Legend Oil and Gas – LOGL


logl legend oil LOGL Legend OilOil & Gas penny stocks have always been pretty consistent favorites for day traders. There are hundreds of the out there on both the OTCBB and Pink Sheets. Mining Penny Stocks are a favorite for both longer term investors and day traders because they are often news driven. The right news announcement can send any given company skyrocketing in a matter of minutes.

Legend Oil & Gas (OTCBB:LOGL). LOGL is a junior minor who operates in the Bakken Shale Oil Field in North Dakota. This is the new hotspot for drilling in America. It is estimated that the Bakken holds between 3 and 5 billion barrels of recoverable oil.  Geologists have known about the Bakken for a long time but it wasn’t even on the radar until oil prices pushed above $140. Then the Bakken became an economically feasible place to explore for oil as shale is extremely expensive to mine from.

The question is, does LOGL have quality properties in the Bakken and are the able to pull oil out of the ground at a cost affective price. There is no doubt that LOGL is in the right area of the world. Companies like Marathon, Hess, Chesapeake, Continental, EOG, Burlington and Whiting produced an astonishing 42.5 million barrels of oil from only 1,541 wells. At least 10 companies have doubled or even tripled since they started producing oil out of the Bakken.

I will be keeping an eye on Legend Oil and gas LOGL over the next few months. The company just started trading in March and we have seen it creep up slowly with some days having decent volume. LOGL could turn into a hot penny stock with the right news announcement but it is still unproven. I will keep watching for news on this one.

The Tokyo stock exchange spiraled downward Monday, the first trading day following the earthquake and tsunami involving epic proportions triggered billions of dollars in harm.  Now might be the time to take a serious look at some oil penny stocks.

Shares of quite a few main corporations were confused with sell purchases that had yet to trade. Among those in particular, Tokyo Electric Power Corp. was set to fall by double digits as it battled with malfunctioning nuclear reactors along with a power shortage that led the organization to announce rolling blackouts in areas of Tokyo and its and surrounding areas.

Export stocks overall registered staggering deficits as investors trashed shares over issues about economic production and consumption.

Vehicle makers ended up hit hard, as northeastern Japan can be a main center for auto production, including several of the parts providers, networking roads as well as ports of distribution. Toyota Motor Corp., the world’s leading automaker, Nissan Electric motor Co. and Honda Motor Co. halted production of all car plants in Japan. Toyota stocks had been down 7.2 %, although Honda down 3.8 percent; and Nissan falling 8.5% Mitsubishi Motors Corp. dove 9 %, and Isuzu Motors Ltd. lost 8.9 per cent.

The Bank of Japan injected 7 trillion yen into income markets to try and defend the already collapsing economy. Simply by flooding the banking system with money, the central bank hopes banks will continue to lend money as well as meet the likely upturn in demand for post-earthquake cash.

Falling oil demand from Japan sent crude gas prices down $1.57 to $99.59 a barrel. Additionally to the earthquake, gas costs fell from a scheduled day of direct orders in Saudi Arabia merely attracted a few hundred people. Oil merchants have been worried that violence in the Middle East and North Africa would spread for the world’s number one oil exporter.
