Last Thursday the Dow and the S&P got all the way back to their 200-day lines. Friday they went back down. The Naz is still above the 200's. Seems to say we're headed back down. But I'm not predicting anything.
I reported from the Wall St Journal last week that the Coast Guard said the oil leak was plugged. Obviously they had only meant it was drilling mud coming out, not oil. Until that failed. Question is, is any national leader going to call for a "moon shot" program to get EV's and their needed clean electrical generation and non food-based biofuels going to replace oil?
World solar PV demand to grow 58% in '10. US wind est. installs '10 is 6.3-7MW. '09 was 9.8MW.
India Q1 GDP up 8.6%.
GE at last getting US wind turbine contracts. Latest for Lake Erie outside Cleveland. Whom here remembers the Cuyahoga River on fire? Pretty much started Earth Day. And a day after this year's Earth Day we got the Gulf oil spill. The history of environmental consciousness could be a book by now.
Gov of Maine wants to build 5 gigs of tidal power. THAT's a go!
Is it ever unbelievable department: BP just hired former head of public affairs at DOE for PR. I'm starting to think BP will declare bankruptcy. And just walk away from that dam hole. No. I guess that 's really too despairacle. Despairacle: A despairable debacle.. Use in sentence. I just did. Could BP be trying to keep oil prices up by extending this oil spill? That would be worse than despairacle. That would be evil. Evil: don't even want to think about it. Use in sentence: Did again.
Reports that Duke Energy - Doo-kee - is putting squeeze on solar in SEast.
And that's Memorial Day 2010 as I found it. Remember anyone you know who ever served. And honor their service.

EVCA up 21. BFRE up 14. ECOS up 13. DSTI up 13. RVBF up 14. And others. No big downs. Biggest downs are AMSC, BWEN, AEHI.
It's just stupid the market is even open. Everybody's off to the mountains or shores. Drives one to drink who cannot vacation. O but, you never know what evil lurks in the last hour.
And now, as I write, FDEI is down 19 I would guess on one little sale.
And Gulf nuze: BP fired the junk shot overnight. And obviously the Coast Guard spoke too early yesterday that it was plugged. But we all do hope. Except the oil lovers who want $200 oil or better.

Unfortunate. But this company has been bleeding over $10M a quarter the last year and much more for years and years. They have some business of fuel cells for forklifts. APWR up 10. ULBI up 8. BYDDF up 7. I thought they'd do better. But that joint venture news didn't seem to get picked up by other newswires. I think I saw it on WSJ or Bloomberg.
AWNE down 25. HLXW down 22 again. EVCA down 24. GBRC back down 14 after yesterday's up. Likewise, VCTZF back down 20 and PSRU back down 9.

BYDDF. Warren Buffett's Chinese battery-EV maker has formed a joint venture with Daimler to make and sell EV's in China. The stock is at it's year low. Catch it early. Good ruck.
Looks like we have a big move up at the open. So much for my prediction of it going lower today. They say it's because of China backing Europe up. I don't know, I still think there's some more downside to come.

COMV's CEO sees profit in 2013. G, how assuring. At least he's honest. Yes, these are trying times. But when do CEO's wake up. Investors need profits. Or walk.
AONE bounced up 11. Bottom processing. BWEN up 4 after hours. CABN was up 17. Q1 reported. Still not 1 dollar in revs. Can you love this market? ECOS was up 17. News. First of all, they are a "network of environmentally-focused technology companies that utilize nanotechnology to develop alternative energy solutions". Today they announced a joint venture in the Netherlands to produce the lithium X battery. This definitely sounds like a company to watch.
ECTY went down 5. They have the plug-in units and $100M from the US gov for the Nissan Leaf and Nissan announced today or yesterday that their entire Leaf production scheduled has been sold. 19,000 or some. Come on. Build the dam things. O yea, Nissan just got a $1.4B US loan to build a lith-ion battery plant in Tennessee for the Leaf and probably other models and makers. The $1.4B is part of the $25B for advanced vehicles passed by Congress in '07. '07. Did I say '07.
GBRC up 17. Broke over their 50-days. Microwave tech to recover fossil fuels from just about anything including oil shale and oil sands. But. Last reported Sept '09 very little revs.
HOKU reported in after close. Bad. Down 10 after.
Morgan Joseph reits its buy on CREE with $100 target. I say buy LSCG.

