[Grovenet] Common ground (stocks!)

[Eric Canon]

I had an idea this morning about a possible topic
we might investigate here: Stocks!

Hot stocks. Cold stocks. Local stocks. Cold
stocks that are sure to be hot stocks real soon.
Sharing of inside information on this list for
our mutual enrichment (Information perhaps shared
with W and the NSA). 

I've had my eye on two that make solar panels,
since I see that area as definitely on the rise.
They are SunPower Corporation (SPWR) which I
bought in early May for $39. and watched it crash
to $25. in June (caveat emptor everybody!), and
Energy Conversion Devices (ENER) which I bought
about the same time for $52. It now sells for
$37.50. Obviously I'm looking for help with my
investments, and anyone who takes my advice is a
fool (not the "Motley" variety, either). I still
think each of these will ultimately be good
stocks, though highly volatile. But what do I
know?!

Anyone have any sure winners? Sage advice? Is
this a time to be in the market at all? Are
energy stocks still attractive as they have been
for the past five years, or is it time to bail?
