It looks like my stock investment SATC may be starting to take off. Satcon makes large scale DC to AC power inverters to connect solar panels to the power grid for companies. ![grin](/boards/images/graemlins/default/grin.gif)

I guess that adds a new rule of thumb to the standard investment guidelines -- buy cloudy, sell sunny ![wink ;\)](/boards/images/graemlins/default/wink.gif)

Come one stock market. Burn rubber and crash already!
I bought SDS, which is an ETF that is caled UltraShort S&P 500. If the market crashes, I make money. Provided I sell before it recovers.

I bought apple back in 2007, about 6 months before the first iphone came out... haven't looked back since.....
my old roommate had some solar stocks.. i think those are good long term, but the prices for the technology have to come down, for them to become more particle. when someone can buy a 1000W+ panel for 1-3$ per watt then i think you will see a much larger increase in those companies sales.

I have been looking into FOREX Market. I am still a novice, so I have lost some money. LOL Now I am getting deeper into FOREX theory and trading techniques. Hopefully I will become a pro someday! ![cool cool](/boards/images/graemlins/default/cool.gif)

I bought almost $1000 of Apple stock back in 1997. I recently checked my Portfolio and after splitting... 4 times? and running up to current, it would now be worth ~$90,000
It would be, except I sold it in 2002 to help pay for my wedding. I got $1100 back. But hey, I don't have a crystal ball and >10% isn't a bad return.
Thats what I keep telling myself anyway.

Don't look at it as $1100 from $1000, but instead you got $1100 + wife from $1000 ![smile smile](/boards/images/graemlins/default/smile.gif)

I bought SDS, which is an ETF that is caled UltraShort S&P 500. If the market crashes, I make money. Provided I sell before it recovers. DJIA 9,854.55 -283.97 -2.80% NASDAQ 2,133.79 -86.86 -3.91% S&P 500 1,039.03 -35.54 -3.31% As of 3:25 EST - Is that enough of a drop for you? It certainly will be a huge hit for the energy stocks I'm in ![cry cry](/boards/images/graemlins/default/cry.gif) Scott
