10 Best Rising Stocks To Buy Right Now

Alamy Campbell Soup (CPB) reported a loss in its fiscal fourth quarter Thursday, driven down in part by a slowing in U.S. soup sales, despite efforts to attract weight- and health-conscious consumers with a steadily increasing slate of healthier offerings. For eight quarters, the formula had been working, but the bottom clearly fell out in the three months ending July 28, with growth in soup sales easing to 4 percent, down from 14 percent in the last quarter. The slowdown may be weather related -- demand for soup falls in the summer, after all. But consumers may also be worried that Campbell's Soup perhaps isn't good food. A big part of Campbell's rising success has been their Healthy Request line, a collection of soups that promise to be much healthier than the usual offerings -- and which have the American Heart Association's heart-check mark to back up the claim. When it came to developing healthier soups, fat was obviously an issue, but sodium was the real bugaboo. Salt, after all, is the dark side of the broth: a highly effective flavor enhancer, it also happens to be far cheaper than vinegar, spices, and other premium ingredients. The trouble is, for health-minded consumers, especially Baby Boomers, salt doesn't just boost flavor -- it also drives up blood pressure. To sell its offerings as heart healthy, Campbell needed to cut the sodium. In its Healthy Request line, Campbell managed to get sodium down to 410 mg per serving, less than half the level of its standard offerings. For customers in search of a health-conscious food at a low price, the new soups seemed almost perfect. The trouble is, while 410 mg per serving makes the Healthy Request line a healthier alternative to regular soups, it hardly qualifies the soups as healthy. On a salt-to-calories basis, they are still pretty seriously out of balance.

  3. U.S. equities record another good year despite enduring a 10% correction – Another 10% correction call, followed by a bull market resumption…. Doll expects that market gains will depend more on earnings growth rather than further multiple expansion. He also would use pullbacks as buying opportunities as most fundamentals continue to improve.

  ETF Recommendation: SPDR S&P 500 (NYSEArca: SPY) for broad market, or iShares S&P 500 Growth (NYSEArca: IVW) for a growth focus.

  4. Cyclical stocks outperform defensive stocks – This puts consumer discretionary, energy, financials, industrials, technology and materials all doing better than consumer staples, healthcare, telecom, and utilities. Doll also prefers a free cash flow yield to dividend yield and dividend growth over dividend yield.

Gevo, Inc., incorporated in June 2005, is a renewable chemicals and advanced biofuels company. The Company is focused on the development and commercialization of alternatives to petroleum-based products. The Company operates in two segments: Gevo, Inc. Segment and Gevo Development/Agri-Energy Segment. Gevo, Inc. Segment is responsible for all research and development activities related to the future production of isobutanol, maintaining and protecting its intellectual property portfolio, developing future markets for its isobutanol and providing corporate oversight services. Its Gevo Development/Agri-Energy Segment is responsible for the production of ethanol and related products. In September 2010, the Company acquired a 22 MGPY ethanol production facility in Luverne, Minnesota that the Company intends to retrofit to produce isobutanol.

The Company�� isobutanol can also be converted by its customers into a range of hydrocarbons, which form the basis for the production of many products, including plastics, fibers, rubber and other polymers and hydrocarbon fuels, including jet and diesel fuel. Its technology platform consists of biocatalysts and a isobutanol separation unit. Together these technologies form the Gevo Integrated Fermentation Technology (GIFT).

The Company�� biocatalysts are microorganisms that have been designed to metabolize sugars to produce isobutanol.

GIFT consists of two components, biocatalysts which convert sugars derived from multiple renewable feedstocks into isobutanol through fermentation, and a separation unit which is designed to continuously separate isobutanol from water during the fermentation process. The Company developed its technology platform to be compatible with the existing approximately 20 BGPY of global operating ethanol production capacity, as estimated by the R! enewable Fuels Association (RFA).

  It was already hanging by a thread, and then only because it bounced back from an early-November plunge. But, with the action we've seen from Gevo, Inc. (NASDAQ:GEVO) since that now-failed recovery effort, it's pretty safe to say GEVO is beyond help/hope, if it falls under one more big line in the sand.... and it's looking like it's only a matter of time before that happens.

  The so-called fundamentals, frankly, don't really matter for Entest BioMedical Inc. (OTCMKTS:ENTB) or Gevo, Inc. (NASDAQ:GEVO). Oh, both GEVO and ENTB are generating sales, but both are consistently taking losses. That's ok though, as for both companies right now, profits aren't really the point - it's the pipeline that matters.

• [By Maxx Chatsko]

  The real news came this morning, when�Gevo (NASDAQ: GEVO  ) �announced that it had resumed commercial production of isobutanol at its Luverne biorefinery. The company had outlined its plans in prior conference calls, and its guidance earlier this year. But, given contamination obstacles at Luverne last summer, I suppose investors have reserved the right to remain cautious. Now that commercial production of isobutanol is finally happening, what exactly does this mean for investors?
