Solarfun Power Holdings Co., Ltd. (NASDAQ: SOLF) Gets An Official Price Target


solarfun_logo.jpgSolarfun Power Holdings Co., Ltd. (NASDAQ: SOLF)keeps advancing to new 52-week highs supported by strong trading volumes as investors got caught on the idea of this stock reaching $13 per share in the near future.
The euphoric buying pressure formed after analysts at Oppenheimer & Co. named the company one of the most promising Chinese solar businesses. The stock has gained significant bullish sentiment which can be clearly seen from option trading data. For Wednesday, at 11 times the daily turnover, 27 thousand options were traded with 23 thousand of them being call options which allow buying the stock at a specified price.

The analysts based their decision to raise price target upon increased demand for solar power products which has been observed during the 4th quarter 2009. Solarfun was one of the most potent solar companies to benefit from this increase.

With strong balance sheet, penetration of the most potential solar markets in Germany, China and United States and technology that's ready to boom the company is only troubled by historically red bottom line. Their cash resources haven't got wasted though and recent sale of assets set the company up with resources needed for expansion.

Whether the share price will reach the promised $13 in a week or a month it looks like a guaranteed profit from the current point. The market didn't take it for granted though as 5% correction hit the overbought stock on Thursday.
