From The Stock Masters

Capstone Turbine (CPST) is trading just 3 cents above its 52 week low today at only $.88 a share. Just think, you could go crazy at a 99 Cent store or 99 Cent Storespick up a few shares of Capston, is it me, or are their more 99 Cent stores than people in America?This is an interesting company that could be undervalued right now,we’ve been keeping an eye on it since May ’06 when shares were tradingaround $4.50. They’ve been under a dollar for about a month now, ifthey get a de-listing warning they will have to do something to bringtheir stock price back up. We normally don’t even look at stocks under$1, but the risk/reward ratio could be too good to pass up on CPST. We encourage you to do your own research before even thinking about buying this stock.CPST does not have an impressive track record – this month theyreported a Q4 loss of $8.5M and revenue declined to $5M from $7M whencompared to the same quarter last year. Capstone has some real hatersout there, the Motley Fool ran a great article with an even better title last month called "Keep your Hands out of the Turbine – Capstone is one of the worst stocks I’ve ever seen." Again, 99 Cent store or CPST, you decide.
