Capstone Turbine Is Still a Stock to Watch

Capstone Turbine (CPST) announced a new distributor on Tuesday when the company named PFI Energy & Ecology as their distributor for Argentina.

Capstone, the maker of low-emission and 'clean' microturbine energy systems, is growing in presence around the world as investors wait for the potential to grow the bottom line of the company.

I still like this stock as a 'green' play for the portfolio - especially when the stock trades down towards a dollar - but I have some scepticism about the chances of this company becoming cash flow break-even any time soon. There's no doubt, however, that the business is growing and the potential for big things down the road is there. I've discussed some of that potential in previous posts.

I've still got a long term outlook with this one and it's a stock to watch as the country - and the world - goes green.

Disclosure: VFC is long CPST.

Daily announcements on new distributors is nice.
Daily announcements on new shipments would be even nicer.

CPST has a neat niche, and a growing sales base. Folks who aren't in a rush will be rewarded for holding this stock.

Let's think about this. CPST is going to need a lot more capital to succeed. If CPST was that good, then why haven't the big boys acquired it?

The stock and the company is a loser! Investing in it is like throwing money down a rat hole.

This one is worth the wait.
There's no "Quickie" in most business.
With the Green trend now moving forward,
this one has the potential to succeed.
Heard that China maybe interested in their products.
That maybe a big customer.
