Natural gas prices could rocket higher this winter, and some producers could emerge from hibernation in much stronger shape.

Morgan Stanley analyst Mark Carlucci thinks

EQT

(EQT), the largest gas producer in the U.S., can do particularly well under those circumstances and he upgraded the shares to Overweight from Equal Weight in a note on Friday.

Southwestern Energy

(SWN), another gas producer, is also improving, and Carlucci upgraded its shares to Equal Weight from Underweight.

Natural gas prices have been depressed for years because there’s simply too much of it. Natural gas is a byproduct of oil production, and a boom in oil drilling in the U.S. has also led to an increase in natural gas supplies.

The stock market was volatile on Tuesday after posting solid gains to start the week. The Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJINDICES: ^DJI) was up 0.37% at 1:10 p.m. EDT today, outperforming the other major indexes.

One thing keeping the stock market in check could be comments from Federal Reserve chairman Jerome Powell, who warned on Tuesday that too little government aid would lead to a weak economic recovery. Congress has yet to agree on additional stimulus measures, and an agreement does not appear close.

Shares of Boeing (NYSE: BA) were moving in the wrong direction on Tuesday after the airplane manufacturer predicted a difficult decade ahead. Meanwhile, the stock of Walmart (NYSE: WMT) was little changed after the retailer announced an insurance brokerage business.

Shares advanced in on Tuesday Asia after hopes for economic aid from Washington helped Wall Street recover its losses from the initial shock of learning President Donald Trump had tested positive for the coronavirus.
