Wow, ouch.
My girlfriend doesn't like investing, but she did start a small account this year or late last year. She is 100% invested in solar because "it's the future". When I ask what specifically she's invested in, she can't even (or doesn't want to) name the funds. I wish I could convince her to diversify. I've had such a great run this year, and she's down for the year.
I don't own any solar ETFS. I did last year. Profits this year are from swing trading individual solar stocks. It's my best sector the past 12 months except outdoors stocks. I have six solar tickers and one of them is down YTD (my entry prices). They got smoked in FEB-MAR and that is when I bought most of my current shares. Some of them are the future, and a few of them will be devoured by the well run ones. Solar is the future, and so is EV. Now go buy six random tickers in either and lose 2/3rds of your money.
