shareholders until meaningful balance sheet improvements are achieved. Additionally, while asset sales could support deleveraging, further clarity is needed on their scope and impact, adds the analyst.
Given the less attractive risk/reward profile, with an 8% downside compared to 25% upside for oil-focused peers, the analyst sees limited upside potential.
The analyst increased the estimated FCF yield from 10.0% to 11.0%, citing investors&#8217; growing emphasis on capital returns and the company&#8217;s higher leverage.
EXE: Mehta resumed coverage on the company with a Buy rating and price forecast of $121, <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/exe/analyst-ratings" rel="noreferrer noopener">implying an 18% upside from current levels</a>.
The decision follows the merger of Chesapeake Energy (CHK) <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com//node/41070109" rel="noreferrer noopener">and </a><a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com//node/41070109" rel="noreferrer noopener">Southwestern Energy (SWN)</a>.
The analyst writes that Expand Energy&#8217;s emphasis on capital efficiency, disciplined activity, and risk management strengthens confidence in its operational outlook.
While gas production growth from Haynesville is expected to support rising LNG export demand, the company&#8217;s dual-basin presence in Appalachia and Haynesville provides a low-cost core business in Appalachia with expansion potential in Haynesville, reducing basin takeaway constraints, adds the analyst.
Additionally, its flexible operational strategy offers strong long-term exposure to structural improvements in natural gas prices, says the analyst.
