Prudent Investing 101

Energy Storage Opportunities vs. Irrational Expectations

Americans won't buy turbo diesels.....they associate them with dirty, noisy cars from the late 70s/early 80s. That is why Ford won't produce their turbo deisel engines in Mexico....not enough demand....Ford has a small turbo diesel that should sell like gangbusters overseas but it won't see the U.S. anytime soon.....over 60 mph...closer to 80

Energy Storage Opportunities vs. Irrational Expectations

"U.S. battery industry is building new manufacturing plants to meet current demand"

So what are your thoughts on A123? Won't their IPO essentially create disparate valuations amongst battery companies and potentially INCREASE the valuation of the above companies?

I think they all float upwards with that IPO and then, over time, you'll figure out who the winners/losers truly are.

CBAK vs. ABAT. One losses $$$ and one generates profits. In the end I like companies that generate cash flow from operations and profits.

I understand the LI-ION concern re: power/weight but I think these stocks have some legs still left in them!
