Why New Era Helium (NEHC) Is Crashing This Week
We recently published a list of Energy Stocks that are Losing This Week. In this article, we are going to take a look at where New Era Helium, Inc. (NASDAQ:NEHC) stands against other energy stocks that are crashing this week. After a promising start to the year, the overall energy sector has fallen by almost 5.5% since the beginning of 2025. However, it still beats the 9.9% decline suffered by the wider market. The major reason behind this downturn is the plunge in global crude oil price, caused by the continued uncertainty surrounding the ongoing tariff war, the prospects of an economic slowdown, and the recent decision by OPEC+ to increase supply in May. The WTI crude oil price, which stood at just over $71 a barrel in the beginning of April, plunged to below $60 before again resurging to around $64.3 currently. To put additional pressure on the sector, the International Energy Agency recently cut its 2025 oil demand growth forecast by 300,000 barrels per day compared to last month, warning the world to 'buckle up' amid the escalating trade tensions. Moreover, OPEC also cut its 2025 global oil demand growth forecast for the first time since December last week, expecting the demand to rise by 1.30 million bpd in 2025 and by 1.28 million bpd in 2026. Both figures are down 150,000 bpd from last month's estimates. A pipeline of natural gas cutting through a rural landscape. To collect data for this article, we have referred to several stock screeners to find energy stocks that have fallen the most between April 15 to April 22, 2025. The following are the Energy Stocks that Lost the Most This Week. The stocks are ranked according to their share price decline during this period.

Our quarterly newsletter's strategy selects 14 small-cap and large-cap stocks every quarter and has returned 373.4% since May 2014, beating its benchmark by 218 percentage points (). Share Price Decline Between Apr. 15 and Apr. 22: 10.11% New Era Helium, Inc. (NASDAQ:NEHC) is an energy company that extracts helium from natural gas reserves in North America. New Era Helium, Inc. (NASDAQ:NEHC) recently announced an extension to the construction timeline of its Pecos Slope plant project, which is now expected to be operational in Q4 2024, instead of the initially forecasted Q2. The company revealed prolonged negotiations and financing challenges during the de-SPAC process to be the primary factors behind the delay. That said, New Era Helium, Inc. (NASDAQ:NEHC) revealed last week that it is making progress in its plans for a new data center with Sharon AI. The joint venture intends to close on the acquisition of the 235-acre site within the next 90 days, marking a critical milestone toward construction and commercialization.

Why New Era Helium, Inc (NEHC) Stock Crashed This Week
We recently published a list of Energy Stocks that are Losing This Week. In this article, we are going to take a look at where New Era Helium, Inc (NASDAQ:NEHC) stands against other energy stocks that are losing this week. The global energy industry has faced a major setback this week after there were serious concerns of an escalating global trade war and a looming economic slowdown. After China hit back at President Trump's tariffs with 34% duties on all US goods, global oil prices plunged over 8%, heading for their lowest close since the height of the Covid-19 pandemic in 2021. Moreover, the US natural gas price at Henry Hub has also fallen by around 7.5% amid broad market selling. While the Trump administration has given exemptions to oil, gas, and refined products in its swapping tariffs, the threat of inflation and slowing economic growth have weighed down energy prices. JP Morgan has stated that it now sees a 60% chance of a global economic recession by year end, up from 40% previously. To put further pressure on oil prices, OPEC+ has decided to accelerate plans for output increases, with the group now aiming to supply 411,000 barrels per day (bpd) to the market in May, up from the previously planned 135,000 bpd. As a result, Goldman Sachs analysts have sharply reduced their December 2025 forecasts, cutting Brent and WTI targets by $5 each to $66 and $62 per barrel, respectively.

To collect data for this article, we have referred to several stock screeners to find energy stocks that have fallen the most between March 27 to April 3, 2025.

Share Price Decline Between Mar. 27 and Apr. 3: 35.7% Topping our list of the Stocks that Lost the Most This Week is New Era Helium, Inc (NASDAQ:NEHC), an energy company that extracts helium from natural gas reserves in North America. The recent downturn in the share price of New Era Helium, Inc (NASDAQ:NEHC) could be due to profit-taking by investors after the stock surged by almost 82% last month following the announcement that NEHC was advancing its plans for a new data center with Sharon AI. The decline was further intensified due to a broader sell-off in the market, which was a result of an escalating global trade war and the threat of a global economic slowdown. Moreover, NEHC revealed in February that it had amended its Equity Purchase Facility Agreement (EPFA) with an institutional investor to sell up to $75 million of its common stock. Under the revised agreement, the purchase price per share is set at 95% of the market price. Overall, NEHC ranks 1st on our list of the energy stocks that lost the most this week. While we acknowledge the potential of energy companies, our conviction lies in the belief that AI stocks hold greater promise for delivering higher returns, and doing so within a shorter time frame.

