Jon Najarian’s Top 5 Predictions for 2012
Producer
“Fast Money” pro Jon “Dr. J” Najarian made 2012 predictions for the energy trade and one surprise — regarding Research In Motion.
1. Favorite Oil Plays
“I’m all over Marathon Oil [MRO

], and I bet Dan Dicker likes a lot of those, too,” he said. “My thinking here is that unfortunately because of cutoffs with the gulf and things that we’ve done to inhibit growth of our own energy as far as crude oil, I think those stocks will continue to do well.” Delay of the XL oil pipeline, Najarian said, while bad for the United States, will be good for these companies.
2. No Lumps of Coal
“If fossil fuel is becoming more near and dear, and there are really three ways to heat your home, it’s either going to be natural gas, nuclear or coal,” he said. “The green energy plays are not ready for prime time.” Dr. J. likes: Consol Energy [CNX

].
3. The Bakken Shale Play
“Berkshire Hathaway [BRK.A

] virtually owns the distribution network out of there to the Western United States,” Najarian said. For more direct plays, he likes Canadian Pacific [CP

].
5. New Owners for RIM?
“I think it gets bought out, despite the fact that the insiders own so much, and that’s always been the impediment,” he said. The time frame? First half of 2012, maybe even in the first quarter. “If you take out RIMM [RIMM
