Hi Henry
I enjoy reading your articles on stocks. I am a new investor but would like to follow your advice more currently. How can I do that.
Kind regards

I watched Oxford Club, Matt Bennigan. He described a $10 energy stock that was IPO’d in2018. They have found a way to develop electricity with ceramic tiles. They are currently developed and have sold the units to Walmart. Who is using them to power 4 of their stores. There is no energy cost for them. And I would like to know the name of the stock. PLEASE
You’re most likely talking about Pavegen Systems, a technology company that has developed paving slabs to convert energy from people’s footsteps into small amounts of electrical power. These company is currently not publicly traded.
However, it’s also possible that you are talking about Bloom Energy (NYSE:BE), the developers of Bloom Box.
Bloom box is a solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) power generator. And a SOFC has a solid oxide or ceramic electrolyte. Walmart, eBay and even Google are using Bloom Boxes to generate electricity.
what is the name and symbol of the solar stock that is a film on the window that can be made into usable electricity
The stock you are talking about is Solarwindow Technologies Inc
(OTCMKTS: WNDW) and it’s currently under $10.
However, ClearVue Technologies (OTCMKTS:CVUEF) and Sharp (OTCMKTS:SHCAF) are also developing electric window technologies.
Hope this is what you are looking for?

Does any of these help?
I just saw a segment on a black-owned solar company name We Solar. Are these low costs stocks?
WeSolar Energy, the black-owned community solar energy company, is not a publicly traded company.
