Just yesterday, one of those Fools, 2good2betrue, tapped World Fuel as a particularly timely opportunity:
[A]s I read about this company and what they do, I like where they are going and their acquisitions seem to jive with their core competency. I put my low end target as [$50 per share] with an opportunistic target of [$55] which should come about when their latest acquisition starts to show up in their financials.
