First Solar, SolarEdge Technologies, Enphase Energy, Nextpower, and T1 Energy are the five Solar stocks to watch today, according to MarketBeat's stock screener tool. "Solar stocks" are shares of publicly traded companies whose primary business is in the solar energy sector — for example, manufacturers of photovoltaic panels and inverters, project developers and owners, installers, and suppliers of related components and services. Investors buy them to gain exposure to growth in solar power, but they tend to be influenced heavily by government policy, commodity and manufacturing costs, technology changes, and can be more volatile than broader market indices. These companies had the highest dollar trading volume of any Solar stocks within the last several days.
