Losers
Enphase Energy (ENPH) may bounce back from a $100 support line. The energy supplier fell after SolarEdge (SEDG) said its customer filed for bankruptcy. SEDG stock is not a buy. The firm cannot collect the $11.4 million owed. Furthermore, the stock price is now $26.40. It spent $30 million to buy shares at $60 earlier this year.
The buyback proved wasteful.
SolarEdge is now issuing debt.
