Stockchase Opinions

Michael Smedley WFI Industries WFI-T HOLD Mar 23, 2007

Geothermal heating for homes. There is a high installation cost but is virtually cost free to run. Revenues have been rising significantly, but got hit by a US housing scare. Probably a takeout candidate.

Geothermal play. Was very attractive when gas prices were $12-$13. The shine came off when gas prices dropped. Thinks gas will go significantly higher so geothermal is the way to go. Very attractive dividend.
