... want some others sure ones to write about? Try NE (see info on contracts with PBR to supply deep water platforms) NXY (too much good to say) SID (a world of steel creation like no other) and can't forget amazing PBR... thats it for now. I have other lists, but the others, just not so sure of the others... but the above list are sure bets. Research them more carefully, don't be afraid of the nonsense rumours, you will be amazed at these choices, though I am sure you know something about them already. I have carefully researched all, and all will shoot up on the next quarter's announcements at latest oil (or steel in the case of SID) prices for april, May and June... I expect PBR to rise up to the analyst expected $90 per share by end of the next fantastic earnings announcement, just as the last 7 quarters.... it never will end for PBR... always a pullback by say 15% for a couple weeks them up say 40% from there... PBR is one to read and write about for sure.

Good article, but a far better buy today would be PBR during this brief rare, mini-pullback in PBR...Read the below carefully researched article from "The street.com on Petroleo Brasileiro:

" (PBR - Cramer's Take - Stockpickr) shareholders have earned a 172% return on their investment over the last 52 weeks.

"If last week's positive earnings announcement is any indication, this Brazilian oil company has a lot more going for it than just good-looking charts (though the charts look good, too.)

PetroBras Returns Continue to Beat Oil and Brazil Investment Benchmarks

PetroBras boasts nearly a $300 billion market capitalization (its market cap just passed that of Microsoft(MSFT - Cramer's Take - Stockpickr)).

In fact, it now claims to be the third-largest publicly traded company in the Americas, behind Exxon Mobil(XOM - Cramer's Take - Stockpickr) and General Electric(GE - Cramer's Take - Stockpickr).

With a presence like that, it's clearly a bellwether stock both for the Latin American region and in the oil sector.

PetroBras does a lot: It explores for and produces oil and natural gas. It sells surplus production in Brazil and foreign markets. PetroBras operates oil tankers, distribution pipelines, marine, river and lake terminals, thermal power plants, fertilizer plants and petrochemical units. It is also building new pipelines for ethanol distribution and recently set up a separate operation to manage all its ethanol activities.

Here are three reasons I like PetroBras.

1. The recent oil and gas announcements are real.

In the last six months, PetroBras has discovered three super-giant oil fields in Brazil's offshore Santos Basin. The company also confirmed in January a major natural gas and condensate deposit in the Jupiter area.

If estimates of 33 billion barrels in reserve from another field (Carioca-Sugar Loaf) prove correct, then this ranks as the third-largest oil field in the world after Saudi Arabia's Ghawar (66 billion barrels) and Kuwait's Greater Burgan (46 billion barrels). "

Rudy Martin the writer ot this is the former director of research for TheStreet.com Ratings. Earlier he worked 25 years in investment research and management positions with Fidelity Investments, Lincoln National, Dean Witter Reynolds and Transamerica Investments. He began his career as a securities investment analyst at Duff and Phelps where he published equity and fixed income securities investment recommendations. Martin holds a master's degree in finance from Kellogg Northwestern University and is also a Chartered Life Underwriter. "

It is expected that PBR will have a huge number for this coming quarter's earnings announcement very shortly. Never has there been such a huge expected net profit number from any oil company, and due to the April and May record price of crude. The graphs show the accumulation going into and through each earnings announcement to be far more impressive than any other large oil/gas company... One will have to take great risk with smaller similar companies... PBR will make you money next week/month, and expect $140 by next year this time for PBR... todays $68 is a brief temporary bargain... in a week or so PBR will be back to its all time high of $78... this is a rare opportunity... research it, look at the graphs... amazing for such a large well established company that is perhaps the microsoft of oil...

I may buy 20,000 more shares of PBR today or early tommorrow...

In the last six months, PetroBras has discovered three super-giant oil fields in Brazil's offshore Santos Basin. The company also confirmed in January a major natural gas and condensate deposit in the Jupiter area.

