Wilderhill New Energy Global Innovation Index (NEX)


Everyone knows the legend of Warren Buffett. EnergyTechStocks.com believes that 10 years from now, Josh Landess will be clean energy’s investing legend.

Landess co-manages an index, not a fund, a distinct advantage for investors in this age of Wall Street scandals. As co-manager of the Wilderhill New Energy Global Innovation Index (NEX), Landess probably is not only the most thorough source of information on clean energy stocks but also the most objective. That he almost never speaks with the media is another plus because it shows he isn’t inclined to tout a stock the way virtually every TV talking head routinely does.

Landess is as green as Al Gore. He scours the world for intriguing firms, keeping track of over 500 companies at any one time. The Wilderhill New Energy Global Innovation Index includes nearly 90 outfits traded on two dozen different stock exchanges.
