The economy has entered a stage of worldwide recession and pessimists argue that “renewable energy” is a bubble about to burst. Be it a smart decision to now publish a book in this field or not, “Investing in Renewable Energy: Making Money on Green Chip Stocks”
Author Jeff Siegel (→ read interview) wants to show his readers how to position their portfolio to achieve long-term investment success in the renewable energy field. He aims to explain how to tap into this market early, and logically, in order to capture unparalleled profits.
According to the author, in the next ten to 15 years, the price of renewable energy will fall dramatically, allowing the industry to not only compete on a level playing field, but offer energy at a price that will be cheaper than oil, natural gas, and coal. Jeff Siegel draws his opinion from his position as Managing Editor at Green Chip Stocks, an investment advisory service that focuses on stocks in the renewable energy market.
The book claims to cover the most essential issues surrounding this market and to discuss why Green Chip Stocks should be the catalyst for the first real, social-impacting profit trend of the 21st century. According to the publishing house, “With this book as their guide, investors will quickly discover the tremendous potential of the alternative energy industry and learn how to find companies within it that are poised for a long and lucrative run.”
