MEMC Electronic Materials Inc. (WFR), engaged in the development, manufacture and sale of silicon wafers for the semiconductor industry worldwide, in which Director James Williams purchased 60,000 shares for $0.39 million; on February 26, 2012

http://seekingalpha.com/article/392181-analyzing-noteworthy-insider-buys-and-sells-on-friday

INSIDERS -- MEMC Electronic Materials Inc. (WFR): Engages in the development, manufacture and sale of silicon wafers for the semiconductor industry worldwide. Over the last six months, insiders were net buyers of 355,195 shares , which represent about 0.16% of the company's 218.12M share float

http://seekingalpha.com/article/410121-7-semiconductor-stocks-insiders-are-buying




MEMC Electronic Materials, Inc. (WFR) has a joint-venture agreement with China-based JA Solar (JASO) and it manufactures silicon wafers for use in computers, solar, and other goods in the United States. This company has seen a sharp decline in profits due to the weakness in semiconductors and the solar industry. It recently announced a significant impairment and restructuring charge which resulted in a loss of $6.44 per share.

http://seekingalpha.com/article/392231-a-solar-stock-investment-plan-for-2012



Without these charges, the loss would have been a more reasonable figure at about 36 cents per share for the fourth quarter. This stock was once a high-flyer, trading for over $90 per share in December 2007, when the market viewed the business more favorably. The vast difference in the stock price, highlights the cyclical nature of both the semiconductor and solar industry. With a restructuring plan in place and about $586 million in cash on the balance sheet, this stock has substantial rebound potential for long-term investors.

Here are some key points for WFR:

Dollar recovers, Treasury down after data

NEW YORK (MarketWatch) -- The dollar pared a loss against the euro and Treasury prices remained down slightly on Thursday after a report said U.S. jobless claims fell in the latest week to 358,000. The dollar index DXY -0.22% , which measures the greenback against a basket of six currencies, rose to 78.638, from 78.499 before the data and 78.589 in late North American trading on Wednesday. The euro EURUSD +0.12% traded at $1.3268, erasing a brief gain compared to $1.3264. Yields on 10-year notes 10_YEAR +3.28% stayed up 1 basis point to 2.04%. The euro jumped after a media report that Greek politicians would announce an austerity deal shortly. European Central Bank President Mario Draghi also begins his press conference around the same time, and is being looked to for clues about future lending operations and contributing to reducing Greece's debt load.

EGTK - Advantages of Adsorbed Natural Gas Technology:

http://www.energtek.com/t/1048-advantages

[Suppressed Image]

Adsorbed Natural Gas presents storage or cost advantages in both low-pressure and high-pressure applications.

Low Pressure ANG

Low-pressure ANG tanks (35-65 bars), providing cost-performance characteristics similar to CNG, cut refueling infrastructures capital and operation costs significantly.

• ANG station capital cost is significantly lower than that of CNG. An ANG compressor can cost one fifth the price of a CNG compressor.
• Due to the much lower compression level, ANG refueling consumes one-third to one-half less energy than CNG refuelling.
• Taking into account the lower cost of equipment, its relatively simplicity and lower physical amortization - station maintenance expenses will be correspondingly lower
• Total ANG fuel cost at pump will be lower than CNG, thus making NGV more attractive for both potential user and gas companies

High Pressure ANG

Extended Driving Range

Angstore high-pressure ANG tanks currently allow up-to 50% increase of NGV driving range in comparison with CNG tanks of the same volume.
In particular, Increase in the fuel capacity of NGV tanks is crucial for the introduction of NG fueling for most heavy trucks and passenger or cargo vehicles in intercity operation, as well as for high-performance cars and vans.

Reduced tank volume

High-pressure ANG technology can reduce the tank volume for a given driving range. This simplifies the introduction of NG fueling for small vehicles with limited free space. Reduction of on-board tanks volume is especially important for:

• Mini and Micro Cars
• Taxis in need of luggage storage while using CNG cylinder tanks

6 themes that will shape global markets in 2012
Commentary: Europe’s woes, U.S. resilience and black swans


NEW YORK (MarketWatch) — 2012 is off to a pretty good start as investors and traders look to the bright side after a volatile 2011.

Last year the vast majority of world markets closed in the red, some deeply so. One exception: the U.S., which broke even or gained slightly, depending on whether you owned stocks that paid dividends.

In Part I of the documentary, "Europe at the Brink," Wall Street Journal editors and reporters discuss structural flaws in the design of the EU's economic union, the "original sin" that helped set the stage for the debt crisis of 2011.

And it’s not hard to see why. The effects of the worst financial crisis since the Great Depression linger. The debt bomb that first exploded in the U.S. had knock-on effects around the world as governments took on liabilities originally assumed by households and banks. And now governments must clean up the mess.

That very involvement by politicians whose incentives are often antithetical to those of investors makes it particularly difficult to make predictions about markets this year, when U.S. elections bring everything to a halt.

Then there are “black swan” events, like last year’s Japanese earthquake, tsunami and nuclear meltdown, which nobody can predict but can affect our portfolios profoundly.

