I've heard that adage, but I'm not sure how they define a "great company." To me, a great company has not only a growing market for its products but management skills and a track record that point to capability to take advantage of a growing market. FuelCell has some good technology, but I'm not sure of the rest, including a sound business plan. It's rarely true that the hype given to one company in a market sector extends to other companies in the sector. Yes, the gains in business in one company may lead to gains for another related company, but that's in terms of unit sales, revenues, and brand recognition. It doesn't necessarily lead to profits, which are, in the final analysis, what causes a stock to flourish. I've been monitoring FCEL for about 10 years, but I'ml not ready to invest. Art
