Why Are Some of the Richest Men in the World Suddenly Investing $14.3 Billion in This Cutting-Edge Technology? Discover How You Could Earn $113,600 for Every $10,000 You Invest Between Now and March 15 - Riding the Biggest Government-Mandated Bull Market in History... Dear Smart Profits E-report Member, Vinod Khosla - Silicon Valley's famous multi-billionaire guru - has invested tens of millions of dollars, proclaiming this new industry part of 'a macroeconomic shift that will change the whole planet.' But he's not the only one jumping in with both feet. Bill Gates recently invested more than $79 million in this ground-floor technology. Sir Richard Branson, chairman of the Virgin Group, will have pumped a whopping $300 to $400 million into developing the product when all is said and done. 'I believe it's the future,' he says. And another small group of investors led by Stephan Dolezalek, managing director of VantagePoint Venture Partners, recently invested $181 million in this industry. Says Mr. Dolezalek: 'This is a sector that can be every bit as big as the Internet.' In all, investors have pumped more than $14.3 billion into this industry in the past year alone, according to Bloomberg. That's serious cash - from some very smart investors who've made billions from 'big trend' opportunities like this one. So What's Going On? Why the sudden interest in this once obscure little industry? For years, scientists and experts in this industry have been diligently working away to perfect its showcase product - a product that many experts now believe will free America of its dependence on foreign energy. Quietly they've been tinkering with the technology... finding ways to improve its efficiency... and lower its cost of production. Now it's ready - and this technology's 'coming out party' is just beginning... thanks to a brand new law recently passed by Congress. U.S. Government Says 'Use this Technology...Or Else' At the heart of it all is a bill that calls for a 90% increase in usage of this product over the next six years - along with generous tax incentives to companies involved in its production. Think about that for a moment... Imagine if the government passed a law that said we had to drink 90% more Coke over the next six years - then told Coca-Cola that not only are they exempt from taxes for a while, but they'll be getting government cash to help them cover the cost of producing more soda. It's a silly example, I know. Yet, that's essentially what the government's telling certain companies in this industry: We've just passed a law that will double the demand for your product - and not only will we not be taxing you on the profits for a while, but we'll give you money to help meet the demand. That's why this is such an outstanding opportunity... and why so much money has begun to flow in to it. Make no mistake about it. This is the kind of opportunity that could make you a millionaire many times over - like the early-in investors of so many 'big picture' trends throughout history have... The same way the railroads of the 1800's changed the way goods were brought to market - and made millions for investors and financiers who had the foresight to picture America linked from coast to coast... The same way the industrial revolution changed the speed at which we produced consumer goods in this country - and made captains of industry not only rich, but household names... The same way computers and the Internet changed the way we get and process information - and made early-in investors in the likes of Microsoft, Apple, Intel and dozens of other industry stalwarts, millionaires many times over. Only this time, you could be among those who get rich. 'This is a sector that can be every bit as big as the Internet.' ~ Stephan Dolezalek, JD of VantagePoint Venture Partners In fact, stay with me for the next few minutes and I'll show you how you could earn $113,600 for every $10,000 you invest - just by following the 'big money' to key areas of this booming new industry. But even those profits are nothing compared to what you can make from this opportunity over the long term. We're talking the kind of wealth where when people see you or point to your mansion they whisper, 'That's one of the new energy guys. That's ethanol money.' Here's the full story... Very Soon, South Dakota Will Rival Saudi Arabia As the Energy Capital of the World Let's face it. The U.S. - and indeed the world - is at an energy crossroads. We can't carry on consuming energy at the rate we do... and something has to be done. That 'something' is a switch from oil to the more environment-friendly fuel, ethanol. And in an unprecedented move, the U.S. government is backing the historic shift from oil to ethanol, both legislatively and financially... It's like they're giving ethanol producers a license to print money. And early-in investors will be laughing all the way to the bank. As a result, U.S. demand for the fuel is likely to increase at least 50% this year, according to The Wall Street Journal. Already, big players in the energy sector are scrambling to hoard as much ethanol as possible. And stocks of the companies that produce it have risen by up to 168.9% in the past ten months. Imagine pocketing a series of gains of 53.77%... 78.43%... 81.99%... 