Cramer is bullish primarily because $CTRA has gained only 4.0% since mid-December even though the natural gas futures have rallied a whopping 33% during the same time.
He’s constructive on Coterra Energy stock even though the New York listed firm missed Street estimates for revenue in its third financial quarter by some $27 million.
The energy stock traded at a high of $35 in May of 2022.

Reasons other than a surge in natural gas that he cited for his view on the Houston-headquartered firm include expectation of an exceptionally cold weather in the coming week.
Lower temperatures often mean higher utility bills, but PG&E says regulator-approved rate changes will account for lower natural gas prices than last winter.
