Solaredge!! Ready for a rebound?Solar stocks have taken quite a hit. There are several reasons for that, the biggest is high interest rates. Solar companies (installers) often sell solar by having the end-customer finance the up front cost of the system. When interest rates sky-rocketed post-covid, that made it a lot harder to sell solar for many solar companies, the ones who built their entire business model around financed solar. Several solar companies went belly up who owed Solaredge a lot of money. This pushed the stock down even further.
Solaredge is #1 or #2 in many market segments GLOBALLY. They make a good product and are constantly improving it.
If the US removes the tax credit for residential solar, which it looks like it will, the stock will take another tumble but I do not expect it'll ever go below $16/share again.
My best guess would be that the stock is strong the rest of 2025, while there's a huge rush the get as much residential solar installed as possible before the U.S. residential tax credit (25D) expires, then 2026 will be a slow year, then democrats take over Congress and re-enact the solar tax credit which would send the stock back into the $300/share range. We'll see :)
