FTEK (FUEL-TECH, N.V. )
"I
have repeatedly said that, in this country, we have a government that
is of, by
and gloriously for the corporations.
Now, I’m absolutely right about this. No ifs, ands
or buts. But
sometimes the little guy can come out on top!
When I say the little guy... I'm just talking about smaller
corporations.
Sometimes the gov't will help them, over the bigger ones.
Do you mind if I give you an example? In the Sunday paper
federal court
blocks loosening of EPA standards, a federal court ruled that the EPA
needs to
enforce pollution control guidelines. They need to make sure
that power
plants have up-to-date pollution control equipment, like the law says.
Now, because Eliot Spitzer (attorney general, NY) led a lawsuit for the
14
states involved, these clean air guidelines, they're going to be
enforced.
So, is this a victory for the people? The
environmentalists? The
states? Is this a defeat for corporate America?
Of
course not! This is a win for fuel tech (FTEK)!
If our power companies have to spend more money on nitrogen oxide
controls, then
the pin action - the money that should go to different companies is
going to
end up in the hands of FTEK, because they're the ones that make
precisely the
kinds of equipment to fix the problem.
So this Spitzer contingent, and FTEK, should keep winning these
cases.
It's going to go to the full panel - they will win. It's
going to go to
the Supremes - again, using my considerable, but totally lacking
Harvard law
school analysis, it's money in the bank for FTEK.
All the utilities will have to upgrade; they'll have to reduce their
emissions.
FTEK is en fuego. You know how hot this business
is? How hot was
before this ruling?
Back on march 10th, FTEK reported 4th qtr revenue growth of
110%. Annual
revenue growth of 72%! People will pay anything for that kind
of growth,
anything! As long as they know about it.
Which is why I think
this stock, even at its 52-week high, can still make you some mad money.
They've only just started selling in Mexico and china. Those
guys are
fabulous environment destroyers. So, this is the
beginning. Not the
middle or the end of a fabulous growth story!
Right now, this stock is only covered by one analyst; it's a veritable
tree
falling in the woods.
(the analyst's) estimates are shy of the company's guidance.
Now, if the
co. beats that guidance, they will have grown their earnings at 35% for
the
year.
Their forward price-to-earnings ratio is 26.3. That multiple
is well
below its growth rate.
On Jim Cramer’s mad money, we're willing to pay up to twice
the growth rate in
the price-to-earnings multiple.
And, if you don't believe me, check out the gospel according to Jim
Cramer’s Real Money: Sane Investing in an Insane World,
no longer thrown around, as befitting a true best seller.
What's that mean to me? It means the guys who manage growth
funds;
they'll be willing to pay a lot more for this stock if they only knew
about
it. I think that exposure is coming. I know they
all watch the darn
show, so now they've got it, and when it does, I think you should all
be in
FTEK.
Now, one caveat. If I were you, I would wait until
Monday. Let it
come in - not everybody watches the darn show - and that's your chance.
The bottom line: I only care about getting rid of pollution
if it can
make you money. This stock, FTEK, that's a moneymaker!"
