Reliant Energy, Inc. (RRI)

worth $30 a year ago. Probably worth $10 now. I love riding this one up. It should reverse its trend this week. definitely a great short term buy. This is a fun one to trade on a monthly basis based on its patterns

This year EPS: -.56
Next year EPS estimate: .08
This makes the forward P/E of this stock 70.5
Current P/E is negative
I'm a seller until the forward p/e gets to atleast 30

Energy will be a costly commodity as the recession eases,good starting point 6-7 dollar range,I see 10 by end of year.

Although still operating at a loss, the trend is toward profitatble operations within a year. Also, the key industry analysts rate the company as a sell, and the industry analysts are idiots.

Solid infrastructure behind the company. I think that they have seen the bottom and will begin a steady recoveryin 2Q 2009.

God Enough

Can't go wrong with an energy company at this low of a PE

A PE of 1.66 for a large utility like Reliant is too much to pass up.

Nice PE for energy stock. Trying to catch the bottom for long term hold.

way undervalued.

quality,regional utility provider, badly hit by Ike, recently downgraded, trading at a very low price, looks like a time to start a long term position.

What goes down must come up, right???

Reliant hit by literal headwinds of Ike along declines in nat gas, but doubt its heading bk with recent capital raise; likely cheap in here around $7 for patient longs.

I need a little diversity in my portfolio. I think this will be a great addition. I think I see a turn around coming for this one.

Reliant Energy does a fair job at cutting costs for thier costomers and I believe this will be a hot summer.

I've been watching this roller coaster for the last year. I think they are poised to outperform in the near term.

Reliant went through some very hard times after they were found to be involved in the Enron fiasco. After getting themselves back on track by making amends with the agencies involved; they have sold off most if not all the overseas holdings, keeping most of their domestic holdings and concentrating on being the power company the end users are looking for. Striving to be #1 in reliability and provide a competitive price cost that is as competitive as any electric power provider. Most of their market fluctuation it appears is due to buyers being unsure of company practices after previous displays. A lot of the volatility in the market doesn't have the effect on elec power producers as it does on other industries. A lot of the fluctuation comes from skeptisism inside the market due to the volatility of other stocks due to economy influence; also theirs still a little fear factor lingering from the past.

This is an energy company that is willing to cut their own employees to increase their stock price. They have proven this time and time again with outsourcing and downsizing with a whatever it takes mentality. RRI has not come close to it's high yet.
