Solar stocks are finally basking in the sun once again. New subsidies from key markets like China and Japan, as well as low module pricing, have taken hold over the last year or so. Plus, the number of PV installations has surged. As a result, solar stocks like Canadian Solar�(CSIQ) and First Solar (FSLR)�have been�some of the best names, with the industry gaining about 141% this year.
But for CSIQ stock investors,�the sun is shining even brighter — to the tune of a nearly 800% gain in 2013 so far. And yet the story at CSIQ continues to get better. The solar stock continues rack up new contracts, sell more modules and cut costs. All in all, that�� resulted in CSIQ reporting some of its best earnings in years.
So with all solar stocks looking strong and the situation at CSIQ continuing to get even better, Canadian Solar stock may be one of the best long-term buys for investors.

Advisors' Opinion:- [By Roberto Pedone]
EMCORE (EMKR), together with its subsidiaries, provides compound semiconductor-based products for the broadband, fiber optics, satellite, and solar power markets. This stock closed up 1% to $4.09 in Tuesday's trading session.
Tuesday's Range: $4.00-$4.14
52-Week Range: $3.50-$5.62
Tuesday's Volume: 187,000
Three-Month Average Volume: 103,744From a technical perspective, EMKR trended modestly higher here back above its 50-day moving average of $4.03 with above-average volume. This stock has been making higher lows over the last three months each time it has pulled back, which is a bullish technical sign. This spike to the upside on Tuesday is starting to push shares of EMKR within range of triggering a big breakout trade. That trade will hit if EMRK manages to take out some key near-term overhead resistance levels at $4.16 to $4.20 and then above $4.22 with high volume.
Traders should now look for long-biased trades in EMKR as long as it's trending above some key near-term support levels at $3.90 to $3.86 or above more support at $3.78 and then once it sustains a move or close above those breakout levels with volume that hits near or above 103,744 shares. If that breakout gets underway soon, then EMKR will set up to re-test or possibly take out its next major overhead resistance levels at $4.53 to its 200-day moving average of $4.65, or even $5 to $5.30.
