I am adding a new coal name here but unlike the others this one will (I think) only be a shorter term trade: James River Coal (JRCC) has dropped from $60 to $41 in 2 sessions, or about a 32% loss for people buying 2 days ago.

It is unprofitable this year but should show a massive amount of profits next year as it is very unhedged in its pricing for 2009. At a $1 Billion market cap it is also a buyout candidate. Maybe I am convincing myself to keep it longer, as I type this :)

Talking about risks, Barron's underlines the fact that it can be difficult for investors to put their hard earned money into a stock that is already trading near its highs. But as they say, the trend is up unless proven otherwise, and we might take this into account when pic

Rising fuel costs have grabbed the headlines over the past few years, with consumers feeling the pinch at the gas pump and in heating their homes. <!--more--> Much of the attention has focused on crude oil and natural gas, keeping coal buried deep in the news coverage.

Yet coal prices are rising, too, mostly on increased demand from Europe and Asia, and production shortages overseas. That’s good news for U.S. coal producers of all sizes, including James River Coal Co. (Nasdaq: JRCC ). The stock closed Monday at $26, then following a release Tuesday morning that showed a
