After decades of reliance on the Middle East and other foreign suppliers to meet our nation’s tremendous appetite for gas and oil, the U.S. has quickly emerged as one of the world’s top producers of these commodities bringing the country closer to the goal of complete energy independence.  Private energy companies are stepping up to play a large role in this resurgence, and that’s creating opportunities for investors to play their own important part in shaping America’s energy future, particularly where natural gas is concerned.  On this edition of Your Money Manual, Vince Annable welcomes Michael Knapp, President of MDS Energy Development, to talk about the growth of America’s natural gas industry and the key drivers of investment that could help to power its growth and sustainability well into the future.
