&lt;p style="margin:0in 0in 0pt;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Times New Roman;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:9pt;"&gt;Starting back in December 2006, I started writing about the next &lt;b&gt;BIG THING&lt;/b&gt;.&lt;span style="mso-spacerun:yes;"&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;And have updated it for you continuously ever since. &lt;span style="mso-spacerun:yes;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;Happily I started on this theme right before the 2007 boom in solar stocks.&lt;span style="mso-spacerun:yes;"&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;Since I eat my own cooking, so to speak, I was able to capture some doubles and more in companies like &lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="color:#339966;"&gt;First Solar (FSLR)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;, &lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="color:#339966;"&gt;Suntech Power (STP)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt; and a couple others.&lt;span style="mso-spacerun:yes;"&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;Hope you were too.&lt;span style="mso-spacerun:yes;"&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;That solar boom is over, for the moment -- a good time to nibble, with today&amp;rsquo;s oversupply of solar but other subsectors of the greater clean green energy universe are now having their day in the sun (pun intended).&lt;span style="mso-spacerun:yes;"&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="color:#993300;"&gt;&amp;ldquo;Smart grid&amp;rdquo;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt; stocks, those that help reduce, measure and regulate power usage have recently been hot and I&amp;rsquo;ve long recommended &lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="color:#339966;"&gt;EnerNOC (ENOC)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt; and &lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="color:#339966;"&gt;Comverge (COMV&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;). &lt;span style="color:#ff6600;"&gt;&lt;span style="mso-spacerun:yes;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;b&gt;Disclaimer!&lt;/b&gt;&lt;span style="mso-spacerun:yes;"&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;I own small portions of both but can and do change positions without notice.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="mso-spacerun:yes;"&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;And that&amp;rsquo;s even before &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:9pt;"&gt;America&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:9pt;"&gt; really starts to modernize our national power grid.&lt;span style="mso-spacerun:yes;"&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;Wind and natural gas stocks have been doing well now as have battery and other storage technology after &lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="color:#339966;"&gt;General Motors&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt; threw out that figure of over 200 miles per gallon coming with their Chevy Volt.&lt;span style="mso-spacerun:yes;"&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;I did publish a decently all-encompassing list back on &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:9pt;"&gt;June 6th, 2008&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:9pt;"&gt;, right in the midst of the 17-month downtrend and asked you to &lt;span style="color:blue;"&gt;&amp;ldquo;print, keep handy and archive&amp;rdquo; &lt;/span&gt;it for future use.&lt;span style="mso-spacerun:yes;"&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;Last Wednesday, I listed a few additional technology companies which have one foot in clean green and before that, on September 18&lt;sup&gt;th&lt;/sup&gt;, I posted a winnowed down list of my&lt;span style="mso-spacerun:yes;"&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;December 2006 list of about 80 clean green companies outperforming for possible near term trades.&lt;span style="mso-spacerun:yes;"&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;And of course a couple times recently I&amp;rsquo;ve again recommended that new clean green global mutual fund that Steve Leuthold and crew are now offering, which I recommended to you just back in July, that&amp;rsquo;s &lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="color:#339966;"&gt;Leuthold Clean Green Tech (symbol LGCTX)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="margin:0in 0in 0pt;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:9pt;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Times New Roman;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="margin:0in 0in 0pt;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Times New Roman;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:9pt;color:maroon;"&gt;I CONTINUE TO BELIEVE THIS IS SHOULD BE #1 THEME FOR LONG TERM INVESTORS&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:9pt;"&gt; and thus let me pound the table again today (even though it&amp;rsquo;s not Friday when I&amp;rsquo;ve gotten in the habit of giving you &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:9pt;color:green;font-family:&amp;#39;Arial Black&amp;#39;;mso-bidi-font-family:&amp;#39;Arial Black&amp;#39;;"&gt;YOUR CLEAN GREEN WEEKEND UPDATE&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Times New Roman;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:9pt;"&gt;; I&amp;rsquo;m a man of routine my friends say.).&lt;span style="mso-spacerun:yes;"&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;Just want to point out that holding a bunch of clean green stocks is still working well.&lt;span style="mso-spacerun:yes;"&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;What I&amp;rsquo;m finding is that some good news item seems to pop every few days about one of the stocks in my own IRA portfolio, almost totally composed of small lots of lots of clean green companies, and/or also for many of those stocks on my larger shopping list of clean green.