AltEnergyStocks.com for Solid Investment Advice on Clean Energy
I just got off a Skype session with Teddy Bamford, a hip and super-bright student at the Berklee College of Music in Boston. Teddy wanted my opinion on investing in clean energy, based on his belief that the Obama administration will be supporting this industry. “From your lips to God’s ears,” as they say.
Teddy’s a college student, so we’re understandably not talking about a huge sum of money, but he wants to make a prudent decision nonetheless. He needs something publicly traded; he’s not a candidate for one of my clean energy investment opportunities in the start-up space. So I directed him where I’ve sent countless others over the years: to AltEnergyStocks.com, run by my friend Tom Konrad, and I told him that, last time we spoke anyway, Tom was especially bullish on New Flyer Industries, a manufacturer of buses with a variety of alt-fuel drive trains.
Good luck, Teddy!
Thanks for the shout-out, Craig. New Flyer has been an excellent performer this year, by the way, with a 50% total return since the start of the year (Not sure when I mentioned it to you; it’s been one of my faves for a long time.)
Right now, my top picks would be Maxwell (MXWL) and Ameresco (AMRC) both of which have been beaten up recently because of problems caused by the ongoing economic uncertainty, making the stocks cheap,but where I like the long term prospects. Both are also currently being bought by company insiders.
I’ve written about both recently here:

AMRC: http://onforb.es/SOANDl
Oh trust me, you’ve been talking to me about New Flyer for quite a while, and yes, I wish I had taken your advice!
Within a few seconds of this post, I’m asking my broker to buy for me Maxwell (MXWL) and Ameresco (AMRC) at the open Tuesday. Thanks.
I did, in fact, buy a bit of both. Let’s see what happens.
