Wind Stocks Company Profile for Clean Wind Energy Tower, Inc. (OTCBB: CWET)
Point Roberts, WA –February 8, 2011 - Investorideas.com, a leader in cleantech stock research announces the investor profile for wind company, Clean Wind Energy Tower, Inc (OTCBB: CWET) is now available for interested green investors.
About Clean Wind Energy, Inc. (http://www.cleanwindenergytower.com)
Clean Wind Energy, Inc. a wholly owned subsidiary of Clean Wind Energy Tower, Inc, is designing and preparing to develop, and construct large “Downdraft Towers” that use benevolent, non-toxic natural elements to generate electricity and clean water economically by integrating and synthesizing numerous proven as well as emerging technologies. In addition to constructing Downdraft Towers in the United States and abroad, the Company intends to establish partnerships at home and abroad to propagate these systems and meet increasing global demand for clean water and electricity.
Clean Wind has assembled an experienced team of experienced business professionals, engineers and scientists with access to the breakthrough energy research upon which this technology is founded and the proven ability to bring the idea to market. Clean Wind has filed several patents that the Company believes will further enhance this potentially revolutionary technology.
Dual Renewable Energy Technology
The Downdraft Tower is a hollow cylinder with a water spray system at the top. Pumps deliver water to the top of the Downdraft Tower to spray a fine mist across the entire opening. The water evaporates and cools the hot dry air at the top. The cooled air is more dense and heavier than the outside warmer air and falls through the cylinder at speeds up to 50 mph, driving the turbines located at the base of the structure. The turbines are attached to generators to produce electricity. The exterior of the Downdraft Tower is constructed with vertical “wind vanes” that run the entire length of the structure. The Downdraft Tower's vanes capture the prevailing wind and channel it through a separate system of tunnels to turn turbines attached to generators that produce additional electrical power. This dual renewable energy resource enhances the capability and productivity of the Clean Wind system.
Environmental
Various parties in the United States and other nations are pursuing clean energy solutions that use efficient and cost- effective renewable resources to serve society while avoiding the adverse effects associated with fossil and nuclear fuels, and also the obvious limitations of solar collectors that work only when the sun shines or wind turbines that work only when the wind blows.
The Downdraft Tower has the capability of being operated with virtually no carbon footprint, fuel consumption, or waste production and this technology has the potential to generate clean, cost effective and efficient electrical power without the damaging effects caused by using fossil or nuclear fuels, and other conventional power sources. The Company also believes that increasing emphasis on green technologies and governmental incentives in the energy industry should have a positive long-term effect on the Company's planned business and the wind energy industry in general.
Partners
The Company has entered into a number of agreements with potential partners to meet the development aspects of the tower. Specifically, three of the largest companies in the world are working with clean wind providing final bids to meet the tower's specifications.

Q&A with Josh Levine of MicroCap Investor; Winning Strategy for Stocks in Biotech, Cleantech, and Emerging Technologies
Q&A with Josh Levine of MicroCap Investor; Winning Strategy for Stocks in Biotech, Cleantech, and Emerging Technologies
Insight into Microcap Stock Research with a Long Term Investment Focus
New York, NY, Point Roberts WA, February 7, 2011 – Investorideas.com, an investor research portal specializing in sector investing including cleantech and biotech, interviews Josh Levine of the MicroCap Investor newsletter to gain insight on his research methodology.
Interview:
Q: Investorideas.com
Josh, your newsletter is unique in that you cover microcap stocks, which most investors associate with day trading -- but you research the space to look for long term wins. Can you tell investors why you look within the microcap space for those opportunities?
A: Josh Levine, MicroCap Investor
I view microcap investing as a long-term process that entails holding stocks one, three, five years and longer. It is endlessly fascinating and rewarding to invest in small companies developing new technologies and innovations, but it does require lots of patience and discipline. Jumping in and out of stocks only creates short term capital gains -- a tax consequence we try to avoid.
Successful microcap investing, above all else, relies on fundamental analysis and not market timing or seasonal variations. As long as investors focus on the market’s inefficiencies at this level -- and capitalize on them -- they'll do very well in the long run.
This point about inefficiencies is extremely important. The gaps between the market's perspective and the fundamental realities of a company are vastly wider in smaller stocks than larger ones -- and that's why I‘ve uncovered so many enticing opportunities.
