Alternative Energy Storage Is an Investment Tsunami

To User: The nearest thing I've found regarding an ETF for the energy storage sector is an ETF that shorts the entire energy sector. It's called: Energy Bear 3x Shares (ERY).

I wouldn't so much as visit the water closet if I were trading this ETF, as it's leverage three times the market movement.

All right! I will never use multiple hyphens here again!

(tell me where to put my money, period) Sheesh!

Something goofy happened happened between my proofing and hitting "Submit." It was supposed to be..."tell-me-where-to... period."

Thanks for the lead, John. But I have another goal in mind, one which I've invested well over 10,000 hours in. And once I narrow what to do with the market, I will return my focus there. Besides, perhaps we're about halfway or more through this idea of letting Uncle Sam tell-me-where-to-put-m... period. There are just not many opportunities left to buy a few thousand shares of a cheap government sponsored stock, knowing that the gain is likely to be 50 to 100 percent in only days.

This is one bazaar time! I reflect....wish I were more brazened!

Perhaps...an idea for you is to do a little research on what the percentage of float is being shorted right now on all these Energy Storage Sector stocks. If you did, you'd laugh at Ener1's.

To "User": Great question! I believe the answer right now is no. But the way new ETF's are coming out I'm sure there will be one, soon. If I learn of one I will make sure I make a post here.

Good article, John. I found your chart simplistic and informative.

I noticed you did a toe-dip into Exide, and hope you caught it to establish an average share price below three bucks. Even if the Dow goes down after New Years to 7000 or below, like many pundits are calling for, I'm still reasonably sure that owning Exide below three dollars is a very safe long term play.

Perhaps the hardest part for this investor to figure in this hyper volatile market, is when to establish a long position. Exide is the only stock I now own that I will hold on all the way through this global economic mess.

I think the most amazing thing I rarely see written about here at Seeking Alpha, or elsewhere, is that all you have to do right now is follow where Uncle Sam is using his bailout money. As you know, John, I started day trading a little of my investment money about when you started writing here, and am doing pretty well.

I will spend the next few days watching Ford, GM, and Citibank, tremulously, finger right near the sell button, as all my profit from the Wachovia Bank bailout are on the line.

I expect the leaders of Saft, Ener1, A123, JCI, and on and on in the auto suppliers and battery sector will be watching the congressional hearing Tuesday.

I can already hear the, "Phew!"
