		<description><![CDATA[The hotels and lodging industry shaped up pretty well in 2011 thanks to the gradual global economic recovery, and seems to be poised for long-term growth. With the return of business as well as leisure travelers coupled with decelerating supply growth, pricing power remained steady in the year. Improvement in the U.S. economy and the consequent rise in operating metrics helped most of the hoteliers report strong quarterly results. Group bookings appear to be gaining momentum and the companies registered strong advance bookings and pricing for 2012 and beyond. Booking windows are also lengthening. However, macro headwinds can partially restrain the booking momentum in 2012. International Growth Owing to the saturation in the U.S market, major hoteliers are exploring growth opportunities abroad.

The industry has been witnessing a return of business travelers and a growing demand for leisure, though concerns about the health of the U.S. economic recovery pose some risks to this outlook. Riding on the back of improvement in the U.S. economy and the consequent rise in operating metrics, most of the hoteliers have started reporting strong quarterly results. Profits are expected to rise further in 2011 as bookings continue to improve. Despite some uncertainty about the near-term economic growth outlook notwithstanding, group bookings appear to be gaining momentum and the companies are recording strong advance bookings and pricing for 2012 and beyond. Booking windows are also lengthening. ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Massachusetts-based Evergreen Solar Inc.’s (ESLR) fortunes look sunnier in England after a panel variant of the company, ES-A series qualified for the Microgeneration Certification Scheme (MCS) of the United Kingdom&#8217;s Department of Energy. The certification is mandatory for solar panels to be used for the Renewables Cash-Back Scheme and therefore, vital for Evergreen Solar. The Renewables Cash-Back Scheme has been active in the UK since April 2010. Per the scheme, homeowners and communities along the coast who install solar panels are even paid for the electricity they generate and consume themselves. Given the fact that the UK has more than 19,000 miles of coastline, the certification is an early Christmas gift for Evergreen Solar. Evergreen Solar’s spotlight on U.K. comes at an opportune moment with The UK Renewable Energy Strategy ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[With a gradual recovery of the global economy, the hotels and lodging industry is experiencing an increase in demand. The operating metrics are looking up, and year-over-year comparisons are becoming easier as the operating environment was significantly stressed in the prior year. Though businesses are still cost-conscious, the recovery in the economy has seen a return of business travelers, with leisure demand increasing as well. However, the rate of improvement is still sluggish, in keeping with the slow pace of the economic revival. Since the U.S. market is somewhat saturated, hoteliers are exploring growth opportunities abroad. Hotel companies are seeing higher demand in the international market, as the pace of economic recovery is particularly fast outside the U.S. U.S.-based companies are targeting the fast-growing emerging economies.

		<description><![CDATA[The operating environment in the hotels and lodging industry has continued to deteriorate in the last several quarters, and we expect the operating metrics to remain stretched in the near term. As the recession continues, both business and leisure travelers are cutting back on trips. However, with some early signs of economic recovery, the industry is experiencing an increase in demand. While hotel occupancy levels have somewhat improved, we noticed that pricing pressures persists as hotels continue to offer heavily discounted rates to draw in travelers. As such, we expect profits to remain restricted in this environment. In evaluating hotel companies such as Starwood Hotels and Resorts Worldwide Inc. (HOT) and Marriott International Inc. (MAR), we will be paying close attention to changes in average daily room rates as an ]]></description>