Like the old song goes, "You say potato and I say po-tah-to, you say tomato and I say to-mah-to ..." Similarly, investors in the microsphere seldom agree on the inherent values of these fledgling companies and, more specifically, their potential earnings power several years out.
Of course, that's what makes for a market and that's why there are usually buyers and sellers at almost every price. As they say, one man's trash is another man's treasure. In microcap land, where there are thousands of penny stocks and solid fundamentals are at a premium, there is lots of trash to sift through. Fortunately, I've been around the block enough times to know which neighborhoods hold the real treasures.
Q: Investorideas.com
You have a focus on biotech, cleantech, and other emerging technologies. Can you tell us why those key areas?
A: Josh Levine, MicroCap Investor
Small firms are able to concentrate on high-value-added functions where cutting-edge knowledge and technology are paramount. As a result, the microcaps that execute deliver amazingly high-growth margins and profits -- and fantastic returns to their investors.
By participating in transformational changes in the highest-growth industries, any microcap that successfully navigates the path from R&D to commercialization and beyond will emerge a big winner. There are no better sectors to find these companies than in biotechnology and medical technologies, cleantech and renewable energy, and advanced IT and networking technologies.
The life sciences is a particularly rich group to explore for exciting microcap opportunities. One reason is that big pharma companies are expected to lose as much as $140 billion in annual sales by 2016, as some of their key product patents expire. These drug giants are desperate for new innovations to revitalize their pipelines and small biotechs are an excellent source.
A surprisingly large number of the best microcap prospects reside in the biopharma and biotech sectors. I have always sought out and discovered bio companies with certain valuable attributes. Indeed, compared to the vast majority of sub-$100-million-market-value firms, the biotechs in our portfolio have seasoned management, big-league experienced boards, sane capital structures, enough cash to operate for more than 12 months, and solid partnerships with big pharmas.
In the energy world, for example, the shift to electric transportation will have far-reaching impact on nearly every industry and sector, from energy producers and suppliers to electrical equipment manufacturers and utilities to developers of the smart grid and numerous other advanced IT and energy technologies. Many small companies are building pieces of the emerging infrastructure and smart grids.
It's notable that one of the big boys in global electric infrastructure equipment, ABB, Inc. recently made a $10 million investment in a tiny company that supplies EV charging systems. Mergers and acquisitions will be happening more frequently among companies developing technologies for the smart grid. What’s more, the anticipated IPOs this year for cleantech rising stars like Silver Spring Networks and BrightSource Energy will attract new investors.
Electric networks are the largest, most complex systems around, and it will take massive investments in technology over the next couple of decades to get them into shape to meet soaring demand for ever more efficient and ubiquitous electric power. As a consequence, a multitude of opportunities exist for small, innovative firms to capture lucrative market niches.
Q: Investorideas.com
You have just added a new stock to your watch list I understand. Can you tell us the criteria you have in place when you add a new stock and what you typically look for?
A: Josh Levine, MicroCap Investor
First, I want to point out there are variations in my decision-making process between, for instance, a nanocap listed on the OTC Bulletin Board and an established microcap with a $250 million market cap that’s profitable with an institutional following.
For the smallest microcaps, it’s essential to spend time with management and look at everything with a magnifying glass. For more seasoned companies, there is already a track record as well as more information available, which makes the due diligence process less of a maze.
Obviously, fundamental stock analysis is central, but I’ve learned that investing in small advanced-tech firms is as much art as science. It comes down to certain basics that apply across the board, and they are:
1) People – starting with the founders and top management, nothing counts more than the quality, experience, track record, and credibility of those running the company.
2) Technology – technologies need to perform well but they also must represent a transformational shift or add significant value by improving current products or systems.
3) Markets – technologies must address a sizable market, or it’s simply not worth the effort. Also, it’s essential to monitor market trends and being clued in to what industry leaders are doing. As senior analyst for ChangeWave Research, I am able to track the pace of change across many industries.
4) Intangibles – this covers everything under the intellectual property umbrella, from patents to trade secrets, including everything inside the heads of employees. There’s nothing tougher to quantify, but it’s vital to get as much understanding as you can about these assets.
5) Capital Structure – this reveals a whole lot about a company’s history and the ability of executives to manage growth and build for the future. Problems in the capital structure often cripple microcaps, so investors need to be very critical in their analysis.
