What are some publicly traded current solar companies that are booming and at what rate?
Well, any answer to the above?
Any update to the claim the solar industry is booming? At least FSLR is now at $26.69 while the market's at all time highs.
In the meantime, we've had Suntech go bankrupt and Bosch exiting the solar business.
Any update on this?
Besides the above, now it looks like LDK is in trouble with this below:

LDK Solar Ltd. (LDK)’s failure to fully pay notes this week has raised the prospect of China’s second solar-industry failure this year as the company needs to repay a loan 10 times larger by June.
The world’s second-biggest maker of wafers that convert sunlight into power couldn’t repay all of the $23.8 million of dollar-denominated convertible bonds that matured on April 15, according to a company statement yesterday. Before the delinquency, its 2014 yuan notes dropped below 50 yuan per 100 yuan face value, according to data compiled by Bloomberg.
