- Its business generates stable and growing contracted cash flows.

What the experts say:
Rockpoint Gas Storage was a top stock pick of Jerome Hass, portfolio manager at Lightwater Partners, in his recent appearance on BNN Bloomberg, calling the company a play on the growth in demand for natural gas throughout North America.
He noted that Rockpoint is a stable business with low capex because it is using caverns to store natural gas, adding that the company will buy gas when the prices drop and store it until it can resell at higher prices.
On November 17, 2025, JPMorgan analysts initiated coverage on Rockpoint Gas Storage with an ‘Overweight’ rating and a 12-month target price of C$31 per share.
The analysts noted the strategic advantage of Rockpoint’s facilities, which are positioned at the intersection of major pipeline networks and demand centers, allowing the company to provide balancing and reliability services to utilities, power generators, LNG exporters, and producers.
They added that that North American storage capacity has remained relatively static over the past decade, with minimal additions projected through the remainder of the decade.
