Ethanol Stock
What about ethanol's impact on fuel economy? Critics of ethanol often allege that because ethanol contains fewer British Thermal Units (BTUs) of energy, ethanol-blended fuel has a negative impact on gas mileage. In reality, variables such as speed, stop-and-go driving, tire pressure, and the weather's effect on driving conditions have a much greater impact on fuel economy than what fuel you use in your engine.

RealMoney Radio: Wait for the Signal
Recently Jim Cramer had dinner with a hedge fun manager who was trying to get Cramer to become positive on ethanol stocks, Cramer said on his "RealMoney" radio show Monday. The manager, whom Cramer referred to as "Mr. Ethanol," told Cramer about all the ethanol IPOs in the pipe. "This guy knew the market inside and out," Cramer said. But when the manager asked Cramer what he thought, Cramer said that though, he didn't "know jack about ethanol," he knew the life cycle of IPOs. "I know that they start out strong but that the pipe will soon be jammed with primary and secondary offerings," Cramer said. "I also said the move would be short-lived and that he should sell every share he had." Now, there's another IPO coming for Hawkeye Holdings, and Cramer doesn't want people anywhere near it, he said.

Ethanol Demand Sparks Higher Corn Prices
NEW YORK (AP) - Since gaining favor as an alternative fuel, demand for corn-derived ethanol has made the kerneled crop a hot commodity. While weather and supply still largely dictate the price of corn in the commodities market, rising demand for ethanol has been nudging corn prices higher. Corn futures are up 17 percent from a year ago. Of the total corn crop, corn for ethanol production is projected to reach 2.2 billion bushels in the year ending August 2007 - about a third of the size of the livestock feed market, which is projected at 6 billion bushels. Another 2.2 billion bushels are slated for general export. While not the largest end market for corn, ethanol has been gleaning some market-moving. "Ethanol has been under the radar for a long time - now it's not," said Steve Bruce, a corn and wheat broker with Man Financial.
