Evergreen Solar has really not been doing much lately but I think low 7's was the bottom. I forsee it going up from here but maybe not a lot. I bought ESLR a couple of week's ago in the 7.40s. I can understand your frustration with ESLR but I think it might be ready for a bounce. I am not a technical trader but the stock has been shorted a lot (25% of float) so there is some upside with buyback or a shortsqueeze. The oil is amost at $50 and everything considered Solar stocks have help up pretty well. With the state of the Union address coming up I forsee President Bush bringing up Alternative Energy again which might benefit solar stocks in the short term. Bottomline is that we might have seen the bottom of ESLR and STP has had a great run the last few weeks and STP might be high risk less reward at this point. Who knows? I would wait to see if ESLR can somehow make it to the 9s and then sell it. I am planning to sell my holdings in 9's as well. ** I am not a financial advisor or a financial analyst so don't take this as a recommendation or an advice.

I first heard about Peak Oil a couple years ago at a solar power workshop, and began to believe we would be seeing big changes in the world of energy very soon. With this in mind, I invested in Evergreen Solar, and Suntech Power, back in March of ‘06. As you probably know, both stocks slumped after that, and only Suntech has come back and surpassed it’s price at the time of my investment. Right now, my losses on Evergreen still greatly outweigh my gains on Suntech. But things appear to be picking up (again) for solar. One question for you and other visitors: besides solar stocks, what are you investing in, and why? Also, to what degree is the price of oil the driving force behind solar stock prices? And finally, I’ve considered selling all of my Evergreen stock (at a loss of about 45%!), and re-investing that money in SunTech, and/or SunPower. Any thoughts on that move? Great site! Himanshu,
