WPRT: Bull or Bear?

Westport Innovations: Trucks for the 21st Century Graphic_rating_buy WPRT
+63.02%
in 487 days

Filed under: Stocks to Buy

Westport logoCutting-edge gas engine manufacturer Westport Innovations (WPRT), which I first wrote about on March 19, 2010, at a price of $15.43, has seen its shares meander near $15 to $17 for the past six months, but that in no way detracts from the promising long-term view.

Note: I consider Westport to be a high-risk stock not suitable for low-risk/moderate-risk investors.

Westport develops high-performance internal combustion engines and fuel systems that run on natural gas, biomethane, and hydrogen.

Nat Gas Revolution Graphic_rating_buy WPRT

 +38.85%

I believe the BP disaster will bring more focus on natural gas as an alternative fuel. The odds are pretty good the nat gas bill will pass within the next 12 months which will have a significant impact on WPRT. It is just a matter of time that Wall Street picks up on the enormous growth potential of this well run company. My price target is conservative if the NAT GAS Act becomes reality.

Readers of this space know that the investment tack preferred here tilts toward demonstrated business models. But every once in a while, an exception is made, Westport Innovations (WPRT) is one, and is worth a review.

Note: I consider Westport to be a high-risk stock not suitable for low-risk/moderate-risk investors.

Westport is hoping is it on the cutting edge of a structural change in transportation fuel use. Already common as a fuel for home heat, electric power generation, and for commercial use, natural gas' next hurdle -- perhaps its biggest hurdle -- concerns ...

Westport Innovations- I really like this technical pattern, a nice 45 degree rising channel, pulled back and tested, bounced sharply on a move a week ago and then consolidated for four days before breaking out Thursday with a slight follow through Friday. I think it gets to the top of channel 14.00-14.50 range! <o:p> </o:p>
