[On the Move] - Wednesday, May 22, 10:19 AM Talks designed to ease the solar panel trade spat between China and the EU by agreeing on export prices have failed, Xinhua reports. Solar shares are broadly lower: STP -18.7%, JASO -3.4%, TSL -2.3%, YGE -2.5%, SPWR -2.5%, LDK -7.3%, JKS -4.1%, FSLR -2.5%. Comment! [Energy, Tech, On the Move]
- Tuesday, May 21, 12:43 PM Another driver for the run in U.S. solar stocks today is a big move in Chinese solar stocks overnight, particularly Hareon Solar Technology, which jumped to its 10% daily limit on speculation that the U.S. and China are seeking to resolve a dispute over trade in solar-energy equipment that could lead to soaring tariffs: JA Solar (JASO +5%), China Sunergy (CSUN +5.2%), Ascent Solar (ASTI +32%), Spire (SPIR +9.6%), Trina Solar (TSL +10.3%), Hanwha Solarone (HSOL +11.5%), Suntech Power (STP +20.5%), ReneSola (SOL +8.1%), LDK Solar (LDK +10.3%). 2 Comments [Global & FX, On the Move, Tech, U.S. Economy]
- Tuesday, May 21, 9:21 AM Solar stocks took off in response to JA Solar's results yesterday, and they're surging premarket in response to Yingli's guidance hike today. Chalk it up to both heavy short interests, and growing optimism capacity cuts and rising non-European demand can put the troubled industry on more stable footing. Lux Research predicts solar's supply glut will evaporate, but not until 2015. TSL +9.1%. JASO +14.6%. LDK +9.8%. FSLR +1.6%. CSIQ +6.2%. JKS +6.5%. SOL +11.3%. Comment! [Tech, On the Move]

Losers: FSGI -46%. CIMT -10%. CUK -7%. NBG -6%. CCL -6%. Comment! [On the Move] - Monday, May 20, 10:45 AM JA Solar (JASO +34.4%) is now skying higher following its Q1 beat and full-year shipment guidance reiteration, and is providing fresh fuel for the colossal solar stock rally that started last fall (TAN +4.4%). TSL +13.3%. DQ +20%. LDK +9.9%. JKS +10.3%. SCTY +11.6%. SOL +9.4%. CSUN +8.9%. SPWR +4.9%. ASTI +9.4%. YGE +8.4%. CSIQ +6.6%. The fact 38% of JA's Q1 module shipments went to Japan (a market with higher ASPs/margins than China) is likely going over well with investors. 6 Comments [Tech, On the Move, Earnings]

Losers: XNPT -26%. NBG -8%. Comment! [On the Move] - Friday, May 17, 11:04 AM SolarCity (SCTY +15.3%) won't take a breather.

"We hope [the deal] sends a signal that solar is a stable and reliable asset to invest in," CEO Lyndon Rive tells Bloomberg. Meanwhile, some Chinese solar names are up following a rally in Shanghai: YGE +4.1%. LDK +5.1%. SOL +6.1%. JASO +3.5%. CSIQ +2.5%. Comment! [Tech, On the Move]

Also: LDK (LDK +8%) has filed its 2012 20-F. (yesterday) (Monday) 3 Comments [Tech, On the Move]
- Wednesday, May 15, 9:17 AM SunPower (SPWR) +7.5% after providing strong guidance ahead of today's analyst day, which starts at 10AM ET (webcast). SunPower expects Q2 revenue of $550M-$600M and EPS of $005-$0.15, above a consensus of $513.3M and -$0.02. 2013 guidance (possibly conservative) is for revenue of $2.5B-$2.6B and EPS of $0.60-$0.80 vs. a consensus of $2.55B and $0.64. Gross margin is expected to fall to 14%-16% in Q2 from Q1's 22.7%, and total 15%-17% in 2013. 2013 free cash flow of $100M-$200 is expected. Shares now +57% since SunPower posted a huge Q1 beat on May 2. FSLR +2.5%. WFR +1.9%. LDK +1.5%. TSL +3.5%. SOL +2.7%. (slides) Comment! [Tech, On the Move, Earnings]

U.S. solar installer/electricity seller SolarCity delivered mixed Q1 results and reiterated its full-year guidance yesterday afternoon. (yesterday's gains) Comment! [Tech, On the Move]
- Monday, May 13, 11:27 AM SolarCity (SCTY +18.6%) is skyrocketing ahead of today's Q1 report - does someone know something? - and many other solar peers are also doing pretty well (TAN +4.5%). SOL +9.8%. CSIQ +11.6%. WFR +8%. LDK +9.3%. JASO +5.4%. SPWR +4.8%. FSLR +4.5%. GTAT +5.2%. JKS +7.9%. Short interests for many industry names remain sky-high: SolarCity had 16.6% of its float shorted as of April 30. SunPower was at 29.9%, First Solar 33.4%, and GT Advanced 34.8%. 4 Comments [Tech, On the Move]
- Friday, May 10, 12:29 PM Volatile/well-shorted solar stocks are ripping higher (TAN +5.4%) to close out a week in which the EU imposed long-expected tariffs on Chinese solar panel imports. TSL +10%. CSIQ +16.1%. STP +9.1%. SCTY +8.6%. SOL +8.3%. JASO +7.5%. FSLR +4.6%. JKS +9.4%. LDK +3.4%. SPWR +7.8% A Reuters column today notes the pace of module price declines is expected to slow, as weaker players are forced out and U.S./emerging markets demand gradually soaks up excess capacity. 4 Comments [Tech, On the Move]
- Wednesday, May 8, 2:43 PM The EU plans to impose anti-dumping tariffs averaging 47.6%, and going as high as 67.9%, on Chinese solar panel imports by June 6, a "commerce official" tells Bloomberg. Several Chinese solar names are seeing moderate declines - investors have already been pricing in the impact of tariffs. JKS -3.8%. TSL -3.1%. YGE -2.9%. LDK -1.6%. CSIQ -4%. European trade group EU ProSun estimated in September Chinese firms control 80% of the local market. Additional tariffs could arrive later this year thanks to a solar subsidy investigation. Comment! [Tech, On the Move]
- Tuesday, May 7, 10:43 AM Solar stocks head south (TAN -3.3%) in sympathy with First Solar, which is giving back some of this year's huge gains in response to a Q1 miss, a margin drop, and pipeline visibility concerns. SCTY -8.1%. LDK -6.2%. JASO -5.9%. SPWR -4.8%. CSIQ -4.3%. WFR -3.8%. YGE -3.5%. TSL -3.4%. GAT -3.1%. JKS -6.2%. The declines come a few days after a rally triggered by SunPower's strong Q1.