Q: Investorideas.com
I remember hearing old time investors talking about making their big wins in the market by finding the next big thing and holding on for years. In the past few years that mentality has been dismantled by what transpired in 2008. Do you still see that kind of opportunity in the market – and what kind of wins are you seeing in your portfolio?
A: Josh Levine, MicroCap Investor
Yes, the opportunities for returns of 200%, 500%, 1,000% and higher continue to be out there. But to earn the truly life-altering profits, you need to be fully invested in the best microcap stocks prior to any major bull cycle. A big portion of gains are often made in the early phase of a bull market for microcaps, so you’ve got to be positioned early. Otherwise, by the time the trend takes shape, it’s usually too late to build the kind of low-cost positions that ultimately deliver those ten-bagger profits.
Today I believe we’re in the early stages of a microcap bull market, but it’s difficult to predict the exact timing. Still, ever since the end of 2008 – even before the general market bottomed – the stocks in the MicroCap Investor portfolio have been trending higher.
We ended 2010 on a high note by capturing a 138% profit by selling one-half of our position in a company that’s leading the charge, so to speak, in energy solutions for transportation.
Another microcap in our portfolio, a developer of a new class of cancer therapeutics, is up 240% since I first recommended it to subscribers. When I added this stock to our portfolio it was within pennies of its six-year low. The value of this biotech, which has a long-standing partnership with a leading biopharma and a healthy cash hoard, lies in the ability of its drugs to be used in combination therapies and its excellent prospects for attracting licensees. While its gains so far have been good, this stock could soar five to ten times its current price depending on the success of clinical trials for its various drugs.
In general, our biotech positions are looking very, very good. In less than six months, we’re up 43% with a stem cell developer which already has two revenue-generating businesses. And a number of others have been regularly hitting new milestones, which eventually will be translated into much higher market valuations.
While all of the stocks in our portfolio are positioned for tremendous upside ahead, the most consistent performers have been what I call the “Mature Microcaps.” For instance, within this group we’ve got a gain of 109% with a supplier of advanced equipment for large-scale solar projects, and we’re up 76% with a designer of 3G/4G wireless chips.
Finally, one of my favorite microcaps today is a company which has developed and is selling advanced mobile services to multi-billion dollar markets worldwide in dire need of its cost-effective and efficient solutions. We’ve already got a 120% gain, but I believe this one has all the characteristics of rapidly becoming one of the great microcap winners of the decade.
The recent activity in our micros, nice as it’s been, hardly measures up to the bonanzas of past microcap bull runs. A big reason is that this bull market lacks the full participation of the public which has remained enormously risk-adverse after the blow-ups, busts and downturns of the past decade.
Depending on the breadth and length of this upturn, individual investors will increasingly come back into the game, and eventually in large numbers. By then, however, the biggest profits will have been registered by those investors positioned far ahead of the herd.

Castilla y León, Spain (Feb. 4, 2011) - Nissan International SA has joined Renault SA's partnership with the regional government of Castilla y León to advance zero-emission mobility in the region through the promotion of electric vehicles and an electric-vehicle charging network.
Under a Memorandum of Understanding signed by both parties, Nissan will deliver electric vehicles to Castilla y León through its dealer network, starting in 2011 with the 100% electric Nissan LEAF, the world's first affordable zero-emission vehicle for the global mass market. Nissan will also help define and validate EV charging devices in the region to ensure their compatibility with current and future regulations. The regional government plans to set up 900 public charging points by 2015. Of that total, 300 will be located on streets while 600 will be installed in underground parking areas. Castilla y León may supplement some with quick charging points depending upon market demand. By the end of 2011, 40 charging points are expected to have been installed above ground and 60 underground.
Castilla y León is also planning several financial and non-financial incentives to boost demand for electric vehicles, including tax credits and subsidies for home charging units.
"Castilla y León will be the first Spanish region to mass produce a 100% electric car when Renault, with whom we signed an agreement last year, starts producing here in late 2011. Our Regional Strategy for EVs includes measures to boost consumer demand and industrial activities linked to such cars. We are also investing in the necessary charging infrastructure to guarantee the success of this new mode of transportation. Together with Nissan and Renault, the two leading global automakers in electromobility, we now have a solid partnership for advancing the market," said Tomas Villanueva, Economic Vice President of the regional government of Castilla y León.

