According to Bloomberg, $8.85 trillion is waiting to be invested in green energy. So what are some useful tips for investing in renewable energy stocks?
First is to decide on a specific type of green business. One can decide to focus on purely renewable energy companies or one can also opt to focus on low-carbon building materials, or on electric efficiency.
Next step is to prepare for investing money that may not give back big returns. One should always remember that green businesses that have greater return on investment mean riskier investments. Therefore, only invest in an amount you are ready to lose.
The ‘Vaso-Pressing’ effects constricting the life channel of the capital markets-the ‘Liquidity’, due to credit market squeeze in response to the US sub prime mortgage crisis, has eased since the Fed cut interest rates. The rate cut by 50 bps, has been something more than expected by the analysts and market participants alike. Global equity markets reacted sharply to this effect as they saw bulls running all the way with Dow Jones and other emerging markets reaching new highs.
Just curious if there is a name to my type of trading. Each day about 15mins before the market closes I look at a new Mutual funds that have served me well over the past few years. If I find one where the top 10 holdings are mostly in the green I invest in and then the next day I sell that fund and buy another. Last two months I have a 89% profit which for somebody who started the game with little and probably still little knowledge seems good.

Stock trading is one of the last true meritocracies. All that matters for your investment success are your own decisions. Stock trading is a precision-based activity and one tiny mistake in judgment could send you plummeting right to the bottom and result in a huge loss.
Likewise, the opposite could happen. You may make a great buying decision that will put you on the path to riches. Traditional stock trading is done at stock exchanges, which are places where buyers and sellers meet and decide on a price, although electronic trading is gaining in popularity. Stock trading is affected by how well the economy is doing and by basic supply and demand considerations.
A year ago, Silver was in the midst of a severe price correction, one precipitated by the global credit crisis and the massive rush toward liquidation of commodity futures contracts – at any price – that ensued. Silver plunged from nearly $21.00 all the way down to the sub-$9.00 range, causing many commodity investors to doubt that the Silver bull market had any chance of ever attaining such lofty prices again. Well, those doubts have all but been erased, and the technicals depicted on the following chart should be enough to convince all but the most hardened skeptics that Silver is alive, well and quite possibly enmeshed in what could be its most powerful bull market to date.
There was a very interesting article in the Wall Street Journal this morning stating that Asset allocation has failed.

The article states ” The financial crisis has sent many financial advisers, academics and investors back to the drawing board”. What I do not understand is how can financial professionals still overlook commodity trading and trend following. In commodity trading virtually every type of product used in human existence is considered to be traded. When I mean traded.. I mean if there is a trend to be followed. It does not matter if it is soymeal or feeder cattle or gold or oil, these commodities trend. When there is a trend, trend following commodity traders put themselves in the position to profit. More so the correlation to stocks and bonds is small.
The article continues to state the statistics such as the S&P 500 lost 37%, the MSCI index of major markets in Europe, Asia and Australia lost 45%. The MSCI emerging-markets index fell 55%. Real-estate investment trusts declined 37%, high-yield bonds lost 26% and commodities fell 37%..
However there is a major issue with this fact! So what commodities fell 37%. Commodity traders go long and go short. This means very simply,no buy and hold, being flexible and no opinions. In commodity trading, commodity trading advisors can make money trading both sides of the market ( the long side…if prices go up..and the short side ..if prices go down). Using any common sense do prices only go one direction? Nope…just look at crude oil up to $147 and crashing down to $30 something and then back up again to $73. All along the way commodity trading advisors that adhere to trend following took out pieces of this trend and made money.They did not catch the bottom nor the top, but pieces of the trend. Maybe I have been doing this too long, but is so complicated to understand this. Why didn’t the so called experts predict the market crash in 2008? Trend following commodity trading advisors did not predict anything but rode the down trend in the stock market indicies and made HUGE PROFITS…fact..not fiction..
