Pending recovery in natural gas prices

Natural gas has become the fuel of choice for generating electricity as a result of high efficiency combined cycles with low pollution and as a result of its plentiful supply. In the past its price was driven by heating needs. In the future its demand and price will also be driven by its use for generating electricity and indications are that demand will increase 30% by 2010. In order to meet that demand price will increase to stimulate supply.

Recent forecasts are that 1999 is the bottom for gas and that demand and price will begin picking up in 2000 as a result of 30 GWe of gas fired capacity coming on line. I've seen price forecasts of $1.90 for 1999 and between 2.25 and 2.75 for 2000. How can investors profit? That's the purpose of this thread.