Ener1 (Nasdaq:HEV ) Showcased for Innovation and Job Growth
Vice President Joe Biden Visits Company's Battery Pack Assembly Plant
Announces Large-Scale Government Program to Spur Electric Vehicle Deployment
GREENFIELD, Ind., Jan. 26, 2011 -- Ener1, Inc. (Nasdaq:HEV ) provided a backdrop today for remarks by Vice President Joe Biden on the administration's continued commitment to asserting U.S. leadership in the advanced vehicle industry, a centerpiece of White House economic and environmental policy.
"As the president said last night, by 2015 we will have one million electric vehicles on the road," Biden said, referring to President Barack Obama's State of the Union address last night. "Once America has set a goal as a nation, we have never, never not achieved it," the vice president told Ener1's 350 Indiana employees and invited guests during a presentation at the company's Mt. Comfort plant.
The vice president visited Ener1, a leading manufacturer of advanced lithium-ion batteries, to witness the company's progress since receiving a $118.5 million federal stimulus grant in 2009. Biden commended Ener1 for its success in leveraging federal funds to attract private capital, in creating hundreds of new jobs for automotive industry workers and contributing to U.S. innovation in electric-drive technology.
The vice president also seized the occasion to announce a new federal program to accelerate the wide-scale adoption of electric vehicles. Under the proposed initiative included in the president's upcoming budget, 30 deployment communities, cities and towns across America, would be selected on a competitive basis for federal grants to support financial incentives for car purchases and charging infrastructure development, among other measures. The president is also asking for an almost 90-percent funding increase to nearly $590 million for advanced vehicle technologies.
Biden was introduced by Ener1 battery assembly line worker Wendy Howard, supported in the audience by her three sons and father. Before joining Ener1, Howard was downsized out of a job assembling pumps for power steering systems at a failing automotive plant. "Now I make these hi-tech batteries for electric cars that don't disturb the environment and don't drink up oil that we don't have."
Ener1, a principal investor in the dedicated electric vehicle manufacturer THINK™, had several cars on display at the event and demonstrated a two-seat urban commuter model for the vice president. The THINK City vehicle, which went on sale in the U.S. in December, is manufactured in the city of Elkhart, Ind. President Obama selected Elkhart in 2009 to announce $2.4 billion in electric-drive grants, the single-largest investment in advanced battery manufacturing in American history.
"The honor of being paid a visit by the vice president of the United States at our plant, and of being the site of an announcement of this magnitude for the nascent electric drive industry, is truly a reward for hard work," commented Ener1 Chairman and CEO Charles Gassenheimer. "The employees of our company certainly all desrve it."

Questions regarding Solar Stocks and meaning of Relative Strength
J Peter Lynch
I have received a number of e-mails since we started publishing our solar stock ratings table and the majority of the questions center around the term “relative strength”.
As readers have seen in my year end article that the strongest “relative” solar stocks dramatically outperformed the markets in 2010, 42.94% to 13.87% , while the average solar stock actually decreased (-14.6%) in 2010, this is significant out performance and certainly worthy of note.
Most people seem to understand what relative strength means, on the surface - that one stock is stronger “relative” to another stock or that one stock is stronger “relative” to the market as a whole.
I use a proprietary method for measuring and comparing stocks to stocks and stocks to the market as a whole and I am sure there are other methods available that can be utilized that I am not aware of.
However, I have always found that an “example” is ALWAYS better than a bunch of words. So I have picked an example that will CLEARLY show the power of this selection process and how truly valuable it can be to investors, especially over the longer term.
I will compare two IDENTICAL portfolio of stocks
The first is the Standard and Poors 500 – symbol SPX
The second is the Rydex Standard and Poors 500 Equal weighted – symbol RSP
Both include the EXACT SAME 500 stocks except that the SPX is CAP (capitalization weighted) so that the largest stocks hold for a larger weight i.e. percentage of the total 500 stocks and the other, RSP in which EACH stock has an equal weight in the index.
When I compared these two indexes to each other I found that in early 2000 that my system indicated that the RSP had just turned positive against the SPX – which means it was the stronger (relative to each other) of the two.
