Everyone loves the idea of alternative fuel, and companies are looking to invest in ethanol companies, which is a big boom to beleaguered farmers in the nation’s Midwest. Ethanol is generally made from corn, which is a common crop, which may now yield much higher returns. President Bush has made ethanol production a priority, and companies are finding no problem finding buyers for their stocks.

VeraSun gained 30% in their initial day of trading, which shows just how strong the interest currently is. The stock fell back a bit in subsequent days, but the company has outstanding prospects. They’re currently second behind ADM in ethanol production nationally.

All signs are go for this trend to continue into the near future:

• Oil prices continue to rise - prompting people and nations to look for alternatives
• Investors are wise to the idea and pumping money in
• The technology offers a greener solution that is good for everyone

If gas prices soar, ethanol becomes an even higher priority. Keep an eye on the leaders in the sector. All signs point up right now.
