It's Wednesday, April 11th. This is Market Fullery. I'm Chris Hill and joining me in studio today

from Motley Fool Pro Jeff Fisher and from Motley Fool's stock advisor, Jason Moser and Brian White.

Gentlemen, good to see you.

Hey there.

We've got a lot going on in the energy industry.

We're going to take a look at how hybrid cars are doing and we have a fabulous new ad campaign

from Unilever. But Jeff Fisher, let's start with Alcoa because Alcoa officially

kicked off earnings season shares up more than 7% this morning. What's the good news?

Alcoa did. Alcoa is setting the tone for the market today, which is a nicely positive

tone after five down days. They're really surprised everybody. They were expected to report a

loss. They reported a gain, and the CEO said

that they are seeing growth in virtually all global and markets, but particularly in aerospace,

airplanes and automobiles, which shouldn't be surprising to us.

Car sales are rising pretty much everywhere.

So even though aluminum pricing is down quite a bit nearly double digits year over year.

Their revenue is held up as their volume goes up.

So that's a good sign.

Jase?

I gotta believe that our diet co-consumption probably helps somewhat, Chris, right?

I would hope so. Yeah you too yeah definitely yeah

you're welcome now fella. Let's move on to energy US coal exports

reach their highest level in two decades due to strong demand from Asia and Europe.