To see how significant this indication was I went back to 1/1/2000 and compared the performance of both up to the close yesterday 1-19-2011 – over a ten year + period.
The results were:
SPX was down 12.69% over this decade long period and the RSP was UP 69.92% over the exact same time period with the exact same stocks included. Amazingly the RSP outperformed the SPX by over 650% in that period.
I think this illustration is a crystal clear example of how significant it is for an investor to make sure they invest in the “strongest” stocks relative to markets and to their peers and not just what they hear in the press or on TV that tells them what is “hot”. The most important thing is to see what stocks or groups are the strongest relative to others and bet on those. Bet on “what is” NOT on what people think “emotionally” are the best stocks.
Remember what I said in my year end article:
“Let me give you a totally NON logical example that will make it clear that guessing and perhaps “logical” are not really good tools for an investor. I think I can safely say that the top topics for 2010 and the ones that are on everyone’s mind are: jobs, the economy, the housing crisis and the persistent recession as it drags on. So, given that background, what do you think were the top 3 market sectors in 2010 in terms of returns for investors?
Give up? Can’t even guess?
Well they were:
1. Autos
2. Restaurants
3. Leisure
All of them are consumer related and we all KNOW (for sure?) that this is a terrible recession and that the economy is in bad shape and that it would be impossible for consumer related areas to do well, right?
Wrong! They not only did well they were the best 3 areas.
So what can we learn from this?
What we can learn is that an investor has to STOP thinking they KNOW what “should be” given the circumstances as the investor sees them and realize that the most important thing is NOT what you think should be but “WHAT IS”. If umbrella sales are going thru the roof during a massive drought – forget about what you “know” – BUY umbrella stocks!”

Questions regarding Solar Stocks and meaning of Relative Strength
J Peter Lynch
I have received a number of e-mails since we started publishing our solar stock ratings table and the majority of the questions center around the term “relative strength”.
As readers have seen in my year end article that the strongest “relative” solar stocks dramatically outperformed the markets in 2010, 42.94% to 13.87% , while the average solar stock actually decreased (-14.6%) in 2010, this is significant out performance and certainly worthy of note.
Most people seem to understand what relative strength means, on the surface - that one stock is stronger “relative” to another stock or that one stock is stronger “relative” to the market as a whole.
I use a proprietary method for measuring and comparing stocks to stocks and stocks to the market as a whole and I am sure there are other methods available that can be utilized that I am not aware of.
However, I have always found that an “example” is ALWAYS better than a bunch of words. So I have picked an example that will CLEARLY show the power of this selection process and how truly valuable it can be to investors, especially over the longer term.
I will compare two IDENTICAL portfolio of stocks
The first is the Standard and Poors 500 – symbol SPX
The second is the Rydex Standard and Poors 500 Equal weighted – symbol RSP
Both include the EXACT SAME 500 stocks except that the SPX is CAP (capitalization weighted) so that the largest stocks hold for a larger weight i.e. percentage of the total 500 stocks and the other, RSP in which EACH stock has an equal weight in the index.
When I compared these two indexes to each other I found that in early 2000 that my system indicated that the RSP had just turned positive against the SPX – which means it was the stronger (relative to each other) of the two.
To see how significant this indication was I went back to 1/1/2000 and compared the performance of both up to the close yesterday 1-19-2011 – over a ten year + period.
The results were:
SPX was down 12.69% over this decade long period and the RSP was UP 69.92% over the exact same time period with the exact same stocks included. Amazingly the RSP outperformed the SPX by over 650% in that period.
I think this illustration is a crystal clear example of how significant it is for an investor to make sure they invest in the “strongest” stocks relative to markets and to their peers and not just what they hear in the press or on TV that tells them what is “hot”. The most important thing is to see what stocks or groups are the strongest relative to others and bet on those. Bet on “what is” NOT on what people think “emotionally” are the best stocks.
Remember what I said in my year end article:
“Let me give you a totally NON logical example that will make it clear that guessing and perhaps “logical” are not really good tools for an investor. I think I can safely say that the top topics for 2010 and the ones that are on everyone’s mind are: jobs, the economy, the housing crisis and the persistent recession as it drags on. So, given that background, what do you think were the top 3 market sectors in 2010 in terms of returns for investors?
Give up? Can’t even guess?
