Japan's Mitsubishi Heavy Industries Ltd. is a major player in both emerging technologies. Its carbon capture efforts include the Petra Nova project, which recovers carbon dioxide emitted by a power plant in Texas so it can be injected into oil fields to improve their output, and a deal struck this year with U.K. power company Drax Group PLC. It is part of a consortium planning to produce hydrogen in the Humber industrial cluster in Northern England and plans to invest in what is called blue hydrogen, which is produced from natural gas.

Stocks to Watch:

While Canadian Weed Producers Wilt, American Operators Like Green Thumb Thrive -- Barrons.com

American cannabis chains continued to outperform their Canadian counterparts in the September quarter -- by a widening margin. While U.S. operators like Curaleaf Holdings and Green Thumb Industries grew sales by a respective 74% and 50% over the prior-year quarter, Canadians like Cronos Group and Canopy Growth took write downs of $220 million and $87 million, respectively, because they can't sell what they've got.

The licensed cannabis industry in the U.S. now has annualized sales of $25 billion, on its way to $75 billion ...$80 billion, or more, Green Thumb chief executive Ben Kovler told Barron's Thursday. His company is preparing for the start of adult recreational sales -- within the next year or so -- in four big states: New Jersey, New York, Connecticut and Virginia.

After reporting quarterly cash earnings growth of 53%, Green Thumb saw its shares (ticker: GTIBF) jump 15% Thursday to $25 on the over-the-counter market -- where the stock must trade because the federal illegality of state-licensed cannabis prevents U.S. stock exchanges from listing the shares of American operators. Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (adjusted further for noncash charges) were $81 million, or about 36 cents a share, on sales of $234 million.
