Oil and Gas Stocks News; EquityNet Research Initiates Analyst Coverage on American Petro-Hunter, Inc. (OTCBB: AAPH)


LOS ANGELES � May 23, 2011 (Investorideas.com energy newswire) - EquityNet Research, an independent West Coast equity research firm based in Los Angeles, announced today that it has initiated research coverage on American Petro-Hunter, Inc. (OTC.BB:AAPH).

A full copy of the report and disclosure requirements are available at EquityNet Research's website: www.equitynet.net.
American Petro-Hunter, Inc. is an emerging junior oil exploration and production (E&P) company that is actively seeking to capitalize on burgeoning demand and high oil prices by strategically acquiring and consolidating the operations of various properties (where possible), based on estimated reserves, ease of extraction and location.
Randy Lewis, CFA, Founder and Senior Analyst with EquityNet who is covering the Company, stated, "It is obvious that demand is and will remain very strong for oil into the foreseeable future and the market itself is huge. Valuations for most natural resource stocks have remained relatively strong and prices for the most part on the rise. Of course, oil prices have also skyrocketed this year. The late 2010 and early 2011 predictions of $80 a barrel this year have been blown out of the water, hitting nearly $127 a barrel at one point.
"Furthermore, it seems apparent that management enjoys strong relationships with various consultants, engineers and service providers in the regions in which it operates. We feel this could be a significant competitive advantage over similarly-sized peers."
