Rating a stock in CAPS consists of three components:

Your call - Will this stock outperform or underperform the S&P 500? Successful picks are measured in terms of whether or not you were correct and by how many percentage points.

Your time frame - A guideline for other members to see whether your thinking is short or long-term. Time frame is also used to calculate the stock rating, but is not used in the scoring of your pick.

Your pitch - Here's your chance to offer more detailed thoughts, analysis, concerns, or the rationale behind your call. The pitch is optional and may be added later.

Each time you rate a stock, CAPS updates the community intelligence for the company, which may or may not change its CAPS rating. For more information, visit the Help tab at the top of the page.

With the growing energy demands from Asia, there will be growing demand for oil and gas exploration, and ALY can supply the services to these companies.

If states repeal drilling moratoriums and domestic exploration and extraction increases, this company should stand to profit handsomley.





Has been on an acquisition buying spree in 2007 when prices were high and likely overpaid, and has continued to purchase companies since then. This growth-by-acquisition strategy is a little scary, but they might as well try to capitalize on high oil prices driving expansion while this oil boom period lasts.

Add that Carlos Slim holds about 6%, this could lead to greater contacts with oil and gas exploration companies in Mexico, and possibly South America. Potential for growth, growth and more growth.

$14.50 is a great entry price for ALY and $17.50 is going to be my exit point.
