Marcelo Coelho, on his blog Ethanol Brasil, reports that respected Brazilian journalist Luis Nassif believes there are three kinds of companies operating on the Brazilian ethanol market: the traditional sugar family companies, which are investing heavily in the expansion of their operations; the new investors, such as Felipe Reichstull, former president of Petrobras, who has been attracting huge sums of money to increase Brazilian production; and there are the speedy types, who are purchasing mills with low potential and, essentially, putting lipstick on the pig, in hopes of passing it along to unsuspecting buyers.
