Is Solar Energy DEAD?

[billyjoe]

River,
Our land runs into the Erie Metroparks. On the high side of an abandoned quarry they built an observation deck. From there on a clear day you can see the Davis Bessie Nuclear Power plant over 30 miles away. Also looking over the Lake you see the Perry's Monument on Put- in -Bay. It's one of the highest points in the county and they say was once the south shore of Lake Erie. The soil and rock formations are completely different as you go north and the change happens in just a few feet. Rock to the south and topsoil to the north.

I'm still trying to figure how a guy on tv rigged up his solar panels to get 10X the energy and he sold the excess to the power company. It looked bad but apparently worked. May have seen it on the Discovery Channel. I know it was the show where they drive across the country on anything but gasoline and stop at alternative energy locations along the way.

We're looking into getting one of those giant windmills on our farm. I think they pay 1700 per month. The land isn't farmed but overgrown and wooded. Used to be vineyard and 5000 apple trees 50 years ago. Giant electrical towers are about 75 yards from lot line.

What a great idea! Do you have a lot of wind out that way? I guess it all depends if you can negotiate a deal with the local power company. Sounds worthwhile to look into.

Both SOEN and DSTI Bollinger Bands are squeezing together -- a move in one direction or the other is imminent

AWNE === This company is into wind generators, and may be a play at this level also. Not sure if they are into the production stage yet like OEGY, but are purchasing parts and making deal with fabercators for parts.

XSNX === This one's market is the film on windows to produce power. They are tring to set up as a company to have their product install on large scale buildings which have a large amount of glass surface. Marlin

Solar is still hot! Wait for opportunities to buy.

OEGY is the play that I've been following, solar roofing tile for pitched roofs. Have fin. lined up and orders are starting to appear at their door step. May be starting to trend up after a long stent at this level of 0.30 cents. May be one to watch here in the the short term. Marlin

I'm taking SOLF short when $14.82 fails (that's the 200 day moving avg.). Still I can see why you took it long here.

Well...I took it long because it was moving up at the time...till about 10 seconds after I bot it anyway...It was a real light play and I think Solars are due for a temp bounce so I held...If it doesn't move tomorrow I'll take my loss

[New-born baby]

I bot SOLF today...I'm down .82 so far

As of 1:36 PM SOEN is up 3.89% and DSTI is up 13.13% ........It may be wise to get in and ride up now .......see post above

It may be just a short term bounce but a tradeable one for that matter.
