The Invesco Solar ETF (TAN) and the iShares Global Clean Energy ETF (ICLN) have tumbled more than 9% and 10%, respectively. While Trump's platform says he wants to unleash production from all sources, the document specifically calls out oil, gas and nuclear. How voters perceive the two candidates' energy policies could end up playing an influential role in the outcome of the election altogether. While the election will bring short-term volatility, the solar industry remains well positioned for long-term growth, according to Bank of America. About 25% of oil and 10% of natural gas production is on federal land and waters, according to the bank.

The utilities sector is living in the shadows of mega-cap tech, but a power player name is emerging — and it's toting year-to-date gains of more than 40%. Constellation Energy , headquartered in Baltimore, is the top winner in the utilities sector in 2024, with NRG Energy in a distant second place with a 22.7% advance. Indeed, the utilities sector and real estate are the two laggards of the S & P 500 , down about 1% and 3.5% in 2024, respectively.

First Solar is well-positioned to fend off growing clean energy competition, according to Wolfe Research. Analyst Steve Fleishman upgraded the solar stock to an outperform rating in a note to clients Friday, citing an improving long-term outlook. Fleishman set a $170 price target on the stock, suggesting shares can rally nearly 30% from Thursday's close. The stock has already surged more than 50% this year and 7% this month as investors set their sights on clean energy alternatives. Fleishman also views First Solar as a "uniquely positioned" clean energy stock in a rising-rate environment.
A rising rate environment could spell trouble for solar stocks Sunrun and Sunnova Energy in the near term, according to Wolfe Research. "Headwinds from the interest rate spike on financing costs and valuation are tough to ignore despite strong demand growth from IRA and rising utility rates," he wrote in two separate notes to clients Wednesday. Fleishman said both stocks are among the most exposed to a rising rate environment given their reliance on consistent access to capital. "We are still big believers in the demand tailwinds for the business from the benefits in IRA and from pricing headroom afforded by rising utility rates, which we expect to continue moving higher," he said. Shares of both Sunrun and Sunnova are down more than 40% this year.
