  • Solarfun Power: The Next Solar Giant? [View article]
    Which stock appears to have a solid "uptrend"? And is way above its year-ago price?

    Which stock appears to go nowhere? And is only slightly above its year-ago price?

    If you want something "cheap" and something appears to be a "bargain", SOLF is the way to go. (90% of market players will take this route.)

    If you want to go with something that is "strong" - sorry, it is very "expensive" and you just have to pay up to get it, CSIQ. (Less than 10% market players will take this route.)

  • Solarfun Power: The Next Solar Giant? [View article]
    Only jbde mentioned 3 stocks and one of those is CSIQ. While other comments discussed many other solars - but no CSIQ. To me, it means that CSIQ is still under the radar of lots of investors - that's music to my ears, CSIQ will have a lot more to go on the upside.

    Despite Dr. Jack Yetiv's lengthy discussion of CSIQ that uncovered this gem, and his numerous comments (on CSIQ) under other solar articles, CSIQ remains under the radar apparently - it is a good thing.

  • Temporary Market Bottom? 3 Solar Stocks That Look Like Bargains [View article]
    No other sector that its component companies have such a huge growth prospects in Revenue and Earning as the solar sector. The strongest stock in the solar sector is CSIQ, thus I choose to hang my hat on strength. The technical picture and the fundamental picture of CSIQ point to the same direction, no divergence here - I feel very comfortable to sit on it.

    asaf:

    You wrote and I quote: "up more than 300% since I first bought it". Good for you. I also did not know that you had written a research article that mentioned CSIQ too.

    I bought CSIQ after reading Dr. Yetiv's article, and I also bought TSL after reading his article as well.

    As it turned out that CSIQ is a real gem, while TSL is a lemon, so far at least. One has to look at the future, so I decided to get rid of the weak one (TSL) and then use that money to beef up the strong one (CSIQ).

    I might add that I have made far more money from CSIQ than the money I lost on TSL.

    Shawnette:

    CSIQ is your only solar stock, good for you.

    I sold my TSL today, and beefed up on CSIQ -- choosing to hang my hat on STRENGTH. I see CSIQ is a real gem which was uncovered by Dr. Yetiv.

    True, CSIQ was down big today (6-26-08), closed at 42.89 down 2.35 (or 5.19%). Over a one-year period, CSIQ still out-performs any other solar stock.

    After you have done below with the "BigChart"

    Time is set to: 1 year
    Frequency is set to: Daily
    SMA (simple moving average) is set to: 200

    *** You can change ticker to TSL or any other stock symbol.
    *** Except FSLR, no other solar stock could stay above its 200-day MAVG early this year when solars had a sharp sell-off.

    Notes of "user 182177" chart on CSIQ. (I just discovered this.)

    If your "BigChart" already has default settings, your chart may display MAVG other than 200-day MAVG. Now do the following:

    Time is set to: 1 year
    Frequency is set to: Daily
    SMA (simple moving average) is set to: 200

    Dr. Jack Yetiv's comment:

    "One day does not make a pattern, of course, but CSIQ gave up 10% today and TSL held up nicely."

    This comment made on 6-19-08 is interesting and true (but misleading, in a way, intended by the author): CSIQ was down 3.77. while TSL was up 0.38 on 6-19-08.
    ======================...

    A bit of history here: (Following appeared as a comment on another article "Further Thoughts on Trina Solar …")

    6-14-08 10:01 PM
    An interesting observation by Aquaculture:

    06-13-08 close.
    CSIQ: 39.00 - TSL: 38.99
    Its a neck-and-neck race Jack.
    Have a great weekend.
    ----------------------...

    But the closing prices on 6-19-08 were:

    CSIQ --- 47.23 --- down 3.77
    TSL ---- 39.36 --- up 0.38

    The closing price certainly gives a better picture as to which horse is pulling ahead, rather than the changes in just one day (CSIQ down 3.77, TSL up 0.38).
    ======================...

    Even with drastically different starting points, CSIQ was able to reach parity with TSL at 39 on 6-13-08 -- that was a tremendous display of strength on CSIQ's part already. Since then and until today, CSIQ continues to pull ahead and leaving TSL in the dust. CSIQ is the strongest stock in the strongest and the most promising sector - solar. It is my believe, CSIQ will continue to out-perform TSL for a long time to come.
    ======================...

    Final note: Dr. Jack Yetiv worked very hard and very diligently and for very long to uncover this gem (CSIQ), long before its meteoric rise to become the King of Performance and dethroned FSLR some weeks ago. CSIQ was Dr. Yetiv's top choice for a long time -- until TSL came along. Even so, he still considers that CSIQ is a better stock than any other stock in the solar sector, except TSL, of course.

    When a stock's fundamental picture and technical picture agrees with one another, the chance for investor's success will be very much improved. However, if they disagree - be very cautious.

    CSIQ has never been a weak stock. During the sharp sell-off of solars early this year, only two solars were able to stay above their 200-day MAVG -- CSIQ & FSLR.

  • Which Solar Stocks Will Continue To Shine? [View article]
    These are 6-month performance charts.
    ======================...

    The chart needs 6 months of data, thus SOL is not included.
    All other stocks in Dr. Yetiv's article are in the charts.

    Dr. Yetiv's favorite stock, CSIQ, is included in both charts, comparing to the rest. (CSIQ is a real gem.)

    As a new user, I had to sign up. When I came back, a guy already beat me to the punch.

    JASO had a 3 for 1 split on 2-7-2008.
    You did not take that into account.
