Consolidated Water Co. Ltd. (CWCO)

CAPS Rating:
***

The Company develops and operates seawater desalination plants and water distribution systems in areas where naturally occurring supplies of potable water are scarce or nonexistent.

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.

Access to the largest source of water on the planet which all things need to live - how can this process not be valuable? Desalination will become more and more important as populations increase worldwide and put additional strain on groundwater reserves.

Hey, I love water as much as the next guy. But I won't pay for the bottled stuff when I can get it for practically free on tap -- and I won't pay 35 times TTM earnings for a company that generates negative free cash flow, either. (Heck, for that price, I could pick up a Coke and half a share of Peps...More

The process of desalinating water to sustain life just astounds me. This company will make a difference as we move to create renewable resources.

With plenty of liquid assets, if you'll excuse the pun and a growing industry I think there is plenty of potential here. earnings didn;t keep pace with revenue growth last year, but I think if the next round of announcements they can get to the industry std of about 2.5% we may see more interest.
I'll probably buy in if it cracks $20

This is more of a gut pick, but I am basing it on some intuition. My thoughts are that the weather patterns will continue to grow more unpredictable, and pollution will continue to contaminate fresh water supplies creating a shortage on drinkable water. Desalination will become more and more utilized and companies in the industry, like Consolidated, will profit. GE and other larger cap firms stand to obtain an absolute advantage in revenue gained, however their stock is so diluted with other businesses that the benefit would not be as pronounced.

Man needs water. The world trending is going to more people and less fresh water. If this company does not flourish as the crap gets closer to the proverbial fan, it is because they will be purchased for their knowledge and facilities.
