Clean Energy Jobs, Tax Credits & Investing
The US Map above graphically illustrates the 43 states whose companies received tax credits to support clean energy projects . If you are an investor, consider researching some of the companies that received the grants in order to see if these grants could materially benefit these companies and thus the share price. I looked at a few companies on the list (see the bottom of this page for an excel spreadsheet) and found that each one of the company’s share price increased after the announcement.

Wall St. Bank Stock Recommendations
Are you thinking about investing in the major US banks? Zero Hedge put together the above graphic to show the cozy relationship between the major US banks. Each of the green arrows shows one bank recommending the stock of another bank. Most of the red arrows come from an analyst at a European bank. Go to Zero Hedge to read the post and see the graphic in more detail. What I want to know is how much of each of these bank’s assets include stock in the banks that they are recommending. I also want to know if they were buyers or sellers after their recommendations came out. Buying stock solely on the basis of a recommendation is a loser’s strategy. You should have a basis for the investment (fundamental and/or technical) that you understand and a target price or plan to sell. This is not a time to buy and hold. Stock downgrades typically come out too late and/or after the institutional stock owners have sold.
