Special Situation Stocks often put traders into solid profit opportunities.  

I believe that RVBF could be one of those...because the Company has most of the fundamentals that get investors very excited.  

It's what I call a "Story Stock" because it has a terrific story...in a sector that has lots of attention...with an opportunity that could generate many millions.  

So, let's start with what I believe are some of the top fundamentals that many investors are attracted to and how Raven Biofuels relates to each factor.                   

 

       Some of the Top Factors I Look for in a Stock...and How RVBF Relates to Them


 #1.  Proprietary Technology.
Some companies have unique, one-of-a-kind and patented, or patent pending product/service that are a dramatic improvement over the competition. That could be a catalyst for dramatic sales growth.  RVBF has a patented ethanol technology that could become one of the leading choices in the industry.  

#2. Solid Growth Potential.
A spike in sales could lead to a spike in share price. Clearly, if RVBF gets to the commercial production stage it's revenues are poised to skyrocket.  The Company has already developed relationships that could assist in bringing to market its ethanol fuel and furfural bi-product.  

#3. Stock is Trading at a Base. 
Often times a stock that is trading at lower levels...such as when it is under the upper 20-Day Bollinger Band and has an RSI under 65...it could be ripe for accumulation.  RVBF did come off a bit of a base on Friday and I believe has room to move.  It made an impressive 30% gain on Friday suggesting that it could be poised to take off.

#4.  The Lower the Stock Price --> The Bigger the Upside  Potential.
Based upon experience, I agree with the philosophy that says, “it’s easier for a stock to move from $0.10 to $1.00 compared to moving from $10 to $100.” Even though each scenario provides 1000% returns, the amount of dollar volume and investor awareness that would normally cause a stock to trade from $10 to $100 would be significantly higher. Low priced stocks can provide mega returns for traders!  RVBF is trading between 10 and 11 cents.  It could be ready to move.

#5.  Positive News Announcements. 
When a company is releasing news, it's an indication that they're on the move.  Take a look at the announcements that the Company has made over the past year...even going back to late 2008...and I think you'll be amazed at strategic partnerships, alignments and other business relationships RVBF has developed which could help generate many millions in revenue.  You should really check it out.

Keep watching RVBF as the stock has done a respectable job meeting most of these "surge factors" that could generate investment accumulation.

              RVBF Ethanol Technology Could be the Most Competitive in its Field!

 

                                

Last September an analyst report was issued that discussed the competitive advantage that RVBF has with how it develops Cellulosic Ethanol.  Below it stated the following: 

In the simplest terms, the technology utilized by RVBF results in faster reaction time than competing technologies, allowing RVBF to use lesser amounts of power and process materials, especially sulfuric acid.

The RVBF approach also utilizes continuous processing rather than batch processing . again creating an advantage in terms of processing speed and quantity of energy consumed.

To illustrate the magnitude of the differences among reaction times for competing technologies, RVBF estimates that a typical enzyme based ethanol production technology takes 7 days... a typical gasification technology takes perhaps 8 hours...and the RVBF two stage dilute acid process produces a reaction in 20 minutes.

That's a WHOPPING 12 times more efficient then the next best option!

                            The Benefits of Biofuels...What You Should Know

 

Without biofuels, gas prices could increase $0.20 to $0.35 per gallon.

Biofuels are reducing America.s dependence on oil

Biofuels are reducing greenhouse gas emissions

Today.s biofuels account for only a small percentage of the increase in global food prices

Future biofuels could alleviate much of the concern about the competition between food and fuel

                        
                      -------------------------------------------------------------------

The promise of cellulosic ethanol and the problems with corn based ethanol production has been noted by the officials from  the U.S. Department of Energy and officers of Fortune 500 Companies:

Secretary of Energy Samuel Bodman:  "Although the situation is complex, the bottom line is that we need more energy from all sources. We must use fossil energy, which will continue to dominate world energy supplies for the next several decades at least. We must increase our use of currently available renewable energy technologies like solar and wind power and develop new ones like cellulosic ethanol, which could offer a more cost competitive alternative transportation fuel than ethanol currently produced from corn..."

Deputy Energy Secretary Clay Sell: "I’m not going to predict what the price of corn is going to do, but I will tell you the future of biofuels is not based on corn"

Andy Karsner - Assistant Energy Secretary for Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy: ."You mentioned a concern over the cost of food. Until now, most ethanol has been produced from corn. But President Bush.s Biofuels Initiative provides leadership and funding for developing what we call cellulosic ethanol - ethanol produced from non-edible portions of food and agricultural waste. The President.s Biofuels Initiative aims to make cellulosic ethanol cost competitive with gasoline by 2012 . and this isn.t just pie in the sky; we.re funding major projects that will help get us there."

Beth Lowery, GM.s Vice President of Environment, Energy and Safety Policy: "We continue to believe that biofuels, specifically E85, is the most significant thing we can do in the near-term to offset future energy demands..We are on target to make 50 percent of our vehicles flex-fuel capable by 2012 providing the infrastructure is in place...

We believe ethanol used as fuel, not just as a gasoline additive, is the best near-term alternative to surging global demand for oil because ethanol is renewable and it reduces CO2 emissions compared to gasoline."

The analyst report noted that in the BioFuels Journal, GM stated that it would offer 18 flexible fuel vehicles (FFV) in the model year 2009, including a range of models in the Chevrolet, GMC, Cadillac, Hummer and Buick lines. GM vehicles represent approximately 3 million of the 7 million FFV in the U.S.  The article also estimates that there are 1,600 E85 stations in the U.S., representing progress in the development of the requisite ethanol infrastructure.

                  
                                        -------------------------------------------------

Clearly, RVBF should be on everyone's radar.

The symbol showed that it could pop upwards very quickly as it surged as high as 50% on Friday.

Since it is trading under the top 20-day bollinger band combined with the fact that it has an RSI under 65, this could be an excellent entry point.

Watch RVBF trade!