CBWP down 27. Fickle finger of daily market fate. WNDT down 15. Up and down they go.

EVCA just jumped. Up 33. NEWN up 6 now.
EVCA up 52. It's really hard to see all the bulls coming. Read their report. So they buy and sell new and used EVs and hybrids?
Now up 73. What the hell? O yea, technicals before fundamentals. Well, start funding mentals.
Now up 88. Either they have news and doing insider trading or buyers have gone insane. Or. Wall St. moves whom they want to move when they want to move them and we're just blades of grass under their feet. At best. And I guess that's just the world we have to live in. Until we wake up and grow up and step up.
Sorry. Can't be an emotional investor. Yea right.

Might as well close early. People still haven't wakened up to clean energy. It's just like any other market still today to Wall Steet, Main Street and Home Street. HLXW came back to 28. LMCO up 21. Can't buy into the Tesla-Toyota deal of course. Well, I don't recommend Toyota anymore, though we bought one in 1970 because of low emissions (tiny motor).
EVCA (now bulletin board) down 31. WNDT down 15. So much for wind theme. WWEI (wind) down 29. Going to hell apparently. And my fave, BSRC, down 13. Well sure, they went up so much so fast on what? Production started and sales of a bio product (castor beans) to replace a fossil product for solar panels. O boo. Kick them bad.

Low volume. And back to flat Dow. Probably the whole week will be the same going into Memorial Day. Just like the summer market. Normally. But, of course, these are not normal times. At least no more major bad news so far, though we are keeping nutcase watch on N Korea.
So. How be the cleans. HLXW - Helix Wind - now up 49. Still no why. LMCO up 20. LSCG up 15. They won't be going down. Well, unless the market implodes. GCHT up 15. New Chinese wind comp today reported $11M rev and the Chinese standard 10% profit. Coming off a bottom dip. Seems a wind theme today, A? Duke even signed up for 300 more MW. NEWN up 7, bouncing off its 200-days.
BSRC down 7. ECNG down 6. ECTY down 6. RSOL down 6, dipping under 50-days. And BFRE down 12. Getting cheapy. Cellulosic eth.
And by the time I finish, the Dow is back down 26.
Breaking news - I reported on Friday that MKTY was good to buy at present level. But I just red that MTI Micro (fuel cell subsid) is in cash crunch. Well, that's not any news for any fuel cell company. But it could be bad news to buy MKTY now.
So. How be the cleans. HLXW - Helix Wind - now up 49. Still no why. LMCO up 20. LSCG up 15. They won't be going down. Well, unless the market implodes. GCHT up 15. New Chinese wind comp today reported $11M rev and the Chinese standard 10% profit. Coming off a bottom dip. Seems a wind theme today, A? Duke even signed up for 300 more MW. NEWN up 7, bouncing off its 200-days.
BSRC down 7. ECNG down 6. ECTY down 6. RSOL down 6, dipping under 50-days. And BFRE down 12. Getting cheapy. Cellulosic eth.

Mixed indeces. Lot of confused folks out there maybe. BSRC down 11. VLNC down 5. FDEI down 5. HLXW up 23. No news. Guess the sellers are gone for now. Wind power for single homes and commercial/industry. But sold only 1 unit in Q1. LMCO up 17. Announced unveiling of their hot EV in September. RVBF up 33. Cellulosic eth. No news. Coming up off bottom. OOGI up 10. And AEHI up 11. Breaking through their 10-day lines (the "50's" and "200's" on a ten-day chart).

Credit Suisse lowered price targets Friday on SPWRA, FSLR and JASO (plus some NYSE solars). A little behind the curve, I'd say. These 3 are way down from latest highs and are probably on or near their bottoms. Yes, Germany feed-in tariffs are cut back in July and Europe currency hits margins already coming down from over supply and competition. But solar industry overall to grow 40% more this year and it won't stop there. Also, some are predicting mergers and acquisitions within the industry. FSLR has cost advantage and size still, though a couple privately-held comps will eat into it on price competiveness. The report left out SOLF, which may be the most attractive upside short-term. CSIQ's quarterly comes out soon and though they will report a profit v loss last year it may not make analysts' precall of 19 cents/sh.

