Just last month, markbudge1 tapped the stock as a potent bargain opportunity:

The inverter market is growing and so will Power-One. It has a high ROI and ROE and little debt. Once good news hits, it will skyrocket.

In fact, Power-One sports a particularly paltry P/E of 4. That represents a clear discount to much larger rivals like Emerson (16), GE (12), and Siemens (11).

CAPS member jed71 elaborates on the Power-One bull case:

I am definitely not what you would call a "greenie", but this technology is here to stay. The more efficient it becomes, the more I believe it will become a part of daily life. ...

Here you have a company that makes power inverters that convert DC energy from a solar or wind farm, and make it into usable AC energy on a power grid. These converters are highly efficient (from what I have read) and actually do a nice job reducing power conversion losses. I recently read that they have / are continuing to design commercial models that increases efficiency from large solar / wind farms. Pretty neat stuff.

The financials aren't bad at all either, considering this is a "green tech" company (which tend to be on the pricey side). ... With operating margins approaching 25%, I am thinking it might be time to put some real money into this one.
