Corporate Profile
EEX is a Houston-based independent oil and gas exploration company with exploration and production activities in Texas, Louisiana, the Gulf of Mexico and Indonesia. Our mission is to increase shareholder value primarily through the drillbit, by continuing to build our growing onshore production base while pursuing a few large-scale exploration opportunities in the Gulf of Mexico. Our exploration program is balanced between relatively low risk, natural gas-orientated onshore reserve potential in south Texas and higher risk, large reserve potential prospects in the Gulf of Mexico. In the Deepwater, we are primarily focused on appraisal and development in the Llano area of Garden Banks. The remainder of our Gulf of Mexico activities emphasizes exploration prospects and leads that are emerging in the shallower waters of the Gulf of Mexico Shelf.

Yesterday the stock closed lower (1.85), close to its low (sign of weakness) with a lower high and a lower low. A bearish gap occured, which may indicate a sell off.The volume is low. The security price is trending sideways.

Although the sentiment is bearish,I consider this a nice play at these levels...Keep in mind that energy plays does have a volatile record and must be monitored on a regular basis..

EEX was at a high of 4.70 last June,but the drop was contributed to the depressed gas markets...Energy analysts are becoming increasingly convinced that North America will see significant jumps in the price of natural gas over the next 12 months, and one by one they have been raising their price forecasts for 2002 and 2003.

It is for the above reason and the concentration that this company has in the gas markets makes this a nice play with positive upward share price potential in the next 6-12 months..This winter will play a major role for natural gas and EEX is postioned to be a player....

Have a good day and as always, apply your DD in a sound manner and invest intelligently...

Update on EEX

Update on EEX

The stock is breaking from the support of 1.80 which is the 5 day and the next 15-80 day support is 1.66 mark....It is in this area that is key and could indicate a buying opportunity...I don't expect this to move lower than 1.66 support area....The resistance level is 2.05 and will take a great deal of volume to break,but considering these pressures on natural gas and for the fall season makes a buying opportunity at 1.70 level a good move....Right now is a wait and watch...

Have a good day...

Followup on EEX

Followup on EEX

When I first sent a signal on a hold for this company it was at a 1.80 and my 2nd followup was sitting at 1.70 and became a buy....Well now it appears that this company is being bought out by Newfield Exploration Company (NYSE: NFX) closed today at 36.55...This merger is great if you bought EEX at 1.70...The close for EEX today is 1.90 and the buyout offer is some where in the area of 2.10 giving a return of .25% in 8 days...To your advantage it would be better to hold for a more lucrative deal...This is an option to elect to receive units in a new trust in lieu of Newfield stock. Approximately 42.5 million trust units will be available. For each unit that an EEX shareholder elects to receive, the number of shares of Newfield common stock that the shareholder would otherwise receive will be reduced by .00054 of one Newfield share. The trust will own overriding royalty interests in future production from intervals generally below 20,000'from certain Gulf of Mexico lease blocks in which EEX owns or may acquire an interest.

Either way it was a good buy and return certainly will reward shareholders...


Have a good day....