141.25%... even 168.9%... in only ten months. The profit potential for investors - like Gates, Khosla, Branson, and yes, even investors like you and me - is enormous. If you follow their lead, you could see an investment of $10,000 grow to $113,600 or more in the next few years... The Frenzied Rise of Oil... The reason so much money is flowing into these companies is because of one simple fact: the raging, out-of-control price of oil, which saw a 52-week high of $77.03 a barrel. Will oil continue to rise in the long term? It certainly appears that way. Consider for a moment: There is talk about the increasing risk of military confrontation with Iran, the world's fourth-biggest oil producer. American-hating terrorists would like nothing better than to blow up some of the oil wells that keep our country running. If that happens, 'all bets are off,' says oil analyst Jamal Qureshi of PFC Energy. The U.S. Government has revised its estimate of the damage to pipelines caused by Katrina and Rita. Originally, they thought the hurricanes damaged 183 pipelines, but now they say there are 457 pipelines and counting... 'We easily see five to seven years' worth of work just to get back to where we were pre-hurricane,' says Jim Mermis of Superior Offshore International. Unless you've been living under a rock, you know that demand is outstripping supply. The world is seeing rapid depletion of oil reserves, and a simultaneous upsurge in demand - largely spurred by China's rampant economic growth. We now consume four barrels of oil for every one barrel we find. Yet, none of the 'forces that contribute to current high crude oil prices will ease significantly in the near future, so our best forecast is that crude oil prices will remain elevated through 2007,' says the Energy Information Administration (EIA). Oil futures, the benchmarks for crude prices, indicate traders expect prices to remain higher than $70 a barrel through September 2010. Some experts even predict we'll see $100/barrel oil in the coming year, and as it edges higher, so will the demand for alternative fuels. And you can take advantage of this explosive opportunity IF you know which companies are set to profit most... and which strategy is best for playing them... Moonshine In Your Tank Congress and President Bush are in agreement - and have recently touted alternative fuels as a solution to America's 'addiction' to oil. And their first step away from dependence on international oil imports took place months ago. On May 5th, the government mandated that MTBE - a toxic additive to gasoline - be replaced by a renewable, safer, more environment-friendly additive: ethanol. This switch is expected to increase demand for ethanol by 2 billion gallons annually... Ethanol - a form of alcohol - is produced from corn and sugar, and is bio-renewable. It's our best bet for four reasons: It could free America from its dependence on foreign oil. Seventy percent of vehicles in Brazil drive on it, and it saves them $50 billion annually in oil import costs. In total, ethanol has successfully replaced imported oil worth an estimated $120 billion. This translates to a savings of about $2 trillion for an economy the size of the U.S. Switching from gasoline could slash our carbon dioxide emissions... some experts say by as much as 80%, all the while helping to save the planet. It could give American automakers a significant competitive edge. They're currently making hundreds of thousands of flex-fuel vehicles, whereas their Japanese counterparts don't sell flex-fuel vehicles in this country. It's great news for farmers and will create new jobs. As President Bush said: 'I believe in ethanol because it's good for the environment, it's good for the economy, it's good for farmers of this country, and it's imperative to energy security.' Today, investors can take advantage of this situation, if they know how to follow the money trail... 'The buzz about the corn-based 'biofuel' is crackling from Wall Street conference rooms to the 6a.m. coffee klatches at your average downstate Denny's,' says The Chicago Tribune. ~ 'Just as the events of 9/11 changed how we guard our cities and protect ourselves, a new generation of ethanol may soon change the way we gas up our cars and protect the earth,' reports Dateline NBC ~ President Bush is convinced that 'Ethanol will replace gasoline consumption. Last year, America used a record 4 billion gallons of ethanol. There are now 97 ethanol refineries in our country, and nine of those are expanding and 35 more are under construction. The ethanol industry is on the move, and America is better off for it.' In this report, you'll discover how simple it is to make double-, triple-, even quadruple-digit gains from the first ever bull market in ethanol. But, please be aware: The window of opportunity won't be open for long, so you need to act quickly... The recent Energy Policy Act mandates that the domestic use of ethanol and biodiesel has to increase to 7.5 billion gallons annually by the year 2012. The demand for ethanol is set to explode. Just Follow the Money... Take a look at the impact this new legislation is already having on our country: There are 180,000 gas stations in the U.S., but ethanol is only available at about 600 of them. Phillip Lampert, executive director of the National Ethanol Vehicle Coalition, told The Wall Street Journal that the number of ethanol-available gas stations could increase four-fold in 2006. There are at least 5 million flex-fuel vehicles on the road, which can run on E85 (85% ethanol, 15% gasoline), although most don't yet... because of the unavailability of ethanol. GM and Ford plan to produce 650,000 flex-fuel cars in 2006, largely to capitalize on a provision in the Energy Policy Act requiring federal agencies to increase the number of flex-fuel vehicles in their fleets. 