OK, enough excuses. Making predictions is part of my job — and honestly it’s a lot of fun — so here are the trends I think will drive markets most in 2012:

Read Howard Gold’s report card on last year’s predictions at MoneyShow.com.
1. Europe’s troubles drag on

The European debt crisis will drag on, but there may be some progress. Greece is pretty hopeless and there are fresh rumors that it will leave the euro zone. And the Spanish government just said that its deficit as a percentage of GDP will exceed its targets. Oops.

Meanwhile, euro-zone nations must issue nearly 800 billion euros in debt this year, 300 billion euros from Italy and Spain alone. A lot of that will come early on, so we could have some bumpy days ahead.

But yields have come down as a new government in Italy tries to push through reforms. And don’t underestimate the willingness of the European Central Bank under Mario Draghi to take a page from Ben Bernanke’s play book and flood the zone with cash if things get rough.

Also, though the naysayers may disagree, I think European governments are making slow, painful progress towards a solution — namely, more fiscal integration. I expect that to continue this year, too.
2. Ratings in danger

Still, several European countries will go into recession and some could lose their AAA rating this year. Hey, no one said it was going to be easy! Recession may already have started in Italy, and who cares what you call it in Spain, where unemployment approaches 23%. But austerity programs also could push countries like France and Belgium, but probably not Germany, into a mild recession.

Unfortunately, the lower tax revenues that come with recessions cause deficits to grow, which makes ratings downgrades likely. France’s AAA is a goner, but probably after the April presidential election. (Who wants to face the wrath of Sarkozy?) Even Germany and the Netherlands could be downgraded if they take on more of the debt of their southern cousins.

So, before the year is out, the AA+ club (which includes the U.S.) may be very crowded.

Was it Groucho Marx or Woody Allen who said they didn’t want to be a member of any club that would accept them? Now we know what they meant!

Read Howard Gold’s Six Big Political Predictions for 2012 in The Independent Agenda.
3. The U.S. sets the pace

The U.S. will avoid recession for much of the year and growth will be decent. This may be a bitter pill for many to swallow, but the U.S. economy has been remarkably resilient over the last year or so. I know, I know, the housing market is still comatose and real unemployment is much higher than the statistics tell us, so there’s plenty of misery out there.

But let’s give capitalism some credit: U.S. business people have proven adept at competing in the “new normal.” Recent manufacturing and consumer-spending data have been strong. U.S. exporters have done well in emerging markets and U.S. banks took advantage of free money in 2009 and 2010 to raise tons of capital, unlike their European counterparts.

So, I’m looking for decent growth in 2012 — no great shakes, maybe 2% or so — and continued slow improvement in private-sector employment throughout the year. Depending on the outcome of the election, the last couple of months may be rocky, however.
4. Stocks have an advantage

U.S. stocks should have a decent year, too, though the cyclical bull market is near its end. By some measures, valuations are pretty good — about 13 times projected earnings for the Standard & Poor’s 500 index. But earnings growth should taper off to mid-single-digit percentage increases.

2012 is an election year, historically the second best of the four-year presidential election cycle. This time may be different for all kinds of reasons, but since October 3, when the S&P closed at 1,099.23, stocks have gained 16%. We have only another 7% or so to get back to the post-crash high of 1,370. So, it’s not as outlandish as it may sound.

Read Howard Gold’s column on why 2012 may be a good year for stocks on MoneyShow.com.

But defensive sectors set the pace last year and that should continue as growth slows. Unfortunately that’s typically a sign of a bull that’s long in the tooth.

And the first year of a president’s term is usually the worst for stocks. It may be even more so in 2013, when spending cuts and tax increases could hit all at once, but that’s for next year’s column.
5. Emerging markets lay a brick

Emerging markets continue to lose their luster. In case you haven’t noticed, many emerging markets are deep in bearish territory. The BRICs have been a disaster — China, Russia, and Brazil all fell more than 20% in dollar terms in 2011, and India plunged 37.8%, according to MSCI.

Trouble is, a slowing world economy is catching up with the former highfliers, most of which are still export-oriented. Also, unlike the U.S. and Europe, emerging economies have faced strong inflationary headwinds, and their central banks have struggled to balance growth and price stability.
6. Expect the unexpected

Black swans are lurking. Almost by definition, you can’t predict which black swan will appear and when. A market event like May 2010’s flash crash is bound to happen again, maybe this year, maybe next. And of course natural disasters are always with us, most of them unexpected too.

But I think a whopper of a geopolitical crisis may be the most likely black swan. One of the most vulnerable areas is the Korean peninsula, where the death of Kim Jong Il and the elevation of his callow son, Kim Jong Un, have caused jitters.

The other, of course, is Iran, which just warned the U.S. not to send an aircraft carrier back into the Strait of Hormuz, through which 20% of the world’s oil supply flows.

And then, there’s Russia. Will former President Vladimir Putin just stand by as demonstrators tell him not to run for yet another term? Or will he use force to suppress them and re-assume power? And what would happen then?

That’s the thing about the future — there are usually more questions than answers, even as gurus and pundits pretend there aren’t. And politics and markets are more intertwined than ever, which should make 2012 even more unpredictable — and interesting.

Have a happy, healthy and prosperous new year!
