Solar Power: Is It Ready for Real This Time?

To me investing in solar is all about short periods of time because these stocks are so volatile. I read a few articles about solar lately. Costs of production are coming down because a key ingredient poly-silicon is in over abundance; price drop is 93% as of a few months ago.

This price drop has put solar energy production much closer to a breakeven. When countries in Europe started pulling the plug on government subsidies solar stocks tanked a few years ago. I'm looking SunPower (SPWR - Analyst Report) on a pull back, like a lot stocks SPWR has been hot year to date.

GE (GE - Analyst Report) is building a huge solar panel plant. With production costs going down and the big guys (GE) getting in Solar power is not going away. SPWR has some big name investment house attention lately with their 5 energy plays this year. When SPWR pulls back a little I'm in.

There are others names left in solar since the industry shake out last year. Solar is still a very risky trade but there are good signs that it could be rewarding risk.

The most recent picks by «horsedentist» are:
A buy rating on SunPower (SPWR - Analyst Report),
a buy rating on United Rentals (URI - Snapshot Report) and
a buy rating on Silver Wheaton (SLW - Snapshot Report).
