Credit Suisse demonstrates once again why analyst estimates and ratings are for the most part worthless.  Rarely are analysts ahead of the curve and Credit Suisse is no exception.  They are out this morning maintaining their Neutral and Outperform ratings, but cutting price targets well after these stocks have plummeted to new lows.  I believe solar stocks are close to bottoming out, based on some minor capitulation moves seen yesterday.  Many are ripping higher again today, particularly SOLF, CSIQ and YGE. Here they are (hat tip to Street Insider):
