Government's Biofuel Timetable Could Spell +15,900% Growth
+15,900% growth might seem far-fetched... but it's not. In fact, it
is mandated by law. And I've identified the ONLY stock positioned to
capture this growth.
The
Silver Lining to a Falling Dollar
Despite the U.S. national debt, there is a silver lining for income
investors. This massive spending, combined with movement out of U.S.
Treasuries, is going to take its toll on the dollar, and
international income investors could reap the rewards in the form of
higher dividends. |

Cheap
Condos Aren't the Best Deal in Vegas -- MGM Is
The economy doesn't look good. Housing looks even worse. So why should you be
venturing into the Nevada desert for an investment opportunity?
How to Profit from a Game of Chicken
Chinese officials are reportedly instituting a blockade of U.S. chicken exports
in response to U.S. trade policies involving Chinese chicken and new tariffs on
Chinese tires. The move could cost U.S. chicken producers hundreds of millions
of dollars. One firm in particular could see its shares hard-hit by panic
selling -- which would offer investors a chance to profit handsomely from this
trade riff.

How
California Could Ruin the Recovery
A crisis is
underway in Sacramento. The state of California has a $24 billion
budget gap. With no solution on the horizon, lawmakers have just
five trading days to resolve the issue.
If the state can't meet its debt obligations in time, it faces the
prospect of a possible multi-notch downgrade.
Add this to the fact that California has the worst credit rating in
the country, and you have the makings for a possible full-blown
meltdown.
The 10
Banks That Made It -- And the Next Ones to Follow Suit
You've heard the news: The federal government has cleared the way for 10 of the
nation's largest banks to begin repaying some $68.3 billion in bailout funds. In
today's special edition of Investor Update, I'll reveal which banks this news is
a buy signal for -- and which ones investors should look beyond. The answer may
surprise you...
Federal Law Mandates +15,900% Growth for a Biofuel only a Handful of Firms Can
Produce
There's one piece of legislation George W. Bush signed into law that President
Obama likes. Included in its provisions: An aggressive federal timetable for the
use of cellulosic ethanol. The law calls for 16 billion gallons of this biofuel
to be produced by 2022. We're not producing any of it right now. Only a few
companies even know how. And as these federal mandates take effect, the handful
of companies that control this technology are going to watch as demand grows
+15,900% and their revenue follows suit.
The Unknown
Trillion-Dollar Coal Technology
Coal. If you think coal is dirty and does nothing
but emit greenhouse gases and wreak environmental havoc, you're wrong. You've
bought the hype. The fact is that, used properly, coal can be used to generate
power with ZERO emissions. And the trick behind this technology is so simple, so
elegant that you'll be amazed that no one's thought of it until now.

These
Shares Will Absolutely Go Into Orbit After They Launch on May 14th
We've all watched the movies where intelligence agents in some high-tech room
use satellites to get the pictures they need to save the world. Alas, that's not
really the way it is. In the United States, in fact, the key provider of
satellite images used by intelligence agencies isn't even the military. It's a
pair of high-tech suppliers who operate their own spy satellites. One of them is
about to go public. Investors who snap up these shares are going to make a
killing, all courtesy of Uncle Sam.

These
Two Drug Makers Are Benefiting as Governments Stockpile Flu Medication
The U.S. government has mounted an admirably quick
response to the swine-flu outbreak and will continue to work with state medical
officials and international health agencies to respond to the crisis. So far,
two drugs have proven capable of fighting the potentially deadly influenza
strain now known as H1-N1. As the world begins to respond to a potential
pandemic, governments will stockpile and use millions of doses of these
important medicines. That's good news for the people who will be treated.

A Safe, 14.4% Yield Backed by Uncle Sam
Is Now for the Taking
Seven U.S.
companies have "AAA" credit ratings, the highest available
from Standard & Poor's. Among these titans of industry are
such names as Johnson & Johnson, Microsoft and Berkshire
Hathaway. But one --
and only one -- entity is even more highly rated.....Your Uncle
Sam.
Buffett
Tells Shareholders His Thoughts On the Market, Explains Berkshire's
Latest Moves
Warren Buffett, the most successful investor and richest man in the
world, has sent his annual letter to Berkshire Hathaway shareholders. The letter, revered for its folksy wisdom and
plainspoken discourse on complex financial topics, reviews the
year's performance at one of the world's most watched companies. Buffett's verdict: It was a bad year -- the worst for
Berkshire in history -- but
America's brightest days lie ahead.

Microsoft's Next Move Could Earn You +1,900%
Microsoft announced Friday that it would begin to open retail stores and had
hired a veteran Wal-Mart executive to run the initiative. Building a retail
footprint for the world's No. 1 software maker will take time and money.
Microsoft has one but not the other. It can't wait any longer to make up the
retail ground it has lost to Apple. I think that spells merger, and there's an
obvious takeover candidate.

How to Double Oil's Gain as Crude
Rebounds to $100
2008 was the worst year stocks had seen
in more than 70 years, but it was the worst year ever for commodities. For
a lot of people, that's been good news for one reason: Prices at the pump are
half of what they were a year ago. But not everyone is happy with the
falloff in commodities -- especially crude -- and oil producers around the world
are slowing production in an attempt to bolster prices. A few big-money
traders are investing hundreds of millions of dollars in an unusual way to
take advantage of the anticipated run on oil. Here's a look at what's
going on and how you can get in on the action.

Experts Face Off: Is Alcoa a Good Buy Right Now?
As a special treat for our readers, we've asked two of our accomplished
investing experts, Andy Obermueller and Amy Calistri, to face off about Alcoa.
In light of the bellwether's quarterly earnings, Andy and Amy have conflicting views about where the stock is headed next.
Will 2009 Deliver 1975's +31% Gains?
Historical trends suggest
that investors are more likely to see a stellar year in 2009 rather
than another year of
bloodletting. As Investor Update welcomes the
new year, we'll show you what's happened in past Januaries and
discuss what factors could propel the market during the coming year.
Andy Obermueller is a writer and researcher for StreetAuthority. His
background is in financial journalism, and he has worked for some of the
nation's largest newspapers. At the business desk of The Star-Ledger, his market
acumen guided the financial news read by more than a million people each day.
Later, his close contacts with West Texas business leaders helped him break the
story on the plans for the first nuclear power plant to seek regulatory approval
in the United States in more than a quarter-century. Andy is known for
versatility: He's as comfortable scouring thousands of pages of SEC filings as
he is sitting down with CEOs for a one-on-one chat.
After watching business from the outside for ten years, Obermueller got an
inside look as a commercial lender with Wells Fargo's Business Banking Group,
where he worked prior to joining StreetAuthority. He's fond of premium cigars,
