Recommendations story about SOLF from Oppenheimer
Oppenheimer lowered their estimates on several solar companies after finding commentary at the Solar Power International Conference more subdued. Opco believes the weakening Euro and tighter credit have been incremental negatives over the past several weeks, but feels these negatives are largely expected by investors. The firm still views solar stocks as cheap, even with their lowered estimates. Oppenheimer cut numbers for Canadian Solar (CSIQ), JA Solar (JASO), ReneSola (SOL), Solarfun (SOLF), Suntech (STP), and Yingli (YGE) to reflect a tough pricing environment, and feels ReneSola stood-out positively against a tough backdrop. :
That last line has been haunting me folks... for days. No one ever plays ReneSola and they stood out positively at the conference, the conference that resulted in a lot of bad vibes for solar on the financing side and in particular gave the stock I was looking at SOLF the means to earn a downgrade... take one letter away and what do you have? SOL Opportunity me thinks.... ~ stoney
