Great Lakes Dredge & Dock Corp (NASDAQ:GLDD)

As the scope of natural disasters increase with larger populations and climate change I see the demand for dredging companies to increase. GLDD's mission statement sounds ideal for the impending tasks of rebuilding the beaches of the east coast after Sandy and for making the drought stricken Mississippi River and Great Lakes navigable to commerce.

Gone about as far as they can go for now. They are spending money faster than they are making it [not sure why], and others who do what they do are moving ahead of them. I want to like this plucky company but something's gotta change.

3 words, dredging, dredging, dredging.

Changes in legislation will require Harbor Maintenance Trust Fund to distribute surplus funds to pay for domestic dredging projects. Huge need for domestic dredging work because US ports are shallower than international counterparts (and not deep enough for the largest ships). Expanding the Panama Canal (complete 2014) will only further expand need for deepening of US ports. Federally protected industry means that there are few companies that can compete for these projects.

Dredge & dock is an old line speculation on the Dubai and other Middle East boom, where the company is sending two dredges to add to those already in service. Estimated value @ $7.60 and could be higher on rwaction to any P-R type news.

Guaranteed paychecks thanks to Uncle Sam.

I see this one as a study growth stock based on the daily range. and 52 week avg. will run a price channel on request for any fool that asks on any stock.
