    I feel the two best alt energy ETF's are GEX & PBW. You can hold both & gain quite excellent diversification. Here's why:

    GEX: Larger caps, Global (EU & Asia mostly) exposure, Older companies
    PBW: Smaller caps, More US focused co's, Younger companies

    So, GEX is a "safer" investment, while PBW will have more volatility. Combine the two & you get a little bit of cross over (mostly Chinese Solar co's) with better diversification.

    Hey Aquaculture - I believe you mean ground sourced heat pumps not geothermal. Speaking as a geologist, geothermal is hot water gysers etc. Ground sourced heat pumps use the stable temperature of the earth as a heat source (winter) or sink (summer) for a heat pump. Reply

    U.S. geothermal industry experiencing "dramatic growth surge" with expectations that total power production (currently 3 million homes) could triple over the next few years.
    GEA together with Ormat (NYSE:ORA) and Glitnir bank will host a workshop on july 23, 2008 in NYC to introduce geothermal energy to the NYC financial community.
    Among the present: Google.
    Google has announced that geothermal energy will be one of their focus areas for new investment.     Reply

    Actually, I take that back. PZD is diversified way beyond alternative energy so it's not a pure-play energy ETF. It's a good ETF, but it's not a good direct comparison to PBW. QCLN is a good comp to PBW, but it's no better, in fact, its worse. I'd have to stick with GEX as a better direct comp. Reply

    This ETF is a nice short-term investment, but the strategy for long-term sucks. There's no investment merit here and the risk-adjusted return is poor. If you have to pick so many companies in the same sector then you get too many losers. Seems like there's a lot of stocks here that have little to do with altnernative energy, are in bio-fuels from food crops, or just plain lousy companies. I'd have to agree, that GEX, or PZD, or even the new solar ETFs (for trading) blow this puppy out of the water. Reply

    Hey everyone

    I have tracked PBW the last six months and currently own a call spread on it. This ETF does exactly what I think the ETF philosophy should be: be balanced. PBD is also good for the global exposure. Long term this is a nice ETF to own.     Reply

    Gushan is in flaud. If you talk with any provider of used cooking oil, they would quote you more than 4000 RMB per ton. But GU claimed their cost is less than 2300 RMB per ton. Their Beijing factory started partial production since middle of April. But they claimed to start production in January. Reply

    GEX is another good alternative which is more global. Reply

    I am a fan of PBD primarily for the global exposure. Renewable energy companies from 20+ countries. Reply

    Nice chart. I've owned PBW for about a year. At one point it was up 18%, then down over 20%. I'm still down about 10% but I like it for the long term, and I expect a lot more volatility. Reply
