Tom Konrad (So, uh, take a look at this.
On Monday morning,RBC Capital analyst Stuart Bush wrote a negative note on carbon-fiber producer Zoltek (ZOLT), warning that “significant margin pressure could result in profits for its fiscal third quarter coming in 5-6 cents a share below the Street consensus of 27 cents a share. Bush said that higher materials costs were likely to hurt margins. He also said that the company would likely cut estimates for the fourth quarter and the full year due...
How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the ZOLT
(Mon, 04 Aug 2008 05:42:00 -0400)H.J. Huney submits:
While it's a debatable issue, it's quite possible that carbon fiber is the greatest stuff on Earth! Carbon fiber has tensile strength roughly four times greater than steel despite having a much lighter weight. It is used in many applications ranging from wind turbines to aircraft brakes to bicycles. Over the next few decades, it is almost inevitable that its use will be expanded into even more products. Given the great growth prospects, it makes sense to take a look one of the companies most primed for growth in the industry: low-cost carbon fiber producer Zoltek (ZOLT)
Five American Innovators to Buy During the Current Downturn
(Sun, 27 Jul 2008 16:55:41 -0400)Guy Bennett submits:
With the gloomy financial news coming out of Wall Street, it may be tempting to bail out of all US equities and invest in a Russian ETF. But that would be a bad decision. A bear market creates buying opportunities.
We invest to make money but your portfolio can also reflect your moral and nationalistic ideals. A country is a family. Everyone matters. Never quit. Never turn your back. I recommend buying innovative American companies with a significant customer base in emerging markets (line your pockets while reducing the trade imbalance). The current landscape is littered with...

Global Regulation Trend Favors PowerShares Global Clean Energy
(Fri, 13 Jun 2008 10:39:26 -0400)Don Dion submits:
The U.N. Climate Change Panel last year proposed a goal of reducing greenhouse gas emissions 50% by 2050?a reduction believed to forestall temperature increases large enough to cause widespread famines, droughts, species loss and coastal flooding. Achieving that goal would cost more than $45 trillion, according to a report released last week by the International Energy Agency. The job would require massive investments in alternative energies such as wind, as well as construction of around 1,400 nuclear power plants, the report claims. Assuming 3.3% global economic growth between 2010 and 2050, the IEA projects that it...
Transmission, Tax Issues Threaten Growth of US Wind Power
(Fri, 06 Jun 2008 03:44:19 -0400)Research Recap submits:
Transmission issues continue to limit the potential of wind power in the U.S., even as the industry makes progress on most other fronts. That’s one of the findings of the 2007 Annual Report on U.S. Wind Power Installation, Cost, and Performance Trends.
In addition, “2009 is likely to be a difficult year of industry retrenchment” if the production tax credit is not renewed, the report concludes.