OOGI. Odyssey Oil & Energy. Up 22% yesterday. I said I didn't have a clue. Actually, they have a pilot plant demonstrating their tech of algae production with carbon capture. One of the best techs going forward I think. Algae for biofuel grown faster with the CO2. Carbon taken out, oxygen put in air. Got to love that. S. Africa comp. No revs yet but next step is commercial plant. One to watch.
Also had no clue on GAEC, Down 33%. Gulf Alternative Energy Corp. One of the most opaque comps in the list. They say they're "focused" on developing and constructing cellulosic ethanol technologies. Only numbers found are $30K cash , $300K debt and 2M shares. No news ever. I probably won't ever mention them again until they show up with something. Cellulosic is good. But these guys don't look like the leaders.
SLMU. Salamon Group. Down 23% I reported. They apparently are developing a wireless "electrical power generator". Sounds Tesla-esque. Their plan is to buy a Vegas casino to fund their research and development. It gets better. They had $25 cash and assets as of March 31.
Then I mentioned GAZU down 22%. Gazoo Energy Group. Development stage to "develop green energy techs". They might be making money soon though. They're involved with California's PACE energy program that starts June 2 with $95M. GAZU will at least be doing energy auditing for Pacific Housing Finance Agency. The entire program is several billion bucks funded with muni bonds.
And one more yesterday: PMSV down 14%. Power Save Energy. They offer "energy-saving devices" for residential, commercial and industrial customers. They're in California. So they also might make money from the PACE program. They also retail PV and wind products. They have revs, though off last Q, and nominal losses. Rev of $4.7M '09. Book value of 5 cents, according to Yahoo. Kind of interesting here. They install capacitors to capture lost energy from inductive motors in the house or facility.

Well, reassurance today. So far. The 3rd Fridays sometimes have wild afternoons though. Not sure if this a triple witcher or not. Of indeces, Naz is the only one back above 200-day lines. But a nice recovery so far. Possibly a good development with the Gulf current and the oil getting to the Keys' coral reefs or Cuba or Bahamas or wherever. But ten days from hurricane season. Plug the dam well now BP or the USA will do it for you. That's what king robear would say today. Well, that's my poobah. Huzzuh.
LSCG up 21. LEDs man. SOLF up a strong 11. GCEH, a symbol from the recent past, up 37. Jatropha in Mexico for biodiesel. UBRG, of the same time frame as GCEH, up 11. Natgas and clean E. And, importantly, big positive income and profit change. ASTI up 4 off a nice little W (double bottom). They're fairly close to revs if I remember correctly. Thin film solar. FDEI up 18, but low volume. CSIQ up 4 has fallen off. Maybe not out of their weeds yet. EVCA up 50. Someone's playing it huh. CSGH up 11. Another China batt maker. Hit hard lately along with other China comps. APWR and BWEN up 6. EMKR up 5.
SPWRA down 2. May see $10 before all the selling is flushed. Especially if market's going down another 10%. And who says it couldn't go down more? Or back up from here? Though the more it goes down the more we will see the W bottom recovery out of the reckless playing with depression our financial giants and government (with deregulation) gave us. O yea, stocks. BSRC down 8. May be done with its comebackdown. The bio backsheets for solar cells/panels. Production started. Good volume. AEHI down 7. Also may be ready for more gains depending on the market as does everything. The nuke guys. China and Idaho plants. AKNS down 3. VLNC down 2. Recent news babies.

S&P is busted, Dow has found its 200-days and under now. Only Naz is still above its 200's. Seems too soon to pick up bargains. BSRC down 19. LSCG up another 15 though. VLNC up 1 on contract news. APWR down another 8. CSIQ down 6 more.
Will there be good news to turn this around? Doubt it. April leading indicators came in down .01%. Again, a 20% correction from the recent highs gives a Dow of about 9k. Maybe another month to get there. Then the elections start to gear up, so more fire added to the fire. But also by then we may have the financial reform bill passed and maybe even the cap and trade energy bill which would give carbon a price. Which would bring investors back to clean energy because coal then would be as much as wind and closer to solar. Anyway, looks so far like a good day in cash. Obviously, I've never shorted a stock.
NPWZ down 13, back at its low. LSCG up only 5 now. NEWN down 8, sitting on its 200-days. AEHI down 9.

