  8. Having some tech difficulties today. Adobe thing going away, Firefox is way old don't know my master password... the usual!

    There was a blurb about companies for the Texas situation and the smallest I looked up only could find old news but look what they do.

    If you're looking to pick up long-term exposure to energy at a discount without taking much risk of capital impairment, Texas-based Thermon(NYSE:THR) looks like a very good candidate at its current share price in the high teens. While shares don't have the near- or medium-term leverage to an energy recovery that some more challenged companies have, that's offset by a defensible position in an important niche, with a lucrative recurring-revenue component driving more stable margins and growth than you would normally expect.

    The Challenge: Cold Markets Cooling Off

    Thermon's primary line of business is heat tracing, which, summarily, refers to solutions that provide an external heat source to pipes and instruments. There are various applications - outdoors, it helps protect against freezing; inside major facilities, on the other hand, tracing can help regulate flow and keep plants running the way they need to. Since it's a pretty niche area, for more details than you could possibly want on the various types of tracing systems,

    From an investment perspective, the major attraction is that there are only two sizable players in the market (as I'll touch on in a moment), and whenever a new facility is installed using heat tracing, it generates a lucrative ongoing maintenance business (generally in the high single digits as a percentage of installed revenue).

    The majority of Thermon's business is in the oil and gas markets (split between upstream and downstream) as well as chemicals and a few others. While downstream and chemicals are doing relatively well, upstream has obviously been the major challenge, especially since a lot of Thermon's business here was levered to the Canadian oil sands. The Canadian business was down 57% through the first three quarters of FY16 (including FX).

    Sounds like these guys could get more into the personal side of the market... The grid itselfless oil and gas..???

    Opportunity.
    the only other major player in heat tracing is Pentair's(NYSE:PNR) Thermal Management business, which came over fromTyco(NYSE:TYC) a few years back and is reported through the Technical Solutions segment. Pentair is about a quarter of the market while Thermon is about a fifth, and the next largest player is merely 4%.
