RUN

Analysts are closely watching renewable energy companies like First Solar, NextEra, and Enphase as potential market movers post-election. Depending on the election outcome, these companies could experience a relief rally or face uncertainty. A Democrat sweep or Trump/Harris win with a split Congress could benefit renewables, while a Trump victory with a split Congress could particularly favor First Solar due to potential tariffs. Sunrun and Sunnova could also benefit from a split Congress, but a Republican sweep might delay investor enthusiasm.
