National Fuel Gas Q2 Preview: I'm Not Too Confident In The Short Term
Analysts expect strong Q2 '25 earnings for National Fuel Gas Company, but I remain cautious due to the company's history of missing estimates and macroeconomic uncertainties. I will watch for any updates on the 2025 outlook, especially given recent economic shifts and potential impacts from the tariff war. The company's exposure to natural gas price fluctuations and infrastructure costs due to tariffs could affect future profitability and capex plans.
