Emerging Markets Continue to Drive the Coal Industry
Five Star Equities Provides Stock Research on Arch Coal & Peabody Energy

(firmenpresse) - NEW YORK, NY -- (Marketwire) -- 01/10/12 -- Coal demand has remained strong in recent quarters as massive capacity addition plans in both China and India drive the industry. The latest findings from the International Energy Agency find that coal demand in China alone will rise by 606 million tons of coal equivalent (mtce) to 3,123 mtce by 2016. Five Star Equities examines investing opportunities in the coal industry and provides equity research on Arch Coal, Inc. (NYSE: ACI) and Peabody Energy Corporation (NYSE: BTU).

According to the latest research from PINC Research, coal demand is expected to remain strong going forward, while prices will be volatile in the short term, as supply responses are not in phase with demand signals. Fuel, which accounts for 33% of the overall cost of production, witnessed a significant increase in price last year -- raising the breakeven price for producers. According to PINC's research, if prices sustain above US$125-130/ ton there could be significant supplies from USA and Canada.
