What happened Friday is turning out to be another good day to own shares of FuelCell Energy (NASDAQ: FCEL). Yesterday, FuelCell joined a broad-based rally that swept all the major fuel cell names, which charged higher on news that category leader Plug Power (NASDAQ: PLUG) was receiving a $1.5 billion investment from a large South Korean industrial conglomerate. Today, FuelCell stock is up another 3% as of 1:15 p.m. EST, but today's news isn't half as good. Image source: Getty Images. So what Adding detail to previous reports on Jefferies' initiation of coverage of FuelCell stock yesterday, this morning TheFly.com noted, again, that the investment banker assigned FuelCell only a hold rating -- and an $11 price target, implying there's about 29% downside risk in the stock. Policy changes that would benefit renewable energy, including hydrogen, helped send FuelCell's stock flying in 2020, according to Jefferies as reported by TheFly. But despite these tailwinds, and despite a bigger "war chest" of cash collected from recent stock issuances, Jefferies was led to conclude that all of the pluses accruing to FuelCell stock in the past year are now baked into the stock's price. Now what Translation: Even if you believe the mammoth 575% gain in share price FuelCell has seen over the past 12 months is justified, there's really no more room for this stock to run higher at this point -- and that implies that the only direction FuelCell shares can go from here is down. Investors today seem not to agree with that assessment, but after reviewing the company's 20-year-plus history of doing nothing but lose money, I'm afraid I'm going to have to side with Jefferies on this one. 10 stocks we like better than FuelCell EnergyWhen investing geniuses David and Tom Gardner have a stock tip, it can pay to listen.
