Ballard Power Systems, Inc. (USA) (BLDP)

CAPS Rating:
*

The Company is focused on the design, development, manufacture, sale and service of PEM fuel cells for a variety of applications.

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.

This company sold off its most promising work to the auto companies years ago. The market for stand-alone fuel cell power plants seems always just over the horizon. Meanwhile they bleed cash. Unfortunately fuel cells are the alternative energy future that was but is no longer.

fuel cells are a scam, with a background in engineering, i can tell you they are a ways away. Besides, oil is starting to calm down and i expect it may jump around a little, but its gonna come down. no commodity ever just stays sky high.

And adjusted for inflation, oil has ticked down in value for serveral years between the 70's and now.

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!
