  • The Obama administration's decision on the Keystone oil pipeline (TRP) will not be made until at least June, a U.S. official tells Reuters, which would delay the project for months and frustrate backers of Canada's oil sands. "It's not weeks until the final decision," according to the source. "It's months." [View news story]
    the oil that will flow through the pipeline will do nothing for the supply in the US. It will be shipped out through the Gulf immediately. Its only a ploy to keep the global price of oil sky high. This whole thing is only about big oil money. That's it. It has nothing to do with what is in American's best interests for low cost energy.

    wow these comments are so off base. The keystone pipeline will only keep the price of oil high and screw the average consumer. You guy need to open your eyes and see the big picture.

  • CVD Equipment: Facing A Demand Slowdown [View article]
    Michael, any insight on this now? Its seems like you called this one perfectly back in May 2012, much to the dismay of many commenters. But now the stock has rised 50% from its lows. Have they broken through and it this the turnaround?

  • Nokia (NOK) and a slew of academic/business partners have received a 10-year, €1B ($1.36B) EU grant to research and commercialize graphene, an ultra-thin structure said to have "a breaking strength 300 times greater than steel," and which could potentially have a variety of electronics applications. A Nokia R&D exec compares graphene's importance to that of silicon and cheap iron. Hyperbole? We should have a better idea within a decade. [View news story]
    I feel like 3d printers could somehow solve the problem. Those things can do anything!

  • First Solar Versus The Solar Industry [View article]
    my point is that China solar is going to outperform US solar going forward because their government is behind it. and not to mention that FSLR's thin-flim can't compete with poly anymore because the price of poly has come down so much.

  • First Solar Versus The Solar Industry [View article]
    since Dec 12th when China announced the 2 billion in subsudies and committed to let some companies fail, TSL, YGE, LDK, JASO, and CSIQ are all up over 60%. FSLR is up 1% during this same period.

    This the best I could find....

    FuelCell Energy Off To A Strong Start

    Shares of FuelCell Energy (FCEL) jumped by five percent on Tuesday and have risen by over 15 percent already on the year. No significant news was released in conjunction with the five percent, high-volumed spike, although a company insider was noted to have made a modest share purchase. The quick start this year could be a precursor for what's to come, as the company announced numerous solid developments last year that have it positioned for success and growth in 2013. The most significant of the most recent developments may have been the news that FuelCell -- in collaboration with Dominion Resources (D) -- would develop the largest fuel cell power project in North America. This deal, according to Bloomberg reporting, increased the company's backlog of orders to over $125 million and provided a testament to FCEL's ability to supply power independent of the national or regional grids -- a big deal in the aftermath of Hurricane Sandy. Also in 2012, FuelCell secured a deal with South Korea's POSCO Energy, a deal that brought with it $30 million of up-front financing and laid the groundwork for future -- and potentially more lucrative -- collaborative efforts.

    With a quick start to the year underway, FCEL will be a hot story to watch moving forward. Add in a fairly significant amount of short interest, and things could get exciting quick, should those shorts look to cover as developments continue to unfold on a positive note. What has held this company back thus far is the slow trek towards profitability, but as investors become convinced that profitability is on the horizon, volume may start to trickle in at a higher rate and the share price could follow. Until profitability is met, however, the threat of a stock offering does exist -- one such deal was struck last year around the time of the Posco announcement -- but the company has also demonstrated its ability to raise funds through partnerships and other collaborative efforts.

    FCEL and PLUG have recently moved higher. Anyone know if there's a catalyst that's driving this?

  • Nokia Upgrades Will Create More Upside [View article]
    it seems to me like the upside for Nokia hasn't even begun yet. They have a strong brand, strong patents, a great product with the Lumina, great pricing, and an ideal market to sell (China and India). Everything is lined up for Nokia to go much higher.

  • Why Perceptron Could Be The Next 3D Tech Stock To Triple [View article]
    This stock turned up on my one of my screens last night. I had been looking for another way to play the 3D space beside DDD, SYSS, and ONVO and thought this stock looked very interesting because of its 3D involvement. I'm still unsure how exactly their new technology relates to 3D printing though.
