First Solar is trading 4.1% up at $179.16 as solar-sector selling eases and investors buy the dip after a sharp two-day decline.
- The rebound follows a 10.32% decline on September 24.
- BMO upgraded First Solar to Outperform, citing better potential U.S. module pricing; patent-strategy developments and analyst target cuts remain overhangs.
- Broader equities are only modestly higher, making sector-specific recovery the stronger explanation.