Singapore Q1 GDP up 16%. Somebody's doing well. Oil back over $70. China cracks down on stimulus graft. Hm. What's US doing? Got nowhere on bank reg bill today in Congress. More mortgage deliquencies. About 8% of homeowners close to or in foreclosure. Lot o pain.
SOLR reported FY and Q and was up 5 after hours. They beat on revs and margins and lifted guide on next year net. Revs could double next 2-5 yrs. Backlog down 23% from last yr. APWR (down another 5) another turnaround candidate. BWEN (down 4) one more. FDEI ended up back at $.016. Technicals (prices) are usually evident before fundamentals it's said. This could be double bottom for them. Volume's back.
Well, I guess I do see LSCG now. They have an LED bulb to replace 60W incandescents in the low $30 range. That's half of Phillips' bulb. LSCG's uses 9W and lasts 23 years. How do they know 23 years? Anyway, they have another LED line that retails under $20. Paybacks in under 2 years. Over 400M 60W bulbs sold in US every year. You won't see their bulbs at the Family Dollar though. They'll be at lighting distributors or can be bought directly from the company by Q3 this year. Now all they have to do is learn how to make a profit.
I red EVCA's Q report and it doesn't look that good to me. But, as is said, technicals precede fundamentals.
When will somebody plug that dam oil pipe? This is unbelievable. Oil in the marshes now. Everything dies. BP's buying some of Kevin Costner's water/oil vacuums that separates the two. O, but a month in. Heads should roll.
Well, happier trails pards, pardettes.

EIA also projects wind at 5% of El gen in '12, all clean E at 14% "thanks be to Obama stimulus". Then check Doosche Banco: oil to hit $175/b by '16. You want the truth or the sugar wheat?

I used to get depressed when I would see this kind of wealth lost and stupidity bred. But now I know the market is the real world. And what "corrections" do is test commitment, devotion, knowledge, bank accounts, honesty, focus, craziness, guts and wisdom, among everything else. So I spotted y'all a couple percents more on my prediction earlier that certain solars have been beaten up enough. Enough is enough as we say. And here we have EVCA back 40. We have BSRC up another 30. LSCG another 5. As FDEI is also holding.
Other than those mentioned solars, we have AEHI down 14. AFPW down 12. NTCXF down 10. UBRG down 14. APWR, BWEN each down 6 if you like wind. AKNS down 5. INKN down 18. NPWZ down 6. NEWN down 5. And ECNG down 3. Oops, FDEI just lost 10. And here's craziness right here: AEHI down 20. And if their news is honest and true, a 1GW nuke brings in at least $8B (though we're talking China labor), and even if AEHI cut is 10% go figure. And wasn't there news of the Idaho plant? Finally, they're back on their 200-d's. Smack back.
O yah, forgot. We're at peak ocean fish. And then let's add who knows how many thousands of barrels of oil a day to the Gulf of Mexico. Happy hunting.
I am in awe of these folks bringing clean energy to our table of cornucopia.
I used to get depressed when I would see this kind of wealth lost and stupidity bred. But now I know the market is the real world. And what "corrections" do is test commitment, devotion, knowledge, bank accounts, honesty, focus, craziness, guts and wisdom, among everything else. So I spotted y'all a couple percents more on my prediction earlier that certain solars have been beaten up enough. Enough is enough as we say. And here we have EVCA back 40. We have BSRC up another 30. LSCG another 5. As FDEI is also holding.
Other than those mentioned solars, we have AEHI down 14. AFPW down 12. NTCXF down 10. UBRG down 14. APWR, BWEN each down 6 if you like wind. AKNS down 5. INKN down 18. NPWZ down 6. NEWN down 5. And ECNG down 3. Oops, FDEI just lost 10. And here's craziness right here: AEHI down 20. And if their news is honest and true, a 1GW nuke brings in at least $8B (though we're talking China labor), and even if AEHI cut is 10% go figure. And wasn't there news of the Idaho plant? Finally, they're back on their 200-d's. Smack back.

I truly feel it's time to buy the solars. CSIQ (down 7), SPWRA (down 6), SOLF (down 11), maybe even FSLR (down 2). The S&P index at the moment has busted its 200-day, but I believe it will end up above it by day end (1,110).
INKN down 26. Where to buy it I don't know yet. NTCXF down 19. Now under its 50-d's. EVCA shot back, up 20. BSRC up 13 more. FDEI up another 5. VLNC up 4.