If estimates of 33 billion barrels in reserve from another field (Carioca-Sugar Loaf) prove correct, then this ranks as the third-largest oil field in the world after Saudi Arabia's Ghawar (66 billion barrels) and Kuwait's Greater Burgan (46 billion barrels). "

Rudy Martin the writer ot this is the former director of research for TheStreet.com Ratings. Earlier he worked 25 years in investment research and management positions with Fidelity Investments, Lincoln National, Dean Witter Reynolds and Transamerica Investments. He began his career as a securities investment analyst at Duff and Phelps where he published equity and fixed income securities investment recommendations. Martin holds a master's degree in finance from Kellogg Northwestern University and is also a Chartered Life Underwriter. "

It is expected that PBR will have a huge number for this coming quarter's earnings announcement very shortly. Never has there been such a huge expected net profit number from any oil company, and due to the April and May record price of crude. The graphs show the accumulation going into and through each earnings announcement to be far more impressive than any other large oil/gas company... One will have to take great risk with smaller similar companies... PBR will make you money next week/month, and expect $140 by next year this time for PBR... todays $68 is a brief temporary bargain... in a week or so PBR will be back to its all time high of $78... this is a rare opportunity... research it, look at the graphs... amazing for such a large well established company that is perhaps the microsoft of oil...

I may buy 20,000 more shares of PBR today or early tommorrow...

Good article, but a far better buy today would be PBR during this brief rare, mini-pullback in PBR...Read the below carefully researched article from "The street.com on Petroleo Brasileiro:

" (PBR - Cramer's Take - Stockpickr) shareholders have earned a 172% return on their investment over the last 52 weeks.

"If last week's positive earnings announcement is any indication, this Brazilian oil company has a lot more going for it than just good-looking charts (though the charts look good, too.)

PetroBras Returns Continue to Beat Oil and Brazil Investment Benchmarks

PetroBras boasts nearly a $300 billion market capitalization (its market cap just passed that of Microsoft(MSFT - Cramer's Take - Stockpickr)).

In fact, it now claims to be the third-largest publicly traded company in the Americas, behind Exxon Mobil(XOM - Cramer's Take - Stockpickr) and General Electric(GE - Cramer's Take - Stockpickr).

With a presence like that, it's clearly a bellwether stock both for the Latin American region and in the oil sector.

PetroBras does a lot: It explores for and produces oil and natural gas. It sells surplus production in Brazil and foreign markets. PetroBras operates oil tankers, distribution pipelines, marine, river and lake terminals, thermal power plants, fertilizer plants and petrochemical units. It is also building new pipelines for ethanol distribution and recently set up a separate operation to manage all its ethanol activities.

In fact, it now claims to be the third-largest publicly traded company in the Americas, behind Exxon Mobil(XOM - Cramer's Take - Stockpickr) and General Electric(GE - Cramer's Take - Stockpickr).

With a presence like that, it's clearly a bellwether stock both for the Latin American region and in the oil sector.

PetroBras does a lot: It explores for and produces oil and natural gas. It sells surplus production in Brazil and foreign markets. PetroBras operates oil tankers, distribution pipelines, marine, river and lake terminals, thermal power plants, fertilizer plants and petrochemical units. It is also building new pipelines for ethanol distribution and recently set up a separate operation to manage all its ethanol activities.

Here are three reasons I like PetroBras.

1. The recent oil and gas announcements are real.

In the last six months, PetroBras has discovered three super-giant oil fields in Brazil's offshore Santos Basin. The company also confirmed in January a major natural gas and condensate deposit in the Jupiter area.

If estimates of 33 billion barrels in reserve from another field (Carioca-Sugar Loaf) prove correct, then this ranks as the third-largest oil field in the world after Saudi Arabia's Ghawar (66 billion barrels) and Kuwait's Greater Burgan (46 billion barrels). "

Rudy Martin the writer ot this is the former director of research for TheStreet.com Ratings. Earlier he worked 25 years in investment research and management positions with Fidelity Investments, Lincoln National, Dean Witter Reynolds and Transamerica Investments. He began his career as a securities investment analyst at Duff and Phelps where he published equity and fixed income securities investment recommendations. Martin holds a master's degree in finance from Kellogg Northwestern University and is also a Chartered Life Underwriter. "

It is expected that PBR will have a huge number for this coming quarter's earnings announcement very shortly. Never has there been such a huge expected net profit number from any oil company, and due to the April and May record price of crude. The graphs show the accumulation going into and through each earnings announcement to be far more inpressive than STO... One will have to wait to long to make money with STO. PBR will make you money next week/month, and expect $140 by next year this time for PBR... todays $70 is a brief temporary bargain... in a week or so PBR will be back to its all time high of $78... this is a rare opportunity... research it, look at the graphs... amazing for such a large well established company that is perhaps the microsoft of oil...

I may buy 20,000 more shares of PBR today or early tommorrow...

"If last week's positive earnings announcement is any indication, this Brazilian oil company has a lot more going for it than just good-looking charts (though the charts look good, too.)

