$CSIQ: Good fundamentals and daily trend signal...$CSIQ has a strong chart here, and good valuation in a very interesting growth industry. The daily chart has a signal here indicating a steep rally is starting, this might end up evolving into a larger timeframe trend, as the quarterly flashes a breakout over time.
I'm looking forward to holding if that is the case, after this daily signal reaches the target.
Cheers,
Ivan Labrie.
Solar
50% Confidence of $12 Break 2025, 75% Confidence of $10 BreakI have 14 shares of Vivint solar. This was a holding I initiated to do something with the remainder $100 in my trading account this past week, and to invest into solar/energy.
Looks like the company has suffered from shorting defamation in the past: www.thestreet.com
SimplyWallSt states that "Revenue is forecast to grow 13.6% per year." The returns this year have surpassed the US Electrical market and the US Market overall. In the last 5 years this company has had 20.5% Historical annual earnings growth, so I feel confident in the 13% forecast of revenue which will support the growth of this stock by 2025.
I'm confident it will break $10 by 2025.
Enphase to Find Resistance at $36 in Early 2025Although Enphase is an excellent inverter company for solar panels, and has treated its investors to a 420% year to date increase in value, I am feeling that CNN Business's analysis is too optimistic:
"The 10 analysts offering 12-month price forecasts for Enphase Energy Inc have a median target of 30.00, with a high estimate of 40.00 and a low estimate of 26.00. The median estimate represents a +21.85% increase from the last price of 24.62."
Solar panel companies have a tremendous amount of competition and also failure rate when we look at them historically. Due to the consistent innovation and subsequent outdating of previous technology, it is possible that a company like Enphase could be completely off the trading market within a decade. Yes, it could even happen in the next 12 months. I would not invest into this company if I wanted to sell within 6-12 months.
Do I think this stock is going to go under in the next 12 months? No, but I also don't think that it could hit a median of $30 within the next year.
Let the technology, market, and consumers play it out for the next 5 years and we will see this stock increase from $24.62 to over $35.
I have 70% confidence in this analysis. I am holding Enphase and PLUG to diversify into the energy sector.
JKS - bright future for solar ahead?With ongoing worldwide trends towards clean energy, there is good potential for solar sector to shine in the years ahead.
After rather significant selloff recently some ideas are trying to put a bottom finally, and NYSE:JKS is one of them.
Good earnings released today and breakout through neckline of inverse H&S provide initial signs of reversal.
I entered position on breakout today, and plan to hold as one of core holdings for next year, with some short-term trading in and out.
Long SPWRYou don't have to be a tree hugger to get this... And, why we need "Earth Day" when every day is Earth Day is beyond my ken. OK, enough about me.
This pattern (and global warming - dang! Sorry.) suggests it might be time to buy SPWR.
If you are in California, affected by the fires in any way, my heart goes out to you.

Trump the Great! (Or Not)Trump has been in Office for 921 days. He campaigned on bringing back old industries like steel and of course 'clean' coal. He lived up to his promises of lifting and removing thousands of environmental regulations and laws. So what are the results?

Lessons to be taken. 1. Regulations can help keep smaller players out of your industry, thus reducing competition - Hence 'drill baby drill' not always a good thing.
2. No one believes or want our 'clean' coal. 3. The masses are smarter than the select elite few who deny climate change and are investing in solar.
SUNRUN INC - NASDAQ: $RUN Ready To Run Again?After going topside nearly two weeks ago on solid volume, shares of SUNRUN INC - NASDAQ:RUN find themselves consolidating the recent thrust on lower volume and in a fine manner as we can observe from the Daily chart above.
In addition, the stock presently finds itself perched above all of its important moving averages 20/50/200 DMA's and in fine technical shape.
Furthermore, when we extend out to both the Weekly and Monthly time-frames, we can also see that RUN displays excellent technical characteristics. Thus, we have a stock that remains in favorable shape across multiple time-frames, which is certainly a healthy picture from a technical viewpoint.
Moving forward, both investors/traders may want to continue to monitor the action closely for if and when RUN should be capable of taking-out the $19.30 level, such development would likely trigger its next meaningful run/advance into all-time highs and Blue Sky's.
Kill the CancerExxon conned and scammed the public of early action on climate change, a genius business move, but a sold soul. waiting until september to short the company to $1 unless they announce a total 180 to entirely renewable tech which would be a lol. Invest and bet on the future you envision or believe to see. Fk exxon.
