Clean-Tech's Surge Masking Troubled Times


SOMETHING very unusual has been happening in the Australia sharemarket. In each of the past three months and for the last quarter as a whole, Australian clean-tech stocks have outperformed the broader index by a ratio of about two to one.
In January, the ACT Australian CleanTech Index, which comprises 77 local stocks with a combined market cap of $8 billion, recorded a 10 per cent gain, double the rise of the Australian sharemarket's benchmark S&P/ASX 200.

Over the last three months, the CleanTech index has enjoyed a gain of 5.5 per cent, compared with a 1.9 per cent loss in the broader index.
