First Solar and T1 Energy shares climbed after the Trump administration imposed tariffs and price floors on imported solar products to support U.S. manufacturing.

First Solar stock continued to surge early Friday after President Donald Trump imposed minimum import prices and tariffs on polysilicon, a key component of solar panels and base material for semiconductors. After release of the order late Thursday, Wells Fargo hiked its price target on FSLR stock to 313 from 300, keeping an overweight rating. The analysts said that the order, based on section 232 of the Trade Expansion Act, would be even more favorable for First Solar than anticipated.

First Solar (NASDAQ:FSLR) shares climbed around 8% in premarket trading after US President Donald Trump signed an executive order introducing a 15% tariff alongside minimum import price requirements for polysilicon and its downstream products. The measures, implemented under Section 232 of the Trade Expansion Act, will take effect on 4 December 2026.

Solar stocks are showing a clear technical shift, breaking above a well-defined downtrend after more than five years of sustained pressure.