'Ethanol is typically cheaper than regular gasoline and we're going to do all that we can to support it,' says Ford's President, Bill Ford. An ethanol-plant building boom is underway. There are 97 plants in the U.S., and 35 new plants under construction. The number of ethanol plants is expected to double in the next couple years. The newer plants are also boosting the amount of ethanol derived from each bushel of corn by 12% - rapidly improving efficiency of production. Goldman Sachs has just poured $30 million into a company that is building the world's first commercial-scale cellulosic plant - for making ethanol from straw. MetLife, America's largest life insurer, is investing an undisclosed sum in a planned ethanol mill on some of our country's most productive farmland. Industry titans are recognizing the value of providing the American public with an alternative fuel. Wal-Mart announced that it is considering offering corn-based ethanol at its 383 gas stations throughout the U.S. And Big Oil companies, including Shell and Exxon Mobil, are funding ethanol research. The president has proposed $150 million in next year's budget for research into advanced forms of ethanol - a 65% increase over current budgetary levels. This boost for cellulosic ethanol research is expected to make it cost-competitive by 2012, offering the potential to displace 30% of the nation's current fuel use. It's that big an opportunity. And in a moment, I'll tell you precisely how you could ride the ethanol boom for maximum gains... Uncle Sam makes ethanol even more worthwhile by offering a tax break amounting to $1.50 per bushel of corn. And, once fermentation is complete, even the leftover grain byproducts can be sold for livestock feed. Better yet, U.S. ethanol distillers are also shielded from foreign competition by the 54-cents-a-gallon tariff to discourage imports. Critics say that without the government tax-breaks ethanol isn't cost-effective. But with a savings of $2 trillion we're currently paying out for foreign oil, the government can afford to subsidize the industry until such time as cellulosic ethanol production is fine-tuned. (Cellulosic ethanol can be made from a variety of things that might otherwise by considered waste - sewage sludge, plant stalks, etc.) 'There are a lot of people who think the technology is there,' and could be competitive even if oil prices return to $30 a barrel, said Greg Bohannon, a managing partner at Greenrock Capital, a California-based private equity fund that focuses on renewable energy. 'Why would Goldman Sachs invest in a company that's not going to be commercially viable for 10 years?' Critics also argue that ethanol isn't sustainable on a mass level. However, the same argument could've been made about Brazil, which today is virtually energy independent because of ethanol. And, according to Vinod Khosla, the state of South Dakota alone could produce enough ethanol to be the third-largest energy exporter after Saudi Arabia and Iran! Even Alan Greenspan - Mr. Cautious - recently said that cellulosic ethanol is the only alternative energy source that could be produced in enough volume to make a dent in gas usage. 'You'll get an awful lot of investments [into this technology] coming in, especially if the numbers make sense, which I think they do,' he said. There are also 'experts' out there who say it takes more energy to produce ethanol than it generates. But the Department of Energy disagrees. For every unit of energy spent, 1.4 units of ethanol energy are created. And as production technology improves, the energy yield will increase dramatically. The point is this: There are always going to be naysayers, regardless of the industry. 'I think there is a world market for maybe five computers.' ~ remark attributed to IBM Chairman Thomas Watson, 1943 'There is no reason anyone would want a computer in their home.' ~ Ken Olson, founder of Digital Equipment Corp, 1977 'I don't think it's that significant.' ~ John Roach, president, Tandy Corp., of IBM's entry into the microcomputer field in 1981 In the same way, years from now, people will look back at today's critics of ethanol, incredulous at how badly they got it wrong... Once Laughed At, Ethanol Is Now Taking Center Stage Make no mistake. The provisions of the new energy bill mean that the demand for ethanol is set to explode. And we're here to take advantage, using a unique 'accelerated profit strategy' we've developed to cash in on stock moves like this one, time and again... A word of caution, though: You can't jump in headfirst, invest in anything and everything to do with ethanol, and expect to make money. No... profiting from this inevitable super-trend is not that simple. Not every company involved in this government-backed bull market is going to see stupendous gains. But after months of careful research and analysis, we've found three stocks that we believe could make millionaires of early-in investors. The first is a small-cap stock with the potential for explosive growth. If you want to ride the ethanol boom in the U.S. - aside from owning a patch of corn - then this tiny American company is the way to go. This is a direct play on ethanol - The company's sole focus is on producing and marketing renewable fuels. Awhile ago, a private investment firm owned by Bill Gates bought more than $79 million