PEIX: Bull or Bear?
Growth in Corn Harvest Means Good News for Ethanol Producers
PEIX
-70.87%
in
478 days
Good news for ethanol producers like ADM (ADM), Verasun (VSE) and Pacifc Ethanol (PEIX).
The U.S. Department of Agriculture forecast that farmers will harvest 12.3 billion bushels of corn, up more than 570 million bushels from last month's estimate of 11.7 billion. That's down 6% from last year's record crop of 13.1 billion bushels, but 17% above the 2006 harvest.

Ethanol Is Oversold: Three Bounce Stocks - Barron's
PEIX
-80.82%
in
544 days
Once-in-vogue ethanol stocks have taken a beating over the past year as investors went from wildly bullish to wildly bearish due to concerns about a production glut, and claims ethanol is a driving force behind rising food prices -- which could threaten its coveted government subsidies. But Barron's Andrew Bary thinks the ethanol rally will resume. "The stocks are depressed, the businesses are profitable and the companies generally trade below the replacement cost of their ethanol plants."<!---->

All ethanol stocks have been crashing lately as it was reported there was a surplus of ethanol than the demand. A recent senate bill however massively boosts the mandate for ethanol use from 7.5 billion gallons in 2012 to 36 billion gallons by 2022. This should be a nice push for all these stocks.

Bio fuels to light up the stage...

Alternate fuels, mainly Bio-based, especially those derived from Corn, are poised for a huge bull-run. The reasons could range from enviro-concerns to patriotism, or simply the common-sense of renewable resources. PEIX is a safe bet, coz they R known to have a stake in actual cornfields, so even if the price of corn goes up/down PEIX still wins. Ethanol is the industry of tomorrow... Get in and catch the wave or be left out in the cold.

There have long been critics of ethanol with good reasons it can't and won't replace oil. But they've been a quieter, fringe group. That is, they've been fringe until recently, when it seems like everyone is coming to terms the idea that ethanol is probably not viable for a number of reasons (inefficient, input prices, impact on food supply and tillable land, addiction to taxpayer subsidies, etc.). I hold out some hope that ethanol will be good for the environment and our political situation, and I'll revisit the stock if it drops down to about $10. But I suspect ethanol will turn out ...

Even G.W. Bush addressed renewable energy in his latest speech and announced a turnaround in American energy politic. German analysts rate Pacific Ethanol Inc. as a "buy". Although there was a hype about green energy, there is a stable ground around 15-16 US$ and it is expected that the stock rises up to 22 US$ within 2007. Earnings for 2007 are awaited to rise by 5-times.

State of the Union to Address Ethanol

Bush's State of the Union Address this Tuesday is sure to include something about our dependence on oil. Just like last time, the shares of alternative sources of fuel that he specifically mentions are sure to rally. In particular, I like Pacific Ethanol, a resonably priced stock with a large dependence on corn as a fuel source. This will be a quick trade, if the stock doesn't jump much by Wednesday, it's out. I picked up a bunch today to add to my position and I'm confident this will be a very profitable flip.

1. The price of oil is on the declne.
2. The current administration will do its best to keep the price of oil (the price of gas) down -- they have an election to win.
3. Companies that develop ethanol and alternative fuels can only compete when the price of oil is high. These technologies are not cost effective when the price of gas is cheap.
4. Ethanol Companies already sport ludicrously rediculous valuations.

I'm an idiot for not selling at 42. But now the stock has settled into an attractive price again. People may sell off due to the slipping oil prices, but I think ethanol is here to stay. PEIX is uniquely positioned in that it is a west-coast company. Most ethanol producers are in the midwest, making it expensive to move the fuel to large population centers. PEIX's home territory is abundant with people and crops alike.

Good by fossil fuel, hello Ethanol. A long term play in the energy market. One of the few, if not only, publicly held ethanol refineries. Bill Gates is also a major shareholder through one of his companies.
