International Coal Group, Inc. (ICO)

CAPS Rating:
****

The Company is a producer of coal in Northern and Central Appalachia with a range of mid to high Btu, low to medium sulfur steam and metallurgical coal.

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.

I hate coal. I don't buy coal stocks, but I still think they will make money. Demand is outstripping supply in many parts of the world, and China is now importing coal. The coal run isn't over yet.

I bought this stock on Monday. On Wednesday and Thursday it bled all over the place. My stop-market sell order actually kicked in right after the market opened today because it had fallen so much. Guess what? I went right out and bought it again. Here's why.

There was no substantial reason for coal stocks to fall this much at the start of the quarter. The same factors that caused them to skyrocket over the 2nd quarter are still in place right now. Institutions that rode the coal wave this past quarter are cashing in all at once. This is a hot stock that just went on sale and I'm sticking with it.

Coal is being looked at as Americas way to combat foreign oil dependency. Going in for a few years on this.
