I imagine a conversation between a broker and his client goes like this:
Broker: You should buy STP
Client: Why?
B: They designs, develops, manufactures and market a variety of PV cells and modules. They also provides PV system integration services in China.
C: Wow, I know nothing about PV cells, I don't even know what it is, and I've never set foot in China, but the way you say it, it sounds just too good to be true.

AllGoodNames Rgon,

Actually, I think the broker would say that STP is one of the leading
manufacturers of solar chips, that sales have been almost doubling every year,
and that the stock is selling at less that half it's PE/G--so it's an alternative energy play that's a bargain as well. Currently it's the low-cost supplier in the category.

There's a reasonable question about the stock: there are several competitors who are developing less expensive "thin film" products which could undercut STP's position as low-cost supplier.

However, your comment didn't accurately describe either the upside or the downside for this stock, in my opinion.
