CAPS Rating:

The Company offers energy independence technologies utilizing domestic resources to economically produce ultra-clean synthetic fuels.

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.

Recs 0 (RTK) WPSPIKER (< 20) Submitted: 9/06/08 12:27 PM : Start Price: $2.11 RTK Score: -31.18 The company (RTK) Rentech Inc. "http://www.rentechinc.com/" has opened up a Fuel Proving Plant this past week (7th Aug2008) started producing the Synthetic Fuel in smaller volume using Nat. Gas as the base Carbon Bearing material. Note: that this process can use ANY carbon bearing material; Coal, Coke, Nat. Gas, Biomass ect. Previous ratings usually only mention coal whereas the actual process can use any heavily laden carbon source. They also have several other sources of income (fertilizer & chemical plants in operation) and have Upped their 4th quarter earnings expectations. The process also can produce other chemical materials other than Transportation Fuel, they can produce waxes Naphtha chemicals ect. The company has an excellent well thought plan for several large scale plants and are already negotiating for these plants to be built right next to or on the Carbon Source locations (Coal Mines and Nat Gas reserves.) They have built the low capacity plant at their Colorado Plant for fuel proving. The EPA and others are testing the fuel for all the required standard motor fuels. The fuel as made will work in Commercial Aviation as well as any Diesel engine I believe. So if you think of just air lines look at the volume of fuel that is required. The Company web site states that they already have many planed/thought out locations some contracted already with capabilities of producing thousands of Barrels per day. this leads me to believe that this is a well planned out company with future growth as a main concern as well as selling rights to use the patented process all over the world.!
