I invest in VSLR, but that's when it was very low peg. Do the valuations on it and figure out if you like the current price. I bought when it was 30% lower than now

Also be very careful when you read the 10K of solar firms. Most say they have a "lifetime warranty" which includes both way shipping. That's some pretty questionable valuations and risk that is usually hidden in foot notes. Just IMO

Thanks.
Yeah it's a tough call on valuations... I wholeheartedly buy the long term maturation of the technology (and therefore the industry's share of the energy market), but I've yet to find a good play to get in. Seems like any time one of the solar companies gets some good momentum, money floods in, valuations shoot up, and expectations become daunting for that company. But maybe the long term growth is worth it if VSLR has good industry coverage? I will look into it!

^yes that kind of sketchy stuff as well re:warranty and stuff. Not a ton of mature/trustworthy names in the space yet.
