As for the chance of a good 1st quarter, you might be right that it may not be the biggest blockbuster, however I really believe that this year will mean a comeback for Ethanol companies. I don't think Madera will open soon, but demand for Ethanol will increase, I expect the corn crop to be better then last year, but also less important due to the use of sorghum. The costs for producing Ethanol will be lower then last year. The Oil companies are losing ground and influence and they try to find ways to rescue their positions, however I think that the age of oil is slowly ending and the court will tell them also.
When looking at GERS, I relly believe that they are still a long way from a lawsuit against PEIX and looking at their PPS the last couple of weeks, the end is very near for them. Their PPS is really falling (this is no bashing but reality) they have done too many R/S so the road for that is also ending. It probably is going to be over in a couple of months, maybe even weeks for GERS IMO.
