Bloom Energy, SunPower Corporation, and Plug Power Stocks Popped Wednesday

Alternative energy stocks were hot yesterday, and The Wall Street Journal may be the reason for it. In Wednesday trading, shares of fuel cell pioneer and future hydrogen supply chain kingpin Plug Power (NASDAQ: PLUG) jumped more than 4% in early trading before giving back much of its gains. Rival fuel cell operator Bloom Energy (NYSE: BE) closed up 10%, while solar power system producer SunPower Corporation (NASDAQ: SPWR) closed on Wednesday up 9% over the previous day's close.