&lt;span style="mso-spacerun:yes;"&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;My IRA is up over +30% this year and I&amp;rsquo;m only 50% invested! &lt;span style="mso-spacerun:yes;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;(Note! &lt;span style="mso-spacerun:yes;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;I&amp;rsquo;d be much less invested if this was my fund management money.&lt;span style="mso-spacerun:yes;"&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;Like monies that are designated to only go into sector funds or that only can be moved around minimally or that has no clean green choices, again like the money management I do for others.)&lt;span style="mso-spacerun:yes;"&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;Anyway, whether it be wind, geothermal, energy storage, battery technology, fuel cells, etc. etc, whatever, there are lots of clean green &lt;span style="mso-spacerun:yes;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;niches, I&amp;rsquo;d buy &amp;lsquo;em all and cover all bases.&lt;span style="mso-spacerun:yes;"&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;Yesterday one US wind company got a big contract from a Chinese firm and popped +10% (in a ragged stock market), that&amp;rsquo;s happened numerous times as China pushes clean green too.&lt;span style="mso-spacerun:yes;"&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;Back a week ago a reader sent me an email that three of his very low priced clean greens were all up nicely that day when he checked.&lt;span style="mso-spacerun:yes;"&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;I hold one of them so I won&amp;rsquo;t mention that name but two others I used to hold, not right now but maybe I&amp;rsquo;ll buy them back on weakness down the road, were &lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="color:#339966;"&gt;Medis Tech (symbol MDTL)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt; up +24% and &lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="color:#339966;"&gt;Hydrogenics (HYGS)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt; up +13%.&lt;span style="mso-spacerun:yes;"&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="color:maroon;"&gt;Schwartz View:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;span style="mso-spacerun:yes;"&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;Bottom line, pull out my original shopping list of clean green, which I&amp;rsquo;ve run in various and updated forms numerous times over the last couple of years, review it and then &lt;span style="text-decoration:underline;"&gt;buy small amounts of lots of clean green stocks&lt;/span&gt;.&lt;span style="mso-spacerun:yes;"&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;That way when a breakthrough occurs, wherever you&amp;rsquo;ll benefit while the rising tide carries all ships (almost all) over time.&lt;span style="mso-spacerun:yes;"&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;That was my original game plan for all of us and remains so and continues working nicely.&lt;span style="mso-spacerun:yes;"&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;By the way I&amp;rsquo;d buy &lt;b&gt;BEFORE&lt;/b&gt; the scheduled December Copenhagen global conference.&lt;span style="mso-spacerun:yes;"&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;The rationale again is the world is going clean green because it has to.&lt;span style="mso-spacerun:yes;"&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;We all know that.&lt;span style="mso-spacerun:yes;"&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;Going clean green creates new jobs which we desperately need, cuts down on oil money somehow finding its way into terrorists hands and respects and protects Mother Earth.&lt;span style="mso-spacerun:yes;"&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;And when we forget we have to go green for a brief moment, some report about global warming comes out and reminds us..&lt;span style="mso-spacerun:yes;"&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:9pt;"&gt;China&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:9pt;"&gt; knows it, &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:9pt;"&gt;Europe&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:9pt;"&gt; knows it and &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:9pt;"&gt;America&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:9pt;"&gt;, our scientists, our government, our businesses (who wants rules in place so they can move forward with capital spending plans), our venture capitalists know it and our everyday Americans &lt;span style="mso-spacerun:yes;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;know it.&lt;span style="mso-spacerun:yes;"&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;All except for the pure unadulterated capitalists holdout contingent who won&amp;rsquo;t admit such because in their blindered view &lt;span style="color:blue;"&gt;&amp;ldquo;it hurts business.&amp;rdquo;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="mso-spacerun:yes;"&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="mso-spacerun:yes;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;Let me say again:&lt;span style="mso-spacerun:yes;"&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;There is a &lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="color:#993300;"&gt;critical mass&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt; for going &lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="color:green;"&gt;Code Green&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt; and a critical mass means there&amp;rsquo;s no stopping it, maybe something, some event, can hold it back for a time, but there&amp;rsquo;s no stopping it.&lt;span style="mso-spacerun:yes;"&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="margin:0in 0in 0pt;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:9pt;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Times New Roman;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
