Water Stocks in the Americas
by Debra Fiakas, CFA
The post “Water: Invisible Crisis” introduced a new series on water supply in Latin America, describing the lack of access to quality water despite a bountiful supply of rainfall and snow melt. As the series has unfolded we have learned that water supply in Latin America is largely a local government undertaking. Investment opportunities are limited to water management companies that sign on to operate government-owned infrastructure or water treatment solution providers.
Water supply to the north has inched further into the commercial realm. A discussion of water investment would not be completed without a look at private water suppliers in the...

List of Synthetic Fuel and Drop-in Biofuel Stocks
Synthetic fuel stocks are publicly traded companies creating transportation fuel from non-liquid feedstocks such as natural gas, coal, and municipal waste. Drop-in biofuel stocks are publicly traded companies creating transportation fuel from organic feedstock that can be used, transported, and stored by conventional petrofuel infrastructure. A synthetic fuel is a biofuel if it is made from organic feedstock. It is a drop-in fuel if it is compatible with the existing infrastructure for petroleum based fuels.

Producing Graphene Materials
Build up of the graphene materials industry has progressed a bit more slowly than originally expected a decade ago as scientists and engineers peered through their electron microscopes at single atoms of carbon and counted their many attributes. At the time the potential to improve performance in end products like metal alloys and electronics seemed limitless. Unfortunately, reality has not imitated early dreams. Those companies that have brought graphene to the commercial market will attest to the challenges of jumping off the laboratory bench and into a factory.
Even more frustrating is the sourcing of graphene to use in research, product development and...

List of Green Investment Advisors
If you want your money to help with the transition to the clean energy economy, most investment advisors will probably try to accommodate by finding a few green mutual funds for you.
There are now hundreds of mutual funds and ETFs that brand themselves as green, but many will not meet your definition of what is "green." This could mean not being completely divested from fossil fuels, investing in nuclear power, or owning too much of non-fossil fuel stocks like Apple (AAPL) and Facebook (FB) and not enough green-focused companies like Tesla (TSLA).
An investment advisor who does not consider values...
Graphite Developers Eye Large Growing Market
The post “Integrated Graphene Producers” featured several graphene producers with novel business models that marry captive graphite sources to the technology and knowhow to produce graphene. These are not the only graphite producers. Although not as elegant as graphene with its svelte single-atom profile, the market for graphite has its appeal as well. Graphite has been a staple in steel industry crucibles, foundry molds and automobile brake linings. These days graphite has moved into another even more important place in cars - lithium ion batteries that make electric vehicles viable as replacements for gas guzzling cars and trucks.
Spherical graphite is especially desirable because the graphite anodes hold...
