A Bright Future for American Superconductor

I am long APWR but am not a cheerleader for the stock and admit it has it's flaws however you are way off base and show a lack of Due diligence. They never claimed to have wind turbines up and running by November. They claimed to be receiving the parts from their partners in Europe Furhlander and Norwind in November. 1st Q 2009 is the target for rolling out the turbines. As far as the CFO yes that was a black market but it had nothing to do with finances being shady. He violated NASDAQ regulations by working for two companies at once.

I don't know what you expected from the stimulus PR do you want China to spell it out for you? They are investing huge in wind and solar and other cleantech. Pollution and energy independence not the price of oil alone are factors in this.

As far as your prediction under 4. Sure this market is wild and anything is possible but I would be very careful if you are short going into earnings just a few weeks out.

Lastly they have 0 debt and already thriving Distributed power generation business. Wind is just the icing on the cake.
