Stocks to Watch –Solar stocks, January 15, 2014

Crude oil prices have been surging recently, and there is little sign that the momentum will be slowing down. Every time crude oil reaches these types of elevated levels, it seems that interest in alternative forms of energy also rise. Solar is one type of alternative energy that gets particular attention, and should be on investors' radar going into 2014. 

JinkoSolar announces stock/debt offering, shares -3.1% AH

• On a day when its shares gained 9.4% in regular trading and closed near their 52-week high of $37.98 (made last week), JinkoSolar (JKS) announces it's selling 2.75M shares (current value of $97M) and $100M worth of convertible senior notes due 2019. Underwriters will have 412.5K-share and $15M overallotment options. (PR)
• Jinko is far from the only solar name to take advantage of a massive solar stock rally to raise cash. Following a 3.5M-share offering the company carried out in September, Jinko ended Q3 with $218.7M in cash/equivalents and $392.8M in debt.
• Yesterday, Jinko sold off after announcing it's mulling a sale or spinoff of its downstream (solar project) unit. But shares more than made up for it today.
