INVESTING IN ALTERNATIVE ENERGY STOCKS 📈 3 Renewable Energy Stocks for 2017!

If you are looking to invest in renewable energy, alternative energy or clean technology stocks in 2017 here are three stocks you should have on your watch list. As the technology surrounding alternative and renewable energy evolves and the price for power generation decreases the market share for renewable and clean energy will grow. Some companies solely rely on alternative and renewable energy like wind, solar, hydroelectric and geothermal. Other companies rely on a blend of clean energy production as well as conventional energy production. MY EBOOK! http://www.ryanoscribner.com/stock-trading As you may know, the current administration is not supporting of the subsidizing of renewable and alternative energy. There is a lot of talk about burning more coal. As a result, I don’t think investing in renewable technologies is a good short term investment but long term I could see them taking significant market share. What makes these a great long term investment as well is the fact that two of the companies on this list pay an attractive dividend! 3 Alternative/Renewable Energy Stocks to Watch in 2017 1.

The stock fell to $14.50 a share post Trump election but has since rallied to $18 a share in February of this year. This stock has an attractive dividend and a price to earnings ratio of 29. 2.
