Don't Burn That Coal Just Yet
ACI
-52.30%

Yesterday, I went into my backyard to grill some tasty treats, as it was a pleasant evening and...well...grilled food be good. As I cleaned out my Weber to start my fire, I went into my shed to pick up some fuel for the fire - and lo and behold nothing was there. My coal was stolen. I figured, why steal coal now? I mean, coal shares are in the midst of a nasty correction. Why in the world would anyone want to try to catch that falling knife? In such a situation most people would have just went out and bought more charcoal, but not me. I had a hunger - but not for burgers.

I bought 300 ACI at $57.75 and was stopped out for a -$120 loss. I'll post the chart later, but the coals fell this morning due to CNX's miss. After gapping lower, they all spiked with strength, then retraced. I bought expecting further strength but it crumbled on me, past my stop loss.

We are maintaining our Buy recommendation on Arch
Coal and increasing our 2008 earnings estimate from
$2.37 per share to $2.64 per share. With international
and domestic coal prices at record levels, Arch s
market driven strategy should help maximize its reserve
base. Having significant unpriced volumes of 60% and
77% in 09 and 10, respectively and recently pricing
several million tons of 2008 unpriced production at
significant premiums to Q1 08 prices, we feel that ACI
will experience significant earnings growth in the near
term. Additionally, In Central Appal...

The price of coal is going up and will continue to go up as the world begins to realise that (1)biofuels is a scam both environmentally and politically.(2)South Africa's coal mines will continue to be shut for sometime due to energy shortages,(3)China and India(it is setting up numerous ultramega power projects -a grandiose title for powerplants mainly coal based -even assuming 25% of the promised projects actually come on stream coal consumption is going to increase).(4)Natural gas powerplants will also have its role but it is not easy to transport,so China will continue to burn coal.When< /><>< />...

Arch coal reported better than expected fourth quarter earnings of $0.56 per share, beating ou EPS expectations by 44%. Strong results were associated with the early start-up and Q4 contribution from the Mountain Laurel longwall which doubled ACI s metallurgical and PCI sales and will continue to boost margins in the region as well. The company s market driven strategy has paid off as prices have remained near record levels and a significant portion of its 2008 and 2009 production is unpriced. This will allow them to leverage their reserve base and should give them great momentum throughout...
