Investments which may benefit from a Rudd win

[numbercruncher]

And alot of people dont realise the likely consequences of inaction - John Howard certainly didnt, he hadnt even heard of climate change till about 6 months back!

But I imagine the changes are going to have to be massive, Im picking the renewable energy / enviromentally friendly market will become the next big bubble, bigger than dotcom!

I bought a new car last year, 6cyl petrol, good emission ratings etc, but ive alway had this niggling feeling i should of gone something greener, maybe i should flog it off before a mass exodus to greener cars

Take it easy, eat food, breathe oxygen and slap yourself on the bum when you get excited.

Stocks that might benefit from the change on government; don't forget geothermal energy stocks as geothermal is the only potential reliable non-nuclear, non fossil fuel alternative base load power source.
GDY,GHT, GRK,PTR, TEY. Origin also involved.

I think more speculative stocks are those involved in large scale electrical storage research. Viable large scale electrical storage would make all intermittent power sources such as wind , wave, solar into base load power sources. Sorry no codes, but one of the possibilities involves use of vanadium.

Without doubt Wasabi is doing exactly what will be required. Thankfully the U exposure is in the NT but the other alternative energy exposures will no doubt have a major impact on the WAS share price.

Wise not only makes good wines.

What about the ones that will slowly take heat from a Labor win , offshore Australian owned companies , you see further down the track , the expected wage rises , matched with the risng dollar in a tigher market , this will put pressure on the larger employer companies . Mining and construction , Coles , Woolworths , even the burger sellers will cop it . Heavily affecting these companies margins . Of course most won't evolve until a little later on down the track , so it will give those invested in companies , the advantage of selling out or holding back with their stock and going into an accumulation spree .
I'm personally waiting for Banks to drop further still , whne cheap swopping .... even if they fall a little after that , I would be happy to go against the Mantra and average down in entries if I have to .

I can't say for sure that it is the influence of the Rudd government but the only stocks I hold that are in green today are AAE, ABJ, ARW, ESI, and GRK. These are all ones I hold because I believe they will benefit from the new Government.

For sure any Union will prosper during this time.

I missed out on that one. I thought it had peaked last week. Can't win them all I suppose.

All the Geothermals combined have not offset 1 tonne of greenhouse gases
(i would think) and are 2 to 4 years away from generating any offsets.

Some alternative power company's (NOT GEOTHERMALS) have millions of tonnes of offsets,
these company's will benefit the most in the shorter term.

Quote link:
European emission allowances for the 2008-2012 second phase were selling for between
21 and 24 Euros per metric ton of CO2 as of July 2007.

Certified offsets may be purchased from commercial or non-profit organizations for
US$1–30 per tonne of CO2
