    By Rob | May 2, 2008

    The market did good this week, and if you had researched some of the good stock ideas i generated here in the previous posts- you did well too. When i come back tomorrow I will post more detailed review of what looks good in the market. So check back here by Monday.

    SOLAR UPDATE: Over the course of the next few months, Congress is to debate several energy-related issues, which have risen in importance on Capitol Hill. While the US market is small - only about 10% of the worldwide market - the potential is enormous and its eventual growth is critical to the industry. There are bunch of companies I like here like SPWR, FSLR, STP, CSIQ. Let me know if I am missing a leader here.

    BOOK: I am also reading Beating the Market, 3 Months at a Time: A Proven Investing Plan Everyone Can Use (Hardcover). Before I finish it completely, I want to tell you that I already know how to outperform the market just by reading Chapter 1-5. So, next week I will post an interview with the authors here and review of this great book for everyone. Until then, if you want to know how to outperform the averages, get yourself a copy of this book.

    This Weekend at the movies: The IRON MAN
    All eyes will be on “Iron Man” this weekend, and Marvel and Paramount are banking on the film’s
    ferromagnetism to attract moviegoers in droves. Adapted from the popular Marvel Comics character of the same name, “Iron Man” stars Robert Downey Jr. as Tony Stark, a wealthy industrialist turned superhero. After being hijacked by terrorists, he fashions a high-tech exoskeleton, which he uses to escape captivity and eventually face off against the evil Obadiah Stane. “Iron Man” may not enjoy the same level of awareness or popularity of other comic franchises like “X-Men” or “The Incredible Hulk.” This weekend’s other new release, Sony’s “Made of Honor,” counter-programs against “Iron Man” with a female skewing romantic comedy staring Patrick Dempsey.

      There are some other small and not yet producing companies that are also coming out with technology that currently seems to be smaller, cheaper, and more efficient.

      I’ve seen articles about Sunovia Energy (SUNV) that make the company look promising. Contracts with the US Army and NASA for development of materials that are 1/10th the size of FSLR CdTe technology.

      What do you think?