Well they were:
1. Autos
2. Restaurants
3. Leisure
All of them are consumer related and we all KNOW (for sure?) that this is a terrible recession and that the economy is in bad shape and that it would be impossible for consumer related areas to do well, right?
Wrong! They not only did well they were the best 3 areas.
So what can we learn from this?
What we can learn is that an investor has to STOP thinking they KNOW what “should be” given the circumstances as the investor sees them and realize that the most important thing is NOT what you think should be but “WHAT IS”. If umbrella sales are going thru the roof during a massive drought – forget about what you “know” – BUY umbrella stocks!”

2010 was certainly a year to remember. It had its ups and it had it downs, but in the end it was up an average of 13.87% (averaging the three major indexes – see table below) that is a far better than the average year and despite a constant barrage of terrible news the market continued to climb its “wall of worry”.
With everyone worrying about jobs and the economy the year seemed to be a never ending sequence of one bad set of news after the other. But if there is one think I have learned over the years is NEVER to listen to the talking heads on TV or to the hundreds of “experts” all over the internet who tell you what is going to happen tomorrow based upon what has happened today. That is silly and also, more importantly, impossible. No one can know what is going to happen or why it is going to happen, if you pay close attention you will eventually see that everyone is clearly guessing and guessing is NOT one of the tools that a successful investor employs.
The Importance of seeing “What is” verses what we think “should” be
Let me give you a totally NON logical example that will make it clear that guessing and perhaps "logical" are not really good tools for an investor. I think I can safely say that the top topics for 2010 and the ones that are on everyone's mind are: jobs, the economy, the housing crisis and the persistent recession as it drags on. So, given that background, what do you think were the top 3 market sectors in 2010 in terms of returns for investors?
Give up? Can't even guess?
Well they were:
Autos
Restaurants
Leisure
All of them are consumer related and we all KNOW (for sure?) that this is a terrible recession and that the economy is in bad shape and that it would be impossible for consumer related areas to do well, right?
Wrong! They not only did well they were the best 3 areas.
So what can we learn from this?
What we can learn is that an investor has to STOP thinking they KNOW what "should be" given the circumstances as the investor sees them and realize that the most important thing is NOT what you think should be but "WHAT IS". If umbrella sales are going thru the roof during a massive drought - forget about what you "know" - BUY umbrella stocks!
The Best and the Worst of 2010
Now that you know the three best areas for investors in 2010, what was the worst area for investors in 2011?
The worst area for investors in 2011 was the solar sector, specifically the PV sector that we follow closely it was down and average of 14.6% in a very good year (up 13.87% on average) for the market.
Based upon this fact, it would be terrible to invest in this area for any sane investor? Correct?
Well in general, yes. If you bought each of our solar stocks you would have been down approximately 14.6% for the year. However, if you bought the "best" of the solar stocks - our solar seven, you would have been up an average of 42.94% more than 300% better than the general market averages.

Solar Seven Selection Criteria
Back in the beginning of 2010 I explained that we were rating all of our solar stocks and that the seven strongest stocks – later named – “The Solar Seven” were the strongest stocks among the industry. My rating system is a proprietary combination of various relative strength measures, technical measures and some fundamental components.
What can we learn from this amazing performance in a terrible solar market?
What we can learn is that there are always stocks going up somewhere, even in a terrible market and if you select the “strongest” stocks in a given market segment you will, on average, do quite well. Even if, they are umbrella’s in a drought – regardless of what you “think” you know, always remember that “what is, is” and always buy the strongest stocks in a sector or market. You may not always know “why” something happens, but you will, on average, do much better than most investors and most likely better than the market.

2010 was certainly a year to remember. It had its ups and it had it downs, but in the end it was up an average of 13.87% (averaging the three major indexes – see table below) that is a far better than the average year and despite a constant barrage of terrible news the market continued to climb its “wall of worry”.
With everyone worrying about jobs and the economy the year seemed to be a never ending sequence of one bad set of news after the other. But if there is one think I have learned over the years is NEVER to listen to the talking heads on TV or to the hundreds of “experts” all over the internet who tell you what is going to happen tomorrow based upon what has happened today. That is silly and also, more importantly, impossible. No one can know what is going to happen or why it is going to happen, if you pay close attention you will eventually see that everyone is clearly guessing and guessing is NOT one of the tools that a successful investor employs.
