First Trust NASDAQ Clean Edge US (ETF) (QCLN)

CAPS Rating:
*****

Exchange traded fund

Rating a stock in CAPS consists of three components:

Your call - Will this stock outperform or underperform the S&P 500? Successful picks are measured in terms of whether or not you were correct and by how many percentage points.

Your time frame - A guideline for other members to see whether your thinking is short or long-term. Time frame is also used to calculate the stock rating, but is not used in the scoring of your pick.

Your pitch - Here's your chance to offer more detailed thoughts, analysis, concerns, or the rationale behind your call. The pitch is optional and may be added later.

Each time you rate a stock, CAPS updates the community intelligence for the company, which may or may not change its CAPS rating. For more information, visit the Help tab at the top of the page.

Small cap clean energy ETF. Down today on decline of solar stocks. Solar and other clean energy is the only way to go and eventually people will wake up and quit destroying our planet.

Feels like just about any index will outperform the S&P right now. I don't really believe in "clean" or "alternative" energy, but I think there are enough people out there who do believe or want to believe so the price will be driven up. There is no replacement for oil. Not now and not for a REALLY long time. There is plenty of oil out there, so until that supply starts to dry up, oil will still rule the world. As for uranium, it takes a really long time/money to build nuclear plants. Both luxuries many countries can't afford. That's of course assuming the UN doesn't try to kill you with "tactical strikes".
