Pacific Ethanol, Inc. (PEIX)

CAPS Rating:
*

The Company is engaged in the production, marketing and sale of ethanol and other renewable fuels in the Western 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 players 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.

It is immoral and also stupid to burn food when millions are starving. The cost of food has gone way up, in part because greedy farmers have planted all available land with corn to make ethanol...
When will our dumb government see the stupidity of it all and end those immoral subsidies???

The company is terrible. Their financial information shows just how terrible they are especially at a time when the US still supports distillation based ethanol facilities. They have no current/legitimate plans to produce non-distillation based ethanol. They'll crash and burn at this rate.

Keeps gasoline cars on the road. Helps with price. And I am willing to pay more for food that is produced in the US than oil produced else where. Just wish they had an E85 station around me.

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