On July 2, First Solar fell 5.15% in regular trading, trading at $219.78/share, with turnover of $189 million. The decline came amid a broader pullback in the solar sector following a significant rally, compounded by systematic selling pressure across the semiconductor space.
On the news front, the solar sector experienced a sharp retreat after an extended rally. The UBS Solar Index had accumulated approximately 40% in year-to-date gains, and First Solar had previously touched an 18-year intraday high of $310.42, intensifying short-term profit-taking pressure. Simultaneously, the broader semiconductor sector saw widespread declines, with Marvell Technology falling 10.52%, Micron Technology down 5.89%, Intel dropping 5.72%, Advanced Micro Devices declining 5.52%, and NVIDIA losing 2.15%, dragging down individual stock performance across the sector.
