As of Dec 31 07 LDK was the second most bought stock by institutional investors for the week prior.

They have locked in materials for years, and have over a BILLION dollars worth of contracts. That's a lot of contracts for a 5 billion market cap company. There is also a rumor that they have figured out how to reprocess waste silicon, which would change a lot.
Zacks predicts their growth rate at 28% http://moneycentral.msn.com/investor/invsub/analyst/earnest.asp?Symbol=LDK and the average analyst rating is moderate buy, which is a little rare in the hot/volatile solar industry.
I have notes, but can't remember where from, that say that LDK supplies SOLF and CSIQ, which are both considered solid in the field.