Why is New Era Helium, Inc (NEHC) Losing This Week?
We recently published a list of Energy Stocks that are Losing This Week. In this article, we are going to take a look at where New Era Helium, Inc (NASDAQ:NEHC) stands against other energy stocks that are losing this week. In this article, we are going to discuss the energy stocks that are losing this week. President Donald Trump is seeking to lower energy costs for American consumers with a focus on the oil and gas sector, pushing the industry to increase production rapidly. However, industry executives have been nothing but skeptical of the President's policies given the declining oil prices and the constant uncertainty regarding the administration's tariff policy. The imposition of the 25% steel tariff has already led oil and gas companies to estimate a 4% increase in costs for drilling a well. Moreover, the US is already the largest oil producer on the planet. The country's oil and gas operators produced more than 13.49 million barrels of crude per day in December 2024, an all-time high rate of production. Increasing the production even higher means a further decline in prices, reducing the profits for producers and refiners. The spot price of the US benchmark for crude oil, West Texas Intermediate, is currently hovering just below $70, and analysts at S&P Global Commodity Insights expect WTI to average $66 per barrel in 2025. For comparison, the average WTI crude oil price for 2024 came in at $76.55. That said, as of the writing of this piece, the broader energy sector has gained 7.5% since the beginning of the year, against a decline of around 3% by the wider market.

Our quarterly newsletter's strategy selects 14 small-cap and large-cap stocks every quarter and has returned 373.4% since May 2014, beating its benchmark by 218 percentage points (see more details here). Share Price Decline Between Mar. 17 and Mar. 24: 16.97% New Era Helium, Inc (NASDAQ:NEHC) is an energy company extracting helium from natural gas reserves in North America. The stock of New Era Helium, Inc (NASDAQ:NEHC) had risen by over 47% between March 10 and March 17, 2025, so the recent decline last week seems to be due to investors taking their profits. NEHC had surged following the announcement that it was advancing its plans for a new data center with Sharon AI. The two companies are planning to acquire 200 acres in West Texas for the development of a 250MW AI/HPC data center that will be powered via natural gas from New Era. Overall, NEHC ranks 1st on our list of energy stocks that are losing this week.

Sharon AI And New Era Helium Announce Letter of Intent to Acquire 200-Acre Site Intended For 250MW Net-Zero Energy AI/HPC Data Center in Texas
NEW YORK, February 27, 2025--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Sharon AI, Inc. ("Sharon AI"), a High-Performance Computing ("HPC") business focused on Artificial Intelligence ("AI"), Cloud GPU Compute Infrastructure and Data Storage and New Era Helium Inc. (Nasdaq: NEHC), a leading exploration and production company, provide an operational update for their joint venture regarding an intended 250MW Net-Zero Energy AI/HPC Data Center joint venture in Ector County, Texas. Sharon AI also recently announced that it had entered into a Business Combination Agreement with Roth CH Acquisition Co (OTC Markets: USCTF). The non-binding LOI was signed with GROW Odessa, an economic development corporation formed in 1966 to assist businesses with expansion and to attract new compatible industry to Odessa. GROW Odessa has a successful track record of attracting new business opportunities to Ector County and intends to work with TCDC as a first mover to initiate a behind the meter Data Center Campus with an intended pathway to Net Zero Energy. Ector County is expected to be well suited for Net Zero Energy due to existing CO2 infrastructure and its ability to facilitate Carbon Capture Utilization Storage ('CCUS") via enhanced oil recovery. The acquisition of the large-scale, 200-acre site is contingent on completion of due diligence and negotiation of definitive documents and is expected to occur within the next ninety days. This site is one of several identified by the joint venture and is located near key infrastructure, including fiber optic cable, two natural gas transmission lines, and CO₂ pipeline infrastructure. The intended utilization of CCUS and energy transition technologies makes it an attractive location for developing scalable, energy-efficient AI/HPC infrastructure. Work has commenced on plans for the data center, natural gas-fired power plant and fiber connectivity, with the expectation of bringing the initial phase of the project online in late 2026. TCDC also expects to finalize a natural gas supply contract with New Era Helium in Q2 2025, providing low-cost energy and price stability for the project. The next project milestones are expected to include updates on certain entitlements for the site, selection of power generation and CO2 capture technology, appointment of technology partners, as well as ongoing conversations with potential offtake partners, which may include hyperscalers and other large energy users. Wolf Schubert, CEO of Sharon AI Inc., commented "We are very excited to be developing large scale data center infrastructure in the U.S. with our partners at New Era Helium, who bring considerable energy infrastructure experience to the joint venture. We believe the recently announced Stargate Project, including companies such as OpenAI, Softbank and Oracle, which intends to invest hundreds of billions building new AI infrastructure in the United States, highlights the potential demand for large scale data center and power capacity." Will Gray, CEO of New Era Helium Inc., commented "With the initial site now identified, TCDC is poised to execute on its planned power strategy for the behind the meter data center campus. New Era Helium is pleased to be working with GROW Odessa and will work towards the necessary due diligence in order to close on the planned site in a timely manner. While working on the closing of the site in Ector County, the Company is in parallel working with certain contractors for the design and buildout of the 250MW data center campus. We are excited about what we are building within the Permian Basin and believe access to cheap and reliable power is key to attracting top tier partners." Russell Tippin, President of GROW Odessa, commented: "We are thrilled to be working with Sharon AI and New Era Helium on this new project intended to develop a large-scale, net-zero energy data center in Ector County, West Texas. Ector County and the Odessa area are the perfect fit for this net-zero energy data center project and we are proud that Sharon AI has chosen Ector County for this exciting new project. We are looking forward to working with Sharon AI and New Era Helium, Inc. along with the team at the Odessa Development Corporation to move this project to the finish line."
