CAPS Rating:
*

The Company is considered development stage as its only asset is its investment in Energy LLC. The Company's plan is to become an ethanol producer in the United States.

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.

BIOF is supported by Cargill Inc. and are building ethanol plants next to Cargill's silos. BIOF will be a medium to major supplier of alternative fuel in the years to come.

Ethanol, except for possibly from cellulose, is a looser in the US, as the costs are too high. If you want a good long-term solution the answer is bio-diesel. The problem is that the current energy bill in the US will support this venture, even if it is not the way to go, and would lose money if not for the government subsidy.
I am bullish on renewable energy and energy stocks overall, but see this stock as a limited upside as the prices of the feedstock that will support their plants (ie food sugars) go up in price.

Lucky for me the price jumped up enough to go above the market cap long enough for an underperform call.

The biofuel industry is going to be big money in a few years. This company seems to be on the right track with its expansion and ties to major players- cargil. I believe given enough time and patience this company can outperform the market.

Clicking "Beat this Stock!" will bring you to a company with a higher rating than the one you're currently viewing.

Even though CAPS shows only one- to five-star rankings, behind the scenes, all companies in CAPS have a distinct numerical ranking. In other words, there is a No. 1 stock in CAPS and a worst-ranked stock in CAPS. When you arrive at the top-ranked stock, clicking "Beat this Stock!" will cause the page to refresh.

That is, until there is a new No. 1 stock!