BSRC up 90. I told ye early. Tho I didn't expect that much either, to be honest. AFPW up 48. They had news of Navy contract on the 12th. AEHI ended up 19. LSCG also 19. AKNS ended up 9.
EVCA down 20. Wild swings. MKTY down 19. Bonked off its 50-d's again. NPWZ down 11. SLTZ too. SPWRA down another 4. Amazes me. AMSC down 5 on Citi downgrade. Gotta love that. Taxpayers had to bail out Citi and now Citi doesn't like superconduction. CSIQ down another 3 and 2 more afterhours.
And lo, Germany banned naked shorts. And "they" say that dropped the Euro. Which apparently is dropping all other markets. Oil under $69. Yea, I'd say we're in correction.

Apparently, I was wrong to say the Iran-Turkey-Brazil deal was good. USA-Russia-China and others say no it was not today. Aren't we all just trying to get along and be able to bring home some beans by the end of the day?
There are so many companies now. Green companies. And investors don't have any money left since the debacle of '08. JUHL, for instance, reiterated their 1Q - up 300% revs and such - and they're still down even with all the private ownership. And it seems Wall St loves betting against everybody. No wonder they almost pulled us into a second depression. And our government. Our government. Perhaps I digress.
Porky is going to put solar into Yosemite at $8/W. Who gets the contract not mentioned. Sorry. Don't mean to be objectionable. It's only half a Mw. Good for 100 homes with LED's and Energy Star appliances. But we can't afford pork any mork. Too bad. Way too bad for grandkids who will never know what pork was like.
Man, ever feel like a writer on the storm? And here we are all cash thinking about whom to buy.
And you know what? Chicken butt. France may be out of uranium on their own soil. And, as we all know, they are 80% nuke power.

Most of the greens today make sense. BSLR up 40 here. New production started. Good product. EVCA up 20. Though their news was about "intensive" marketing and PR. About back to where they were before Friday debacle. AEHI up 29. Nuke upstart. Now China connect. Desalination plus El up to 1GW nuke plant. Real deal. And AKNS now up 12 on their Westinghouse stamp of approval. If only they can now prove they can make money. ZOLT up another 6. LSCG up 18, but Q1 wasn't impressive. And FDEI crawling back. Herd back from company that they're working hard on financial viz and then valuations should come back. Already back to .018 from .015. NWPZ and NEWN up 5.
BYDDF - can you believe Buffett actually bought into a Pink stock - dipped under it's last 200-d line yesterday and still seems to be dealing with that. PSRU down another 7. ALTI in doldrums. And one of the jokers - PWAZ - down 50. INKN down 10.

USA does the fighting and dying and spending on that but China Offshore and Turkey state oil get the latest Iraqi oil field. I guess that's democracy.

AMSC with new multi-year $450M order from China wind company.
Also, I will never go to a BP station again and predict soon enough we will not see BP signs at stations anymore.

Our Commerce Sec in China with 24 US clean energy company delegates. Projections that China runs out of their oil and NG resources in 20 years. Past 6 mo China had the largest increase in human-made GHG's in any country in history. The Sec is a Chinese-American. FSLR went. Not all mentioned. And a big prob is getting el from West to East. That tells me CPTC and AMSC. Or there's some new tech to transmit underground at large DC volts.
And oil under $72. Odd? But good. Remember that $80 fig for depressionary.
NJ ran out of solar rebates in 1 day bcuz the gov shifted $158M from the fund to help close $11B state budget gap. And we call them leaders.

I'd say get in as soon as you can, but if it's already up over 10% you might wait, of course. It's an OB, so technically you can't buy it until 9:15, and then it's a challenge to put the right price in. Happy hunting.
ULBI (lith-ion, other batt and el equip) got a $21M order to add to their $177M projected revs this year. Their stock's been bottom sitting most of a year.

N Korea has figured out nuke fusion. No demeaning meant, but we had that in the 70's. But if they have, they now have the H bomb. Ooo. Even more terror. Next we hear they may astound the world with cold fusion.
The Senate introduced the new energy bill. All i see is it puts a price on carbon. Cap and trade. Has that worked well, really? What about a direct tax on carbon. Or feed-in tariffs. I guess that will be the debate. No big spending for clean energy in it. And the fossilists are reportedly stoking the pot with $50M. Heck, that's just from their front pockets.

AEHI up another 30. Not a one-day wonder. How valuable a county decision can be. Wonder if those commissioners bought some stock the day before. NPWZ up that 10 again. And PSRU. ECNG up 2. My number one buy. AMSC up 5 on their good quarterly. INKND dropped the D today, and DSTI added a D, down 7. Reverse splits usually take a stock down. EVCA down 20. And FDEI down another 11. If I didn't know better, I'd say it might be a hostile takeover. Now down to their 200-days area.

