Solar stocks fall as rising rates hit Enphase Energy, First Solar, and Sunrun demand.

Solar stocks including Enphase Energy, First Solar, and Sunrun dropped between 4% to 5% following the Federal Reserve's recent interest rate hike, which raised borrowing costs. Enphase Energy, reliant on residential solar financing, is particularly affected as higher rates reduce homeowner demand for solar systems. This sector-wide selloff contrasts with a relatively stable broader market, highlighting the sensitivity of solar companies to macroeconomic factors rather than company-specific news. Investors are advised to be cautious and watch the Invesco Solar ETF for further direction, as the sector's outlook depends heavily on future interest rate movements.