"The Brazilian energy giant is now the second-largest company in the Americas. Deep-water drilling and sugarcane-based fuel have helped put it there

by Christopher Palmeri:

linkedin connections Step aside, Bill Gates and Jeffrey Immelt, make way for…Petrobras? With oil trading for more than $129 a barrel, Brazilian energy giant Petrobras (PBR) has passed Microsoft (MSFT) and General Electric (GE) in recent weeks to become the second-largest company in the Americas by stock market value. The Rio de Janeiro company's $310 billion market capitalization places it behind only ExxonMobil (XOM), at $488 billion.

Petrobras is riding high on a string of big oil discoveries in the deep water off Brazil's coast, leading to a 50% increase in the company's stock price in the past seven months. But at a May 15 speaking appearance at Los Angeles Town Hall, Alberto Guimaraes, president of the company's Americas unit, argued that Petrobras' success is no fluke. Rather, the company's leading positions in deep-water drilling and the distribution of automotive fuel made from sugarcane are the result of decades of research and investment, he said, and reflect a corporate culture that emphasizes long-term planning.

"This is a sustainable company," Guimaraes said. "That doesn't just mean we take care of turtles in the ocean. If you're running a New York teachers' pension fund and you're looking for a company you can invest in for 30 years, this is what you should be looking for."

Increased Output
Guimaraes painted a grim long-term picture for the world's energy supply. By 2030, global energy consumption is expected to rise 50%. Yet large discoveries of new oil reserves are increasingly rare, totaling just over 50 billion barrels in the first half of this decade. That's down from more than 450 billion barrels in a similar span during the 1970s.

Despite hefty increases in investment, the largest energy companies haven't been able to increase their output. Oil and natural gas production at the world's nine largest international energy companies was down 1.7% last year, to 23.5 million barrels per day. Petrobras was an exception. Its output rose, to 2.3 million barrels per day.

Guimaraes promised there would be more to come. He said the company's output target is 3.5 million barrels per day by 2012, an average annual increase of more than 7%. To get there, Petrobras will be spending $112 billion over the next four years, including massive investments in deep-water oil field development. "These are numbers the company can commit to," Guimaraes said. "They are not speculation."

Bringing Technology to the U.S.
Petrobras is drilling heavily in the U.S. Gulf of Mexico, where deep-water wells can cost $120 million each. The company hopes to transfer some of the technology it developed in Brazil, including floating production vessels that can fill up oil tankers in mid-ocean without extensive pipelines to shore. "Brazil is a big laboratory and the solutions we have found we're bringing to the U.S.," Guimaraes said.

Those solutions include sugarcane-based ethanol. This fuel, which Brazil first began developing in the 1970s, is now a 5 billion-barrel-a-year business worldwide. Petrobras, with its network of gas stations in Brazil, is the leading distributor. Nearly half of Brazil's energy supplies now come from sugarcane, hydroelectric power, and other alternative sources. The majority of cars in the country can run on gasoline, ethanol, or a combination of both. "These are not Brazilian carmakers," Guimaraes noted. "This is Ford (F), General Motors (GM), and Toyota (TM)."

Undeterred by the criticism, Petrobras is experimenting with all kinds of other fuel sources that are not food-related, including biodiesel made from castor and palm oil. Brazil would like to export more of its sugarcane-based ethanol to the U.S., which mainly uses the corn-based kind produced by domestic farmers who are protected by tariffs placed on foreign ethanol. Guimaraes was quick to point out that no single source will solve the world's energy problems, however.

"Biofuel is not the solution," he said. "It is one of the solutions."

PBR sells its refined product to the US thru various oil companies (competitors). Raw products to make the refined though becoming rarer, are a problem for every oil company and oil producing nation, not just PBR... as a sort of peak oil is occuring, PBR will obviously have a jump and will be there keeping oil cheaper in the US than it would be otherwise. The US hence will continue to buy US product from PBR no matter where the Crude product comes from. PBR wells are all over Latin America, not just Brail... If Oil reaches $200 per barrel, PBR will have a (split adjusted)share price of $1,400 per share, no doubt... and it won't be long. Each quarter they have blow out record net profit quarter after quarter every year... BPR is the Microsoft of the oil world in many respects, with so many partnering deals with US distributors of its refined products, and so many lease deals in the Americas everywhere. Certainly the stock will not stay at today's $71... It was only last year that everyone warned that $15 per share for PBR was a really high price, outrageous... just look at the funny articles last year and 2006 warning about PBR... just like Alan Von whatever's spooky nonsense article above... yours truly...
