What's Going On With First Solar Stock?

Solar stocks rallied Wednesday, rebounding from recent four-year lows, following Vice President Kamala Harris&#8216;s strong showing against former President Donald Trump at their highly anticipated presidential <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/24/09/40813068/a-flash-poll-shows-kamala-harris-as-the-clear-winner-of-the-debate-against-donald-trump-bu">debate on ABC. </a>
Investors appeared buoyed by Harris's performance during the debate, which signaled potential stability for clean energy policies under a future administration, sparking renewed interest in the solar sector.
The Invesco Solar ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TAN#NYSE">TAN</a>), a benchmark for the solar industry, surged by 3.7% by 11:05 a.m. ET, even as broader market sentiment remained bearish following a concerning August inflation report.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Harris&#8217;s Debate Performance Boosts Clean Energy Optimism</h3>
In a CNN/SSRS poll of 600 registered voters who tuned into the debate, 63% said Harris outperformed Trump, while 37% favored the former president. Prior to the debate, the same group of voters had been evenly split on their expectations of who would deliver a stronger performance.
Coco Zhang, an ESG research analyst at ING Group, noted that Harris is &#8220;likely to preserve the Biden administration's most important climate legacy, emphasizing a more efficient implementation of the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA).&#8221;
Harris has long been a vocal advocate for clean energy. During a 2023 speech at Coppin State University, she reiterated her administration's long-term goals: &#8220;We set an ambitious goal to cut our greenhouse gas emissions in half by 2030 and to reach net-zero emissions by 2050,&#8221; she said.

<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Harris&#8217;s Climate Legacy</h3>
Zhang emphasized that Harris&#8217;s campaign proposals in 2020 included an aggressive $10 trillion investment in decarbonizing the U.S. economy, the establishment of a carbon tax, and a ban on fracking. &#8220;We expect her to propose expanded clean energy spending, with a greater focus on environmental justice and affordable energy,&#8221; said Zhang.
Furthermore, a Harris-led administration would likely enforce stricter regulations on vehicles, oil, and gas industries, aligning with her vision to advance U.S. climate leadership on the global stage, particularly through continued participation in key climate summits like the United Nations Conference of the Parties.

Solar Shares Climb As Harris Gains Momentum Post-Debate Against Trump: 7 Top Gainers In Clean Energy

WIIM

Shares of solar stocks are trading higher. The sector may be reacting to last night's Trump-Harris debate and comments from VP Harris in support of diverse energy sources.

As Vice President Kamala Harris&#8216; odds improve ahead of the 2024 presidential election, observers expect a promising rebound in the U.S. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/solar-energy">residential solar market</a>.
The Invesco Solar ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TAN#NYSE">TAN</a>), a barometer of the solar energy market, gained over 3% in pre-market trading, following the consensus that <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/09/40808499/trump-vs-harris-debates-results-are-in-flash-poll-shows-resounding-majority-pick-vice-president-as-w">Harris won Tuesday&#8217;s debate</a> against Republican nominee Donald Trump.
Roughly 27.67% of the TAN portfolio is comprised of three stocks: Enphase Energy Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ENPH#NASDAQ">ENPH</a>), SolarEdge Technologies Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SEDG#NASDAQ">SEDG</a>), and Sunrun Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RUN#NASDAQ">RUN</a>).
Invesco Solar is down 28.94% for the past year, and about 24% year-to-date. But demand is improving, with industry leaders expecting double-digit growth by 2025.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Solar Stocks Rise On Kamala Harris&#8217; Winning Odds</h2>
Under the Biden administration, U.S. oil production rose to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/government/23/10/35240230/us-is-producing-more-oil-under-biden-than-at-any-point-under-the-trump-administration">new all-time highs</a>. Clean energy stocks also thrived, partially due to the Inflation Reduction Act, which provides crucial tax credits for the sector.
With Harris being a strong supporter of clean energy, the current odds are a positive catalyst for the sector.
Moreover, insights from JPMorgan's Mark Strouse, following the RE+ renewables industry conference, point to potential strong growth—though global challenges persist.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">US Solar Demand Rebounds, Europe Struggles</h2>
The solar giants are optimistic about the U.S. market's recovery, driven by stable utility pricing, lower interest rates, and increased capacity eligible for domestic content tax credits. 
According to Strouse, &#8220;Each company expressed optimism regarding double-digit U.S. market growth in 2025.&#8221; 
However, Europe continues to lag, particularly in the Netherlands, where demand has dropped by 70-80% year-over-year due to uncertainty around net metering policies, he said.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Tax Incentives Boost Enphase, SolarEdge</h2>
Strouse also noted that Enphase and SolarEdge received a significant boost as their microinverters and inverters now qualify for a 36% domestic content ITC adder. 
Enphase expects this to improve margins, while SolarEdge anticipates a neutral impact. Both companies, he said, are optimistic about upcoming storage solutions, despite increased competition from Tesla Inc&#8216;s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) Powerwall 3.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Sunrun, Sunnova Face Financing Shifts</h2>
Meanwhile, Strouse also notes that Sunrun and Sunnova Energy International Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NOVA#NYSE">NOVA</a>) are keeping an eye on financing spreads, which may widen after SunPower Corp&#8216;s (OTCEM: SPWRQ) recent bankruptcy filing.
Nevertheless, with declining base rates, the overall cost of debt for industry leaders is expected to improve over time.
As Europe lags, U.S. solar demand is poised to rise, with Enphase, SolarEdge, and Sunrun leading the charge in a recovering market.