worth of 'Investors should look at [this fuel] as a multibillion-dollar market that can grow 30% for the next 10 years.' ~ Vinod Khosla, founder of Sun Microsystems stock in this small company, which has also just completed a debt financing deal worth $30+ million. And the company just signed a purchase agreement with a group of institutional investors with net proceeds of approximately $138 million. This influx of capital is expected to accelerate their expansion and increased production capacity to 420 million gallons per year by the end of 2010. That's a cash injection of $248 million - more than double the company's sales for 2005. Where's that money going? Straight into the company's construction of an ethanol production plant on the west coast. The plant is scheduled to begin operations soon. The money is also being used to pay for construction costs of other ethanol plants on the west coast, which by the end of 2008 are expected to have a combined capacity of at least 200 million gallons of ethanol. It's not surprising then, that shares recently surged 125.96% in only three months. As I mentioned earlier, the demand for ethanol is directly linked to the price of oil. Just look at this timeline of the company's past performance: 2002: The oil price was around $22/barrel. The company did $15 million in revenues 2004: Oil was at $37/barrel and the company's revenues soared by 500%. 2005: Oil was at $50/barrel and the company did about $123 million. 2006: Oil is just over $60/barrel. Revenue is set to skyrocket... But now, the stock price has slid back nearly 62% from its 52-week high. For those willing to listen, the sound of opportunity is knocking... Take a look at this: The stock is super-cheap, which boils down to a slam-dunk opportunity for you to pocket anywhere from 300% to 1,136% gains in the months and years ahead. As an investor, you want to be in this play right now... In the same way Morgan Stanley turned its $66 million investment in an ethanol company into a $750 million investment three years later, you could profit by getting in early on this opportunity. One day soon, investors will look back and realize (for many, too late!) that buying stock in this tiny company today was like getting into McDonald's before the explosion of the fast food industry. (If you invested $10,000 in 1970, you'd be sitting with a cool $1.8 million today.) Or like one private investor, Harry Alfond, who didn't own a single share of Berkshire Hathaway until 1993, but has since used his investment in that company to build an incredible family fortune worth more than $1.5 billion today. Or like Rockefeller, who turned $4,000 in oil investments into money that made him the richest man of his time. True, opportunities like Berkshire Hathaway, Standard Oil and McDonalds only come along once in a lifetime. But suppose you could make even one-tenth the gains early investors made on Buffett's company, Berkshire Hathaway? That's why I'm writing you today. I'd like to let you in on a rare opportunity to make maximum gains on one of the biggest stock stories of the year. In fact, it's not unrealistic to predict that this company could turn an investment of $10,000 into $113,600 in the next few years, as the world comes to depend on the fuel of the future. And that's not the end of the story... But before I tell you about two other lucrative plays on the ethanol bull market, allow me to introduce myself. Discover 14 Years of Trade Secrets Worth a Fortune... My name is Lee Lowell. I've been trading for the better part of two decades. For six years I worked 'in the trenches' as a market maker on the floor of the New York Mercantile Exchange (NYMEX) - home to the energy markets. My job made me one of the few individuals who help set the prices for energy products used around the world. I got to work shoulder-to-shoulder with other traders, pushing millions of dollars around for big institutions such as Merrill Lynch, Goldman Sachs and Citicorp. Forget theory or book smarts - I was thrown right into the trenches to earn my stripes. I admit, I made my fair share of mistakes at first, but you wise up pretty fast. I knew that if traders made too many mistakes, they'd be turned back out on the street. However, by the late 1990s, I was done slugging it out on the streets of NYC, spending the money on ridiculously high rents. In 1998, the Internet was just beginning to start its explosion. That meant I could set up a home computer and receive real-time quotes for any commodity that traded around the world. But rather than limit myself to just one commodity, I realized that with the power of the web, I could trade anything I wanted, at any time I wanted. Needing only a computer, an ISP and a cable outlet, I decided to pack up my family and move to Hawaii... where I opened my own business. We spent four glorious years living on the island of Kauai, where I woke up at 3 a.m. to start my trading day and was finished by 11a.m. - just in time to catch the best waves for surfing! My point is this... During my time on the NYMEX, I crafted and molded my best trading strategies - strategies that haven't changed over the years. They've just got better because of my extensive knowledge of chart analysis, which I gained from running my own business. These are the techniques I'd like to share with you today. When you apply these secrets to the explosive opportunity arising from the energy crisis, you'll soon see the impact they can have on your profits.

