For longer term investors, your age can be your "safety net"

Your age is a starting point for how much of your portfolio should be invested in bonds and cash. This means, as a starting point or rule of thumb:

A) 30 years of age = 70% growth / 30% income

B) 50 years of age = 50% growth / 50% income

C) 70 years of age = 30% growth / 70% income

Of course this is only a rule-of-thumb and individual investors should consult their advisors about the ideal allocation for themselves. If one is somewhat risk averse, but still concerned about protecting assets from longer term inflation, a less volatile portfolio would be comprised of:

A) 30 years of age = 60% growth / 40% income

B) 50 years of age = 40% growth / 60% income

C) 70 years of age = 20% growth / 80% income

Further risk-rduction can be achieved by investing in funds rather than individual securities, particiualrly valid advice for smaller and medium size portfolios.

For those around 50 who have shied away from stocks and stock funds the past few years, the shakeout you feared has occurred and it may be worthwhile to dollar-cost-avrage into a rebablancing program that gradually brings your equity up to the desired level.

Recent weeks have been troublesome for professional and individual investors alike, but other basic rules of thumb and aphorisms must also be kept in mind:

Invest at the sound of cannons, divest at the sound of violins.

Buy when there's blood in the streets ...

When everyone is greedy, be a little fearful. When everyone is fearful, be a little greedy.


And on a more sobering note:

Never try to catch a falling knife ...

The trend is your friend ...


One thing to keep in mind is that you can almost eliminate individual company risk while enjoying strong sector returns by investing green stock mutual funds, clean energy investment funds, wind power ETFs, solar energy mutual funds and other diversified renewable power growth vehicles.

A stock that is way down can indicate a troubled company on the way to zero, while a mutual fund representing a hard-hit sector often offersextraordinary capital gains opportunities with much lower risk than investing in individual securities. Here is a link to some well-managed green energy stock funds, as gradually building positions in clean energy funds is a prudent strategy for longterm growth investors.

For this article on WaterIntelll.com, we are focusing on energy from water (tidal, wave, hydro), water purification / wastewater treatment, water desalination / water recycling and water conservation technology companies.

Some water stocks to research:



World's top water filtration company closed at 32.07 with a market capitalization of 3.8 billion, The PE is 18.2, the yield is 1.6% and PLL continues to exhibit strong revenue growth. The year's high was 43.19.



BMII manufactures flow measurement and control products for water utilities, municipal utilities and industrial customers globally. At 37.66, the shares are down from 62. 74 and now offer a PE of 23.9 and a yield of 1.17%. Again, here's a water-related stock that lomngterm investors will want to look into.



WTS is a specialist in water quality, water safety, water flow control and water conservation  with steadily growing revnues. At 27.86, the stock trades at 14.34 times earnings and yields 1.58%. Watts Water Tech is a solid USA growth company with rising worldwide sales, and with the stock not far off its 52 week high of 33.00, and from a medium term trading point of view, it has the potential to be among the first American stocks to regularly appear on New High stock lists, possibly giving it another $7 or 8 of momentum beyond the previous high. Definitely worth researching to assess how solid the revenue growth is ...



KHD is actually far more involved in the wind energy industry these days than they are in hydropower, but their roots are in small-scale hydropower and they are good at it. Developer, owner and operator of 20 EcoLogo certified generating facilities totaling 364 megawatt net to its interest located in British Columbia, Alberta, Ontario, and Québec with 12 run of river hydroelectric plants; seven wind plants and one biomass plant. One wind project in development is an additional 132 megawatts and there are other projects in the pipeline. At 3,38, down from 8.01, the stock remains speculative but offers a diversified longterm green energy investment and a an experienced team.




OPTT is a wave energy technology leader that has developed the PowerBuoy wave power system. Though revenues are minimal they are starting to grow, and with the PowerBuoy already in operation off Spain, Ocean Power is worth researching.

This high potential clean energy stock closed today at 7.00, down from 19.75, with just over ten million shares outstanding.

Wave Power Stocks, Tidal Energy Investing News

Energy from Water: Emerging Wave Power and Tidal Energy Companies

Tidal Energy is a largely untapped, renewable energy source based on lunar gravitation rather than solar radiation, a form of hydropower that converts the energy from water inflows and outflows into pure electricity.

