COMMENT

This is a cyclical type company so it goes up and down based on how the economy is doing globally. Right now is very positive for this company. Natural gas is so cheap but they can't benefit because they're not in the right areas. They are moving some of their plants. Besides natural gas, they can also make methanol from coal whose prices are also low.

HOLD

Low natural gas prices, which has been a benefit for them. Technically, they have broken through their upper range, which is really positive. If it pulled back down below the $30 range, you should look at reducing your position.

BUY ON WEAKNESS

Increasing demand for methanol in China and this company is continuing to export. Had some problems getting their Egyptian plant on line and now back to full production. Always raising dividends and buying back stocks. More upside to be had. Try to get below $30.

DON'T BUY

Good long-term history but he would not buy it here. Weak gas prices will not continue forever. But would be a buyer here.

BUY

Likes this company. Natural gas is a major input for the manufacture of methanol. Huge multinational company with plants around the world. As industrial demand for chemicals picks up, this company will be able to fill that demand.

TOP PICK

Likes companies that have low valuations, great history of rising dividends and potential for double digit earnings growth in the coming year. Great play on natural gas and oil. Methanol prices seem to track oil prices and requires natural gas for production. Would look for this company to be very active this year and possibly moving some of their assets from Chile to BC. A lot of demand out of Asia.

BUY

Biggest methanol producer globally. Advantage is that the major input for methanol is natural gas. Industrial demand for chemical products depends on the economy. Feels the US economy is going to be steady, slow growth and Europe is going to only have a mild recession so methanol prices should be pretty strong.

DON'T BUY

Highly dependent on the global economy. Plant in Chili is not fully utilized. It is not the time to be buying it. Pass on this name.

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Sept 2/10. Up 1.85%.) Biggest pure play of methanol. Low natural gas prices are very positive for this company. Just raised their dividend and will be buying back shares. Still likes and is still a buy.

COMMENT

Primary business is methanol, which is made from natural gas. His concern is that over the next 5 years, there will be conversions for power plants, cars but natural gas prices will stay low which is very positive for this company.

TOP PICK

If you believe natural gas is going to stay low for a long period of time, you want to be in this one because they produce methanol, which tracks oil, not gas. Input is cheap and output is pretty strong. Limited capacity coming on stream. More demand for fuel blending in China. Trading at 55% of the assets it owns.

PAST TOP PICK

(Top Pick Apr 20/10, Up 24.51%) Best way to invest based on low nat gas prices. Methanol is used as a fuel additive and China are considering 15-100% of gasoline. Just raised dividend 10%. Would not be surprised if someone takes a run at this company.

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick April 20/10. Up 27.15%.) Methanol. Looking globally for stranded natural gas. Differential between natural gas and oil is 20 so there is lots more upside.

PAST TOP PICK

(Top Pick Mar 1/10, Up 13.40%) He scaled back. He had an issue with their exposure in the middle east. It’s a good name to own, a good leverage to oil.

WAIT

They convert Natural Gas into Methanol. Had a problem with Chilean plant because there wasn’t enough Natural Gas. Waiting for a pullback for new clients. Share buybacks coming.