I'll tell you more about the Accelerated Profits Report and what it can do for your portfolio in a moment, but first I'd like to tell you about a second company... Way Cheaper Than Ordinary Energy Companies In Washington, there's a company with strong lobbyists waiting in the hallways, knowing that alternative fuels will be one of the hottest issues come election time. To date, the company has been an aggressive agricultural player, selling everything from cooking oil to seeds to ethanol. But there's a huge change underway... The company is fast transforming itself into an energy giant - to compete with the Big Oil companies. They've realized that in order to make inroads in Washington, they need to start playing the energy game. And who better to help them than their brand new CEO, a former executive of one of the largest integrated oil companies in the world? This company now has the product, the market, the technology and the leadership experience to ride the ethanol boom all the way to the bank... This is a long-term winner - a momentum stock that is destined to dominate the alternative energy industry. The share price, currently around $32, is trading at about 12 times the next 12 months' projected earnings. Its market cap is around two-thirds of its sales. From the sales-to-market-cap perspective, it is cheap compared to other energy companies. 'The Pit Bull' - Lee Lowell Lee is a true 'insider.' He has been trading options for 14 years, starting out as a market maker in the pit of the New York Mercantile Exchange (NYMEX).

That doesn't necessarily mean we employ a buy-and-hold strategy. After all, we're after fast, exhilarating gains - with dramatically less risk. Maybe you've experienced the excitement of gaining 40% on a stock in a single day... 216% in a week or two... 655% in a few months - where your little $1,000 investment suddenly turns into some serious cash. Quite a feeling, isn't it? Our members know that feeling well. That's the kind of success we shoot for here at Mt. Vernon Research with every recommendation in our Accelerated Profits Report. And I'm happy to say we've had plenty of success... employing some of the very best strategies used by professional investors, top brokerage firms and hedge fund managers. For instance our experts have racked up: $2.50 for every 5 cents net at risk - a staggering 4,900% gain on Chesapeake Energy... A quick 88% gain on a company called Lexar when Micron Technology made a play for it... A nice 55% gain on Microsoft when that stock bounced a couple bucks higher in recent months... 40.9% on Nokia in a little more than five months. 1,100% on net at-risk figures in Lockheed Martin in two-and-a-half months. Earn those kinds of gains every couple months and you'll be amazed at how quickly your portfolio grows - with significantly less downside risk.

Three New Ethanol Plants Will Meet the Growing Demands The third opportunity I'd like to tell you about is one I've been following for a while as part of my Accelerated Profits Report research. This one has me very excited... It's an $8.4 billion company that specializes in taking stakes in private companies by providing them with funding. Since it went public in 1997, its share price is up about 185%. In February, the company (let's call it Company A) invested $85 million in Company B to construct three large-scale ethanol production facilities. Other investors include a division of the largest privately held company in the U.S., which focuses on food and agriculture. This is important, since it will be providing the raw materials for the fuel for each of Company B's plants. When finished, the plants will produce a combined 300 million plus gallons of fuel grade ethanol, which will ultimately be sold to crude oil refiners and gasoline blenders as either an oxygenate or fuel extender. After the investment, Company A will own more than 41% of the venture. Using VeraSun, a different ethanol IPO that recently came public, as a yardstick of performance valuation, the future value of Company A's stake would be worth just north of $1 billion. The market capitalization of Company A is about $4 billion in total. If you do the math, you'll see that it's getting close to $1 billion in value for its hundred-million-dollar investment. Another big positive is the amount of shares - nearly $52 million worth - company insiders have purchased recently. Company officers and directors know their companies better than you or I ever could, and that's why insider buying is the ultimate indicator that a stock is poised for blast-off. Plus, the company just increased its quarterly dividends after announcing another strong quarter. The rate, based on the current share price of $45 is around 8%. With a track record of raising dividends and returning capital to shareholders, the company has established a strong following from institutional types like Wachovia, which just opened a large, unsecured credit facility for the company. It's all very exciting... And you can find all the up-to-date recommendations on how we plan to take advantage of the ethanol boom in a very special report: Pump Up Your Profits With Ethanol - which you'll receive free with your subscription to the Accelerated Profits Report.
