CWEI Stock: Do You Feel Lucky?
Local oil and gas independent Clayton Williams Energy Inc. (CWEI) has enjoyed an impressive nay, amazing run-up in stock value this year. From a 52-week low of $10.30/share last April, the stock price has appreciated about 350%, closing at $36.49 yesterday. The following chart, courtesy of the Wall Street Journal, documents this phenomenon over the past 12 months:

So, what would you do today, if you owned a few thousand shares of CWEI?
As they say, past performance is not necessarily an indicator of future performance. At the same time, only a very foolish person would ignore the potential lesson illustrated by the following chart...a five-year graph of CWEI stock price:

By coincidence, about 20 minutes before checking this informative Blog, I had an email from one of my investors in Wash. DC about the run-up in CWEI. I referred him here. CWEI has a history of running up on a few good wells announcements or a potential "big" discovery.
