I had to reboot my computer as for the 5th day in the past 90 sessions it appears
Trina Solar (TSL) actually trades up. Even more rare
LDK Solar (LDK) is up. I believe the first day in 3 months both are up together...
Trina appears to be going up on disclosure of a stake by hedge fund Citadel - which is actually one of the hedge funds worth it's salt. I'll take any excuse at this time, and savor this +8% move - even if it only lasts for a few minutes. As I've been saying of late the valuation in some of these solar names is now approaching ludicrous levels - they'e been ludicrously overvalued in the past, now ludicrously undervalued.
