Rail car industry has been under supplied. Economy and aging of cars forcing re-orders. Several years of growth ahead now and will reach last highs in short order.

I see short covering people. Oil is going even a bit higher and rail demand will improve.

I'm experimenting with a particular stock screen. Super low PE, PEG and P/B with a great growth rate makes this an attractive stock.

Rail roads will be in demand.
new government regulation could boost tanks car sales.
International expanding company.
new plants coming on line. Increasing margins.
Hedges steel prices to lock in profits of railroad cars.
Services contracts should heat up.

Railroad companies appear to have overbought railcars over the past couple years and now demand is going to drop off. This has already affected the stock price but I don't anticipate it recovering any time soon. It is also a competitve market and if Ichan may be interest in buying Greenbrier (total speculation) then that may be a better railcar stock to consider than American Railcar.

As gas prices continue climbing, look to old fashion rail transport to step up to fill the void left by the decline of the trucking company & independent truckers. The infrastructure is already in place. Look for heavier rail traffic as Americans finally face the truth & realize gas prices are never going to be $2 a gallon again!

Business: American Railcar Industries, Inc.
Nasdaq: ARII
Designs, manufactures, and markets hopper and tank railcars in North America. The company operates in two segments, Manufacturing and Railcar Services.
Reasons to be interested:
1. As I've mentioned several times before, railroad freight in general has been picking up a lot of steam recently with rising fuel prices and higher costs for the trucking industry. Railroad freight has become an efficient option for freight transit and as a result the industry has been booned with higher margins and a boom of business.
2. The company's cash flow production has been very strong over the past couple years, producing $60.23 million in fiscal 2007 compared to $29.97 million in fiscal 2006. Net income has jumped from $1.52 million ($0.14 per share) in fiscal 2005 to $37.26 million ($1.74 per share) in fiscal 2007. Plus, the company's balance sheet is pretty healthy with $303.88 million in cash and $275 million in debt.
3. Billionaire investor Carl Icahn is the company's largest shareholder and chairman, owning 11,587,945 shares out of a total of 21,300,000 shares. Other executives have much experience with the company and industry as well.
Main risk:
1. The company's cash flow and earnings production only recently have started to become consistent, largely because several years ago the railroad industry was not in good shape. However, if the company's inconsistency was more than a result of industry troubles, it could be difficult to create long-term stability.
