Suntech, SunPower, MEMC and First Solar: Four Solar Stocks Worth Investigating

Hey Guys,

The reason I don't include Q-Cells and REC is because they are not listed here in the US.

Also, you have to decide on your entry point for all of these stocks but I think during these tough times you have to stick with quality if you are an investor. If you are a trader then go on and trade those other Chinese Solar stocks.

Also, I would love to invest in some of these Euro Solar and Wind companies but they are not listed here in the US. There is really no pure play wind company listed in the US and that is a shame.