The Importance of seeing “What is” verses what we think “should” be
Let me give you a totally NON logical example that will make it clear that guessing and perhaps "logical" are not really good tools for an investor. I think I can safely say that the top topics for 2010 and the ones that are on everyone's mind are: jobs, the economy, the housing crisis and the persistent recession as it drags on. So, given that background, what do you think were the top 3 market sectors in 2010 in terms of returns for investors?
Give up? Can't even guess?
Well they were:
Autos
Restaurants
Leisure
All of them are consumer related and we all KNOW (for sure?) that this is a terrible recession and that the economy is in bad shape and that it would be impossible for consumer related areas to do well, right?
Wrong! They not only did well they were the best 3 areas.
So what can we learn from this?
What we can learn is that an investor has to STOP thinking they KNOW what "should be" given the circumstances as the investor sees them and realize that the most important thing is NOT what you think should be but "WHAT IS". If umbrella sales are going thru the roof during a massive drought - forget about what you "know" - BUY umbrella stocks!
The Best and the Worst of 2010
Now that you know the three best areas for investors in 2010, what was the worst area for investors in 2011?
The worst area for investors in 2011 was the solar sector, specifically the PV sector that we follow closely it was down and average of 14.6% in a very good year (up 13.87% on average) for the market.
Based upon this fact, it would be terrible to invest in this area for any sane investor? Correct?
Well in general, yes. If you bought each of our solar stocks you would have been down approximately 14.6% for the year. However, if you bought the "best" of the solar stocks - our solar seven, you would have been up an average of 42.94% more than 300% better than the general market averages.

Renewable Energy Stocks ; NRG (NYSE:NRG) to Acquire 290-Megawatt Agua Caliente Solar Project from First Solar (Nasdaq:FSLR )
Renewable Energy Stocks ; NRG (NYSE:NRG)to Acquire 290-Megawatt Agua Caliente Solar Project from First Solar (Nasdaq:FSLR )
Project will be the largest photovoltaic solar field in the world when completed; Enhances NRG’s growing Arizona business
PRINCETON, N.J. & TEMPE, Ariz.--(www.investorideas.com renewable energy/green newswire ) -- NRG Energy, Inc. (NYSE:NRG) and First Solar, Inc. (Nasdaq:FSLR ) announced that NRG, through its wholly owned subsidiary, NRG Solar, has agreed to acquire the 290-megawatt (MW) Agua Caliente solar project from First Solar. The project is scheduled to be completed by 2014 and has a 25-year power purchase agreement with Pacific Gas and Electric Company. When completed, Agua Caliente is expected to be the largest operational photovoltaic (PV) site in the world.
Located in Yuma County, AZ, the Agua Caliente project is expected to generate state and local tax revenues, provide wages for up to 400 construction jobs and create economic benefits for many local businesses.
“Solar power is critical to transitioning our nation to having a greater emphasis on large-scale clean energy technologies and it is going to be projects of the scale of Agua Caliente that will help us achieve this ambitious goal,” said David Crane, President and CEO of NRG Energy. “This investment significantly increases our presence in the state and benefits the residents of Arizona while providing attractive returns to NRG’s stakeholders.”
At full capacity, NRG estimates the 290 MW project will provide clean, zero-emission electricity for more than 225,000 homes. The project is expected to offset approximately 5.5 million metric tons of CO2 over 25 years, the equivalent of taking over 40,000 cars off the road annually. Agua Caliente will generate electricity with no air emissions, no waste production and no water consumption.
“Agua Caliente is representative of our mission to provide clean, affordable, sustainable solar energy, capitalizing on our advanced thin-film technology and the tremendous solar resource of Arizona,” said Rob Gillette, CEO of First Solar. “We are very pleased to further expand our relationship with NRG as the owner of Agua Caliente, the first of our multi-hundred-megawatt utility-scale projects to begin construction.”
An application has been submitted to the U.S. Department of Energy for a federal loan guarantee in connection with the financing of the project, which is expected to be one of the first in the U.S. to start construction under the program. Closing of the acquisition is contingent on receiving the federal loan guarantee. NRG plans to invest up to $800 million of equity in the project through 2014 through a potential combination of cash on hand in addition to third-party investor equity.
