Solar is going to be the energy source of the future. As the technology improves Solar will become more and more popular and effective. FSLR is at the front of this young industry and will continue to grow along with the growth of the industry.

Solar is a young industry, but the naysayers are wrong. It is the energy of the future. Coal, gas, oil, nuclear, etc. all fall into the traps of pollution and resource limitations that will not keep up with global demand without energy diversification. The sun comes up every day, and the more we harness that, the stronger we become as a world. Harnessing the sun is a sustainable business model in its infancy.
My pick in this industry is First Solar. They're a market leader, currently, with strong global positions, that produces relatively cheap solar technology with a decent balance sheet for a solar company.

FSLR's strategy shift from ever-cheaper solar components, to full systems (plants like the one they just sold to Mid-American, a subsidiary of Berkshire Hathaway) is just the right vision -- put the continuing price drops on solar panels in FSLR's favor, rather than having it push the firm down. Pretty-close-to-perfect execution is needed, but the risks are fully priced into the mid-single-digit P/E, and then some!

Trading at 10 times earnings, still bringing in cash, balance sheet looks good, and solar is close to reaching grid parity. Also, I like their new focus on working with utilities

After being beaten down all year. Solar stands to flare up now that the industry has begun the shake out of players that lack expertiise. FSLR has an inside track with its lobbyists and its understanding of the market. The coming tariff on cheap Chinese imports will also help their cause

Recent interest by Buffet, increasing interest in alternative energy, this stock seems to be among the better choices. Excellent P/E. They are actually making money. I'm suspecting (only gut feeling) that we're near a bottom on this. I can't see it going much lower, given their relative strength.

I think upside is much hire than downside, specially with Buffett on the inside. It has more chances of doubling itself in a year than going down to half. Added to real time protfolio $1500 @ $45.35

Buffett putting money down, should give it some movement; although it does not change my beleief that solar in general has not yet reached the level of being profitable. Loses to much of its effeciency over time. Until someone corrects that, it will have profitability issues.
