Why Clean Energy Stocks Jumped Today

Clean energy stocks continued to bounce back on Thursday after some positive results from Wall Street and a drop in interest rates early in the day. The biggest movers were FuelCell Energy (NASDAQ: FCEL) and ReneSola (NYSE: SOL), which were both up as much as 12.3% in early trading. The stocks gave back most of their gains later in the day and were up 1.2% and 0.3%, respectively, at 12:30 p.m. EDT. 

Coming along for the ride were Plug Power (NASDAQ: PLUG), which rose as much as 5%; Bloom Energy (NYSE: BE), which was up 7.4%; and Enphase Energy (NASDAQ: ENPH), with a 7.8% increase at one point. But the three stocks are now down 1.7%, and up only 2.4% and 4.2%, respectively, as I'm writing this.
