Headwaters, Inc. (NYSE:HW)

Small cap that does not make money. Maybe it will make money in the future but not going to bet on it with my money. Too many other better stocks on the market.

cheap real cheap

Badly beaten down over the last few years and can only go up from here.

Keep an eye out for long term trends, especially in this industry. It appears volitile and unpredictable at the present, but my bet is that in the long term this is a stable and reliable stock - over time.

value play

Falling 50-day moving average and one of the largest intraday high-low ranges (based on the average percent spread between the intraday high and low over the last fifty days).

This stock is set to pop, and I would expect with their "green" technology, especially for coal, this might hit $16/share in the next year. Small cap, hit by the housing downturn, but will move up. This is a great buying opportunity....

Given a new paradigm for energy, HW may not make the cut for sufficiently efficient, clean, and sustainable.

Even though it's got no tangible book value, and the stock has had the crap beat out of it, at this price it'll probably pop nicely when the economy turns. Also, it's in a good position to benefit in the USA's push for energy independence.

Clean energy - will benefit greatly from the Obama plan - at this price it is a steal.

Gone way too low and HW will recover in a big way when the economy gets recovers.

Domestic Coal to Clean Fuel- Gas & Diesel.

Approaching lows--things are bad and probably won't get better soon but long term--I like the clean coal and flyash business

Coal technologies should pay off within one year.
Construction segment hurt by decline in building. Will add to earning power when it turns.

The price of oil will begin to rise in the next year or so as economic activity picks up worldwide. With this economic expansion will come infrastructure projects. HW is represented in the energy area with its synthetic fuel business (breakeven at $35 per barrel oil price); its combustion technology and clean coal technology; and in the constrution business with its flyash cement products and decorative stone business. There is no way they cannot make money.

Exceptional company that has had a run of freakishly bad luck recently. Their building materials segment in particular should make a big comeback, as their insulator concrete will become increasingly used to meet higher building energy efficiency standards.

Also, the bottom line is significantly understated due to goodwill write-downs owing to the housing market; look at the adjusted income to getter a better picture of the firm's real economic value.

I know a bit about this company; mostly watching it since reported in Stocks 2007 TMF Report; watching it drop through the floor. Housing component has certainly faltered, the coal slurry might still prove interesting.

Have a lock on silt ponds, solid contracts- great play in alternative energy