3P+
AEHI at 95%. WNDT down 15%. XSNX down 13%. Probably going back up to kneehigh of top on indices to double top before we go back to the abyss. But. Maybe we don't get that far back. Or. Maybe we continue going up.
MIDDAY
We have a runaway. AEHI up 380%. I didn't realize it was that big of deal when the county approved their nuke in Idaho. My blind. Now 538%.
And now PSRU is jumping. Up 16% in a flash. AEHI now 185%. CSOL up 17%. HOKU another 7%. FSYS up 7%. Despite that downgrade and push down to $25, can you really hold down a great Q. ZOLT got a downgrade but up 1% more. SOLR up 4% on upgrade. Course, it depends WHO upgrades or downgrades. AETI down 20% on a lousy quarter. It won't go lower. They're getting into wind. AMSC up 5%. Just cuz. LMCO down 14%. Probably going to $1.25 area. BFRE will turn around. Just saying.

ECNG released quarterly yesterday after close with great numbers and excellent prog. They're up 23%, close to all-time high. 1-year projected price makes this a ten-bagger to come.
NENE, up 9%, and ETLE, up 1%, have passed through their 50-days and one of their 200-days.
ASTI opened up a production line. Up 4%. SOLF predicting a strong 2H, up 2%.
NEAH up another 10%. SPWRA and AONE down 6%. CREE up 7% on new line.

RGUS up 50%. Somehow I will come to remember that when these guys go down big they come back big. SESI up 31% again. This one's more it's spread than ups and downs until they have a revenue turnaround. GAZU 42%. Again, I looked again at their profile and news and I still don't get what they do. But I was right. They don't make any money. ZOLT I understand. Up 14%. ABAT up 7%. AEHI 16%. AFPW up 12%. AXTG 15%. BWEN 9%. Wind infrastructure on a comeback. ETLE seems slowly on a steady up with Nissan Leaf business. HOKU up 8%. Solar in Hawaii. I don't know, does that make any sense? MMGW up 12%. A very thin stock but possibly bottomed out. NPWZ up 18%. Back off a double bottom. Fuel cells. CBWP down 30%. One more of the new little wind up and downers. CCTC down 10%. Sure, clean coal. CABN down 13%. O no not more clean coal. Well, that's the look see.
3P
Senate unanimous vote - unanimous - for GAO to audit the Fed from 2007. 4 senators not voting. And we're going back down. It's almost hilarious. Ha ha.
MIDDAY
New circuit breaker takes some fun away from shorters I think. Maybe why we're going up again. GAZU up 42%. I still don't understand what they do. They sure aren't making money. ZOLT up 12%. Lousy quarter report but great looking ahead. They supply carbon compoz to Vestas and expanding into new autos. AXTG up 15%. While PSRU sits. WWPW up 20%. Somebody woke up to their Ontario biz. JASO down 3% now. Maybe the pressure on solar when Germany cuts feed-in tariffs this summer plus possible revaluation of Chinese currency. It's a hard one to predict. QTMM and NTCXF down 5%. When to expect revs I guess the question. And can someone explain to me why FDEI is going down? A more efficient solar tech (ceramic waveguides) and over $.5B in contracts, some already started on, in South Africa, India, Greece. Downside, though, is their current financial viz. But they are fixing that. O yea, CBWP down 19%. Getting their act together.

SPILL
Sad sad news the blockhouse didn't work. Now they want to throw golf balls and tire shreds at it. And the entire fishing community of the North Gulf is devastated. Let alone the seashores and wildlife and estuaries. And the catastrophe to come if the Gulf current catches it. And the really sad story is we don't even need oil. If we would just wake up.
O Boys Another Trillion To Spend
Well, clean energy wize, the euro bailout will help our solar stocks some. Hence, yavohl, they are up. Though, surprisingly enough, one with a Greece contract - FDEI - is down. Of course. What's the come and the go. Do we have more confidence now? Did Goldman make enough on the deal? Even the volcano calmed down again. Where's Goldman making money there? ENSL up 41% the biggest solar gainer. Maybe they have news coming or something. Beats me. SESI (Swiss solar) up 25%. OK, that makes some sense.
