German solar companies like the election result

As talked about here before, Germany has quite a number of solar power companies whose subsidies were at political risk from a new CDU/CSU and FDP government. Now though that the election results have come through, it seems unlikely that even if Frau Merkel has just pipped Schroeder at the winning post, she will have any room to put through unpopular reforms.

That's why SAG Solarstrom, Solarworld, SolarFabrik, Sunways, Phoenix Sonnenstrom, Solar Millennium, Conergy and Solon can all point to a successful couple of days on the German stockmarket now coming to terms with the election stalemate.