Wave power refers to the energy of ocean surface waves and the capture of that energy to do useful work — including electricity generation, water desalination, and water pumping. It is distinct from tidal power in that wave energy is not dependent on rising and falling tides but on consistent rolling waves, and similar to tidal power in that both are husely untapped green energy resources perfect for populations living near coastlines.

Here are some tidal power and wave energy stocks in the news recently:





The beach at Agucadoura, just north of Porto, is where electricity from the world's first wave farm is being cabled ashore. Five kilometres out to sea a Pelamis wave machine is gently riding the Atlantic swell, generating power for the Portuguese grid.

Each one has four long sections with three "power modules" hinged between them. There are large hydraulic rams sticking into the modules. As the long sections twist and turn in the waves they pull the rams in and out of the modules like pistons. The huge force of the rams is harnessed to run generators in the power modules. But tethering the snakes to the seabed is a major challenge. The system has to be able to cope with the worst sea conditions.

Full Article on Pelamis Wave Power on BBC.co.uk


23SEP08 - Ocean Power Technologies announces launch of first wave energy system off Spain. OPTT has deployed the initial 40 kilowatt PowerBuoy, the beginning of an array that will produce about 1.4 megawatts, after 9 bigger versions of the PowerBuoy are launched over the next year. Partnered with companies such as Iberdola in Spain and Total in France, OPTT expects to develop additional wave power farms off UK, France and Hawaii.

23SEP08 - The Scotland Government pledges more funds for wave energy and tidal power. Already a world-leader in development of energy from water flow systems, with world-class installations in operation in the Orkney Islands area, the Scots have stepped up to the plate with additional funding for emerging renewable energy technology companies in the wave power and tidal energy sectors.

18SEP08 - Verdant Power updating technology within its tidal energy generators in NYC's East River. Verdant Power has retrofitted two of its tidal turbines with 5th-generation rotors and successfully re-installed the units in the East River. The two grid-connected 35kW turbines are now delivering clean renewable energy from the tides of the East River to a Gristedes supermarket and the RIOC Motorgate parking structure on Roosevelt Island in New York City. Verdant Power's Kinetic Hydropower Systems use axial-flow turbines, resembling present-day wind turbines, installed underwater to convert the kinetic energy of tides and rivers into electricity without the use of dams.

The company's new rotor assembly (blades and hub) was optimized for enhanced structural strength and was subjected to a testing regimen at the U.S. Department of Energy's National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL), the nation's primary laboratory for renewable energy and energy efficiency research and development. The entire rotor assembly passed the tests successfully without incident.

Full article on Phase 2 of Verdant Power's Roosevelt Island Tidal Energy (RITE) Project.


09SEP08 - Atlantis Resources acquires tidal power developer Current Resources from Morgan Stanley.

Atlantis has developed two families of sub-sea turbines that have been tested over a decade of field trials, Solon, a deep-water turbine suitable for installation in some of the fastest flowing currents in the world and Nereus, a shallow-water turbine which has been extensively tested, and grid connected in San Remo, Australia. Both have been specifically developed to suit installation of multiple turbines in fields or arrays.The company is currently evaluating potential installation opportunities in the Pentland Firth off Northern Scotland, in the Bay of Fundy and British Columbia off the East and West Coasts of North America, respectively, as well as off the coast of South Korea.

Water for water - India has shown its intention to resolve the dispute of stopping water flow of Chenab in the form of water for water. In this connection it has proposed a meeting of the Indus Water Commission (IWC) to assess reduction in the water flow, as Pakistan had earlier called for an explanation over the reduction in water level following trial running of Baglihar power project in Jammu. Pakistan High Commissioner in New Delhi Shahid Malik was told that the water level in Chenab was lower this year as compared to last year due to insufficient rains. Pakistan had been already informed about the impending reduction in the water level as filling of the Baglihar Dam was in progress. The level has now returned to the normal, Shahid said, adding figures given were much lower than the water released by India. Three units of the controversial Baglihar power project are expected to generate electricity next week. PakPressWatch.com article on Chenab River water flow / Baglihar hydropower project
