Chinese Solar Stocks Are Plunging!
Last week I warned you that high flying Chinese solar stocks were poised for a fall. It was all but certain the European Union would impose anti-dumping sanctions on these companies in early June. And as a result, I urged you to lock in your gains on these stocks immediately. Hopefully, you took my advice. […]
Time To Lock In Gains On Chinese Solar Stocks?
If you bet on solar stocks at the end of 2012, you’re feeling pretty smart right about now. Stocks in this beaten down industry have been soaring off the chart in 2013. Take a look at the Guggenheim Solar ETF (NASDAQ: TAN) for example. TAN has exploded from just under $16 per share at the […]
A Sign The Apocalypse Is Near!
Earlier this week I had the pleasure of sitting down to chat with non-fiction, sci-fi, and fiction writer Frank Fiore.

Time To Buy Japanese Stocks?
“Learn Japanese… you’ll be working for them someday.” This suggestion was given to me back in the late 1980s by my high school Economics teacher. And at the time, it seemed like sage advice.

Here’s the kicker… going […]
Chinese Stocks Rally To End 2012
The past three years have been challenging for Chinese stocks to say the least. After trading around 3,200 in January 2010, the Shanghai Composite slid to just under 2,000 in early December 2012. That’s a 35-month decline of 37%. However, it looks like the trend is finally changing for the better. As you can see, […]
This Rare Chinese IPO Is A Big Winner
2012 has been one of the slowest years ever for IPOs of Chinese stocks on American exchanges. Just three Chinese companies went public in the US this year. That’s way down from the peak set just two years ago. In 2010, a whopping 42 Chinese companies held initial public offerings in the US. Why the […]
