Update 05/16:
SunPower Corp. (NASDAQ: SPWRA) manufactures a variety of solar PV products using polysilicon wafers. The company has had its ups and downs in the past year, but is suffering now from margin compression and a pushing out of orders to the second half of the year. The company has been a solid low-cost provider of polysilicon-based PV solar devices and, even though it is struggling now, it’s future should brighten as demand for PV solar grows. http://suprastock.blogspot.com/2010/05/ten-companies-that-cou...
