Top 10 Diversified Bank Companies To Buy For 2015

For some time now, the United States has been exporting crude oil to Canada on a very small scale. These exports took place in an environment of declining U.S. oil production. Fortunately for Americans, the times have changed, and we are predicted to be energy-independent by 2035 because of a surge in domestic oil and natural gas production.

Aside from our national security, publicly traded companies are already trying to benefit from this scenario. Look no further than BP (NYSE: BP  ) and Royal Dutch Shell (NYSE: RDS-A  ) , which both received permission last year to export crude oil from the United States to refineries in Canada. While this is a small start, the debate is likely to gain momentum for greater exports. This comes alongside the ongoing tensions surrounding exporting liquefied natural gas.

If this trend is to move forward on a larger scale, several refineries could see the prices they pay for domestic crude rise. Many have been exporting refined products for quite some time, so it would simply be adjusting the timing of exports to an earlier point on the production life-cycle.�

The Vision/Tjet administers injectables by using a spring to push the active ingredient in solution or suspension through a micro-fine opening in the needle-free syringe. The opening is approximately half the diameter of a 30-gauge needle. The Vision/Tjet is primarily used in the United States, Europe, Asia and Japan.

  Two weeks ago, yours truly made the point that all beverage makers ranging from small niche players like National Beverage Corp. (NASDAQ:FIZZ) to the mega-sized names like The Coca-Cola Company (NYSE:KO) that little ol' KonaRed Corp. (OTCBB:KRED) was coming on fast... not just in terms of product innovation, but in terms of its retail footprint. Not that there was any doubt in the meantime, but KRED laid down another piece of evidence to that end today that should have the likes of KO and FIZZ concerned. Simply put, the flagship Konared product (juice from the fruit that surrounds coffee beans) is soon going to found on the shelves of 80 additional Canadian grocery stores.

  Quick, what do Wal-Mart Stores, Inc. (NYSE:WMT), Whole Foods Market, Inc. (NASDAQ:WFM), and Jamba, Inc. (NASDAQ:JMBA) - the purveyor of Jamba Juice smoothie shops - have in common? They're all three offering at least one product from KonaRed Corp. (OTCBB:KRED). All told, KRED products can be found in a variety of retail outlets, ranging from mass marketers like WMT to niche players like WFM to service providers like JMBA to convenience stores like 7-Eleven to grocers like Albertson's to.... well, the point becomes clear. KonaRed is in a lot of places. Yet, the number of spots where a KRED could multiply by eight by the middle of the year. In fact, the organization's growth rate is the most exciting - and perhaps most understated - aspect of the KonaRed story.

  Look out PepsiCo, Inc. (NYSE:PEP) and The Coca-Cola Company (NYSE:KO). While you may be the de facto leaders in the overall beverage race, you've got a vulnerability a smaller - and better - competitor is going to exploit. And worse, that competitor now has a partner that could make it an even more formidable enemy... and that partner used to be an enemy, of sorts. The competition The Coca-Cola Company and PepsiCo (and by extension, KO and PEP shareholders) need to worry about is Konared Corp. (OTCBB:KRED). While it's inconceivable that KRED would ever dethrone the two kings of the beverage world, it's quite conceivable that Konared and its new partner could make life difficult for Coke and Pepsi, while carving out a solid piece of a particular market for itself.
