Solarfun's Huge Run: Time To Lock in Solar Profits

you are either a scardey cat daytrader or have a short agenda. That short scare tactic worked before, not this time bucko. More real investors have the flick now. Shorts are DEAD meat in this secor!

Everything They Tell You About Solar Is Wrong - Travis Bradford

Travis Bradford makes some excellent points about the cost model for comparing solar vs other sources. This is the kind of artice that policy makers need to see. Nuke plants do not make economic or environmental sense. A nuclear plant costs billions , takes 10 years to plan and build and leaves radioactive waste for generations , no 10,000 years. A solar farm can provide clean energy FOREVER as long as people maintain it and upgrade it over the years and the sun still shines. And a PV solar farm can be constructed quickly as well as on peoples homes. But it takes the right planning and we need motovated leaders. Therein lies the problem. The leaders are too tied to knee jerk republican energy oil drill heads. The windfall profits of large oil Co's should be taxed to get the thing started in the US. We need change and the planet depends on it or I should say life as we know it , depends on it. The head of NASA even says we have ONE last chance to change the path of climate change and it has to be over the next ten years.

Regarding investments, I think SOLF and ESLR are two long term stocks to go long. SOLF is a Chinese ADR and ESLR has a highly efficient solar panel that gets much more juice than the thin film panels. Both are very undervalued at present levels, in my humble opinon

Solarfun Will Lead Its Sector Higher with Surprise Earnings

interesting article, thanks.. SOLF completed acquisition of an ingot and wafer facllty. SOLF now has an new advantage of producing solar panels with 100 % in house resources.. SOLF is a new leader and I believe will outperform. Smart $, imho, goes long here on SOLF.

Illegal Short Sellers May Face RICO Indictments

naked shorting is a big problem attacking many good co's. The Feds found oyuut with FRE and FNM and did not like it. What about the little guy in stocks. ? nobody gives a rats ass if we lose our ass fighting these bums on msg boards and trying to stay long. When talking heads constantly come to the defense of going after the tricksters , you know they are afraid that investigations may hit too close to home. The hedge witches of wallstreet have a come-up-ence overdue. I hope the SEC goes after naked shorters with all their power. But the SEC can do things immediatly to help like reinstill the uptick rule effective right NOW. and make it ILLEGAL punishable by fine and loss of their position for naked short selling..

Confessions of a Shallow Solar Trader

Nice article...

You call it as you trade it on a technical stock basis, But I would suggest that you start building more conviction. I think you're gonna end up daytrading away something really big comng.

also you really may want to consider the electrical efficiency and manufacting advantages. If you do that, you may find two stocks extremeley undervalued, ESLR and SOLF..

ESLR panels get 2 X's the electricity than Ener's and 50 % over FSLR's, and ESLR manufactures from start to finish including the wafers from theie propietary string ribbion process.

Also consider solar infrastructure required and look at penny stock SATC. They sold 10 inverters to spain and they go for about $270,000 each! Industrial level inverters for solar farms, Google bought some too to power their own facilty. Google has other facilities all around the world.

Well nice article, I liked it cause you were honest in how you treat the sector. I think they are becoming more than daytrades and will be a growing phenomena over the next 10 years/ See my blog for more and scroll down for the post on electrical effciency.

Thanks, Spider
