“We’ve been very active on the energy side for the past month since crude was down at $48 a barrel and we’re going to continue,” Smalls told CNBC. “In this environment, companies that have a good solid management team and a history of hedging get rewarded. And Ultra Petroleum fits that bill.”

“Crude had a multi-year run up and one of the reasons was because of increasing basic demand in China,” said Campbell. “And then there was a sharp drop-off in demand after the Olympics in the third and fourth quarter, of half a million barrels a day. [But] it’s projected to increase in the second and third quarter.”
