RESEARCH ALERT-Morgan cuts Cabot Oil & Gas
NEW YORK, May 15 (Reuters) - J.P. Morgan said analyst May Chilton cut her rating on independent oil and gas producer and marketer Cabot Oil & Gas Corp. (NYSE:COG - news) from buy to market perform on weakening natural gas prices.

Cabot Oil & Gas, which is based in Houston, has 86 percent of its hydrocarbon production as natural gas. The stock closed Monday at $30.25 a share.

Morgan cut its estimate for cash flow per share from $1.84 to $1.79 for the second quarter and from $8.27 to $8.22 for the year.

The price forecast for natural gas in Henry Hub, a major pricing point for natural gas located in Texas, was also reduced in the second quarter from $5.12 per million cubic feet of gas (mcf) to $4.80 per mcf. For the year, it cut the estimate from $5.60 per mcf to $5.40 per mcf.

Last December, natural gas futures on the New York Mercantile Exchange (NYMEX) reached almost $10 per mcf.
