5/14/2008 5:32:32 PM Niko: IMO, the solars except for FSLR and CSIQ did not participate to the extent that OIH has in the most recent run. It is hard for me to accept a "Dirty" commodity comparison with the "Green" movement. The reason for keeping the solars is that this is a long term play in the IRA. The U.S. and world must do something to cut back on fossil fuels. Most every chart has a pattern of Higher Highs and Higher lows, since the solar meltdown finished in mid March or so. Also, most earnings are beating estimates. I think it is fair to assume that solar will be put up on the center stage of the Green movement as Ethanol is probably pushing food prices up to fast. In California, there is legislation being put thru the assembly that may require power companies to buy the excess energy created by solar panels on residences this could create much more demand. California usually leads the nation in social awareness regarding the Green movement. If passed, solar could be on the move. IMO, It is just a matter of when. The new ETF - TAN is a good play on this. It feels like the next great bubble to me and it is lowish right now. Kinda of like Gold etc. was in 2004. Sure more capacity will force prices down but if the hype takes hold we are off to the races. I will buy the Nuclear ETF NLR at some point too. By the way I own CSIQ but not FSLR (they are in the ETF though) BTW, I sincerely hope there is a market meltdown as my Russel and Nasdaq and OIH puts would greatly benefit. (and I have many more of these.) I do appreciate your input though. C Trout |

5/14/2008 10:40:25 PM JP: Working in the summer is probably better than trading. How does that saying go? "Sell in May and go away" (well maybe short) FYI, I am a mortgage broker....one of the good guys though. I'm getting a kick out of the Banks taking it on the chin. You wouldn't believe the crap they were selling and trying to get us to sell. I wouldn't sell it. |
