		<description><![CDATA[There are still plenty of opportunities to invest in the developing smart grid or &#8220;Enernet&#8221; &#8211; such as First Trust&#8217;s GRID ETF. Remember a couple of years ago when you couldn’t get away from reading about the smart grid or what some others refer to as the Enernet? Today in the news it’s almost as if production on the first great infrastructure project of the twenty-first century has all but stopped. But don’t be fooled… Spending on the smart grid is still growing at a compound annual rate of 17.4%. According to London research firm, Visiongain, the global smart grid market will total $33.91 billion this year. In the next three years, MarketWatch reports that number is projected to exceed $46.5 billion. There are still plenty of opportunities to take ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Itron Inc. (ITRI) recently announced the completion of the installation of more than 150,000 Itron gas meter communication modules in Greater Houston for a natural gas distribution subsidiary of CenterPoint Energy Inc. (CNP). The project will include a total of 1.2 million communication modules and will be completed by 2013. These meters can effectively do away with the necessity of entering the premises of customers to take the readings manually. These communication modules employ the radio transmitting devices attached to the CenterPoint Energy’s customers’ existing natural gas meters, enabling the collection of readings once a month by a mobile meter reading device mounted to a CenterPoint Energy vehicle. According to Itron, CenterPoint is an old and valued customer and Itron is looking forward to conferring the benefits of smart metering ]]></description>

While the gross margin declined sequentially after 5 quarters of increase, Agilent saw both operating and net margins continuing to expand. Revenue Agilent’s revenue grew 14.5% sequentially and 35.7% year over year. Excluding the impact of Varian, Agilent’s revenues were up 27.3% sequentially and 35.0% from last year, much better than management’s expectations of a 16-19% year-over-year increase excluding Varian. While sequential growth was evenly balanced across geographies Incorporatedrease from the year-ago quarter was varied. Asia witnessed the strongest growth at 39.5%, followed by Europe, which grew 35.7% and then the Americas, which grew 32.2%. Agilent’s strong growth in Asia was fueled by ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[We maintain our Neutral recommendation for Itron, Inc. (ITRI) which means the stock should perform mostly in line with the broader market. The AMI (advanced metering infrastructure) and AMR (automated meter reading) markets exhibit the maximum growth potential. Some ongoing projects with giant water and waste producers will enhance its brand reorganization and expand its hold in the market. However, competitive threats from bigger companies, exposure to the European market and long sales cycles may have adverse effects on its business. We believe the technology-based AMI and AMR markets have huge growth prospects in the years ahead, providing Itron with ample scope for growth and expansion. AMR and AMI meters are capable of managing, measuring, collecting, analyzing and transferring large data sets using radio frequency or mobile or network technologies ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Moody&#8217;s Investors Service, a subsidiary of Moody&#8217;s Corp. (MCO) confirmed its senior unsecured rating of ‘Baa3’, a low-end investment grade rating and its senior subordinate debt as Ba1, a speculative grade rating for Roper Industries Inc. (ROP). Roper provides energy systems, industrial technology and radio frequency products and solutions to the water, energy, radio frequency and research industries. The rating was reaffirmed on the basis of Roper’s business diversification and limited customer concentration. Moreover, Moody&#8217;s raised Roper&#8217;s outlook to ‘positive’ from ‘stable’ and expects to raise the rating in the near term, if Roper maintains its current financial profile and key credit metrics. According to Moody&#8217;s, Roper benefited from a strong margin expansion. Despite an overall decline in its revenues and orders during 2009, the company generated impressive cash flow. ]]></description>

The world’s leading semiconductor intellectual property supplier, it operates a unique business model. The company designs and licenses intellectual property. And that sets it apart from the more typical focus on manufacturing and semiconductor chip sales. ARM Holdings designs microprocessors for low-powered gadgets. More than 95% of the world’s cell phones include its products, as does over 25% of all electronic devices. That includes digital cameras, power switches, industrial machinery and the Apple (Nasdaq: AAPL) iPad. ARM has even been with the newly crowned “largest tech company” since its founding back in 1990. The British business has no apparent intention on slowing down anytime soon either. It continues to reach outward into devices such as smartcards, set-top boxes ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Last week, Itron Inc. (ITRI) reported third-quarter earnings of 45 cents per share, below the Zacks Consensus Estimate of 51 cents and 44% lower than the prior-year level. Earnings disappointment was primarily a result of uncertainty surrounding stimulus fund allocation and unfavorable foreign currency exchange rates. Quarterly revenue of $408.4 million was down 15.8% from $484.8 million in the third quarter of 2008. Itron North America revenue was 22% lower than that in the comparable quarter of 2008 due to the completion of a number of AMR contracts in 2008 and fewer electric meters shipped during the quarter as customers delayed orders due to uncertainty regarding the stimulus bill. International revenues fell 12% from the year-ago level. Majority of this decline was caused by the unfavorable impact of foreign exchange ]]></description>