Situated on 2,400 acres of land between Yuma and Phoenix, AZ, the Agua Caliente project has secured all necessary permits for construction and the early construction phases have begun. First Solar has developed the project and is the engineering, procurement and construction contractor, using its advanced thin-film PV modules. First Solar will provide operations and maintenance services.
The Agua Caliente solar project is the latest in a series of clean energy advancements NRG has made in Arizona this year. In June, NRG purchased the district energy system in Phoenix, NRG Energy Center Phoenix, that produces and distributes chilled water to customers in the Phoenix central business district as well as operating and maintaining district energy/combined heat and power plants for Arizona State University and in Tucson. In September, NRG began an initiative with Kennedy Partners to develop solar arrays for Arizona schools to meet their own electricity needs while providing new teaching tools and shade for parking. NRG is also developing a 25 MW solar photovoltaic project for Tucson Electric Power to help meet the energy demands of the state with renewable energy.
“Arizona is a key area of growth for NRG where our investment is creating local jobs and building infrastructure,” said Tom Doyle, president of NRG Solar and a Phoenix resident. “It is very gratifying to be able to see the benefits of our partnerships with local schools, providing cooling and heating for local businesses and universities and developing solar fields like Agua Caliente and our project for Tucson Electric Power. This is a relationship that will benefit all Arizona residents for a very long time.”

Solar Stocks; Westinghouse Solar (Nasdaq:WEST ) Fourth Quarter 2010 Update
Solar Stocks; Westinghouse Solar Fourth Quarter 2010 Update
CAMPBELL, Calif., Dec. 15, 2010 (www.investorideas.com renewable energy/green newswire ) -- Akeena Solar, Inc. d/b/a Westinghouse Solar, (Nasdaq:WEST ), a manufacturer and distributor of solar power systems, today provided a fourth quarter 2010 business update.
On September 10, 2010 Westinghouse Solar announced it would be expanding its distribution business to include sales of its Westinghouse Solar Power Systems directly to dealers in California, and exiting its solar panel installation business. The company provided guidance on October 28 that it anticipated sequential revenue growth for its distribution business of approximately 40-50% in the fourth quarter of 2010 as compared to the third quarter.
"We are encouraged by the pace of sales in the fourth quarter and we are confident that we will see sequential revenue growth in excess of 50%," said Barry Cinnamon, CEO of Westinghouse Solar. "Our agreement with Real Goods Solar to become an authorized Westinghouse Solar installer jump-started our California distribution business as they are installing Westinghouse Solar systems in the fourth quarter on projects we transferred to them, and are selling new systems that will be installed in 2011. We continue to add new dealers both within California and in the rest of the country, and our network of installers is now over 130 independent solar dealers extending into 34 states plus Canada.
"So far, we are seeing positive signs that the distribution business should prove to be as scalable as we anticipated when we made the decision to exit the installation business. We are also continuing discussions with new strategic distribution partners to increase our top line sales, and supplier partners to reduce our costs. We continue to anticipate that our cash operating expenses for continuing operations will be approximately $1.5 -- 1.6 million in the fourth quarter. In addition, our efforts to protect our solar panel installation technology are evidenced by the latest patent we received from the U.S. Patent and Trademark Organization," concluded Cinnamon.

"We are encouraged by the pace of sales in the fourth quarter and we are confident that we will see sequential revenue growth in excess of 50%," said Barry Cinnamon, CEO of Westinghouse Solar. "Our agreement with Real Goods Solar to become an authorized Westinghouse Solar installer jump-started our California distribution business as they are installing Westinghouse Solar systems in the fourth quarter on projects we transferred to them, and are selling new systems that will be installed in 2011. We continue to add new dealers both within California and in the rest of the country, and our network of installers is now over 130 independent solar dealers extending into 34 states plus Canada.
"So far, we are seeing positive signs that the distribution business should prove to be as scalable as we anticipated when we made the decision to exit the installation business. We are also continuing discussions with new strategic distribution partners to increase our top line sales, and supplier partners to reduce our costs. We continue to anticipate that our cash operating expenses for continuing operations will be approximately $1.5 -- 1.6 million in the fourth quarter. In addition, our efforts to protect our solar panel installation technology are evidenced by the latest patent we received from the U.S. Patent and Trademark Organization," concluded Cinnamon.
