Time, Talent, Treasurer. They have a product timed to the market. They have the talent to produce a superior product, and the have the money to make it work. This is a real winner unless somebody invents a much better product. I have heard that the sun drops as much energy on the earth in 24 hours as we have mined, pumped and burner since the beginning of time. Let's capture it.

I agree (somewhat). But don't confuse the great outlook for solar power and the quality of the solar companies with the price that their stock is selling for. On 7/27/07 SPWR had a PE of 174. SInce March SPWR has had a price growth rate of 3.2% per week. Do you really think that is sustainable?? Investing short term might make you some money if you're agile, but I wouldn't put my money into a solar company for the long term ... not now at least. I think we will see solar PE's come down into the 50's in the not too distant future. If I'm correct, THEN we can talk about buying.