Program will utilize the collective power of solar-plus-battery storage systems during times of peak demand
IRVING, Texas, Sept. 11, 2024 /PRNewswire/ --&nbsp;Vistra (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/VST#NYSE">VST</a>)&nbsp;today announced a new program for homeowners&nbsp;in partnership with Sunrun (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RUN#NASDAQ">RUN</a>) to support grid reliability for Texans.

The company recently reported that it has 53.12 million shares sold short, which is 28.59% of all regular shares that are available for trading.

<h3>Why Short Interest Matters</h3>
Short interest is the number of shares that have been sold short but have not yet been covered or closed out. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-short-a-stock/">Short selling</a> is when a trader sells shares of a company they do not own, with the hope that the price will fall. Traders make money from short selling if the price of the stock falls and they lose if it rises.
Short interest is important to track because it can act as an indicator of market sentiment towards a particular stock. An increase in short interest can signal that investors have become more bearish, while a decrease in short interest can signal they have become more bullish.

A company's peer is another company that has similar characteristics to it, such as industry, size, age, and financial structure. You can find a company's peer group by reading its 10-K, proxy filing, or by doing your own similarity analysis.
According to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/">Benzinga Pro</a>, Sunrun's peer group average for short interest as a percentage of float is 10.19%, which means the company has more short interest than most of its peers.

Sunrun Unusual Options Activity

From a technical perspective, Sunrun (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/run#NASDAQ">RUN</a>) is looking like an interesting pick, as it just reached a key level of support. RUN recently overtook the 20-day moving average, and this suggests a short-term bullish trend.
The 20-day simple moving average is a well-liked trading tool because it provides a look back at a stock&#39;s price over a 20-day period. Additionally, short-term traders find this SMA very beneficial, as it smooths out short-term price trends and shows more trend reversal signals than longer-term moving averages.
Similar to other SMAs, if a stock&#39;s price moves above the 20-day, the trend is considered positive, while price falling below the moving average can signal a downward trend.
<img alt="Moving Average Chart for RUN" class="chart" src="https://staticx-tuner.zacks.com/images/articles/charts/yseop/539/RUN_SMA20.jpeg" style="height:auto; width:100%" title="" />
Shares of RUN have been moving higher over the past four weeks, up 31.5%. Plus, the company is currently a Zacks Rank #3 (Hold) stock, suggesting that RUN could be poised for a continued surge.
The bullish case solidifies once investors consider RUN&#39;s positive earnings estimate revisions. No estimate has gone lower in the past two months for the current fiscal year, compared to 1 higher, while the consensus estimate has increased too.
Investors may want to watch RUN for more gains in the near future given the company&#39;s key technical level and positive earnings estimate revisions.
