Bullish on CCK ...

Analyst

A big cost factor in cans is the price of aluminum. A big factor in the price of aluminum is energy...it is very energy intensive to manufacture.

This stock has 3 things going for it. First, if the price of oil comes down, CCKs costs come down and profits go up. Second, soda, no matter how lousy the economy, will continue to be bought in super markets....it's a consumer staple. And third, CCK is involved in the manufacture of a beverage can that is capable of chilling the contents inside.
