Unlike many of the companies in our recent articles, this week's profile stock is not a high dividend stock. However, we think it's a stock with good long-term and short-term prospects. Apparently, the "Oracle of Omaha" thinks so too - Warren Buffett's firm, Berkshire Hathaway (BRK.A) BRK.B), bought 6.5 million shares of Chicago Bridge & Iron (CBI) in the first quarter of 2013, its biggest new stock purchase. Chicago Bridge & Iron made up about .48% of Berkshire's total holdings as of 3/31/2013.
The U.S. is in an oil and natural gas boom, and has become a net exporter of petroleum products for the first time in many years, thanks to fracking technologies, which have enabled energy firms to harvest oil and gas from newly discovered shale deposits and also to revitalize old, moribund oil fields long left for dead. Indeed, the U.S. has been called "the Saudi Arabia of natural gas" by some energy pundits. Energy firms are salivating over the prospect of shipping liquid natural gas, LNG, to highly lucrative markets overseas, where they'll fetch a high multiple vs. U.S. prices.
