Dow Inc. Thrives On Growing Gap Between U.S. & Europe Natural Gas Prices

North American production gives DOW a structural advantage as global natural gas prices rise, especially amid European and Asian supply risks. Cost-cutting measures and favorable market dynamics, partly driven by the Iran conflict, are stabilizing earnings despite recent sales and net loss declines. DOW’s dividend yield near 5% supports a hold strategy if shares trade sideways, balancing income and capital appreciation potential.

Dow Inc. (DOW) struggled to navigate through a tough market environment in the past few years. Sales prices did not keep pace with sales costs, gradually leading to a deterioration in earnings.
