I'm getting to the party late, but this bad boy has finally cooked enough on my watch list. I've finally bitten on. Excellent company with great contracts that will assure revenue in the coming years.

Theory: Electric cars will increase demand for electric power. Aren't power stations powered by coal?

(closed on 06/13/08)
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 ...

Target $9-16, stop $6.25. Above the 50-day. New green bar. Coal - contrarian play on another unloved sector. Up 40%+ since posting an earnings miss and getting downgraded.

Bookkkeeping: Morning Purchases

|

I think it is becoming more clear to the market, and hopefully blog readers, that what we've been pounding the table on for over a year plus is coming to fruition. The recession is here (and HAS been here for those who don't live in the upper 10% or in a subset of states with heavy natural resource exposure) and the government reports, despite all their best attempts, are reflecting a portion of that (finally). We continue to flutter between "hope" and "denial", and that is the only thing that makes this tricky - the ultimate destination is clear (to me). But guessing what side of the be...

I am watching Arch Coal (ACI) drop 25% in 2 sessions; you know what hedge fund owns Arch Coal don't you? A certain one going out of business... the sharks are now berating his positions.
Instead of starting a position in Arch Coal (we already own enough coal stocks) I can choose any of the ones we own which are also being puked up - I've chosen James River Coal (JRCC) which is down 22% in 2 sessions for a "flip and trade" - the only way to make money in these stocks anymore. That is, buy them when they are punished, and sell on the pop. So this is only a trade and nothing more.... this is...
