What the numbers say

First Solar is a semiconductors name in the information technology sector. Over the past year it returned -24.1%, against -22.6% over three months and -15.1% over one. It trades 21.3% below its 200-day average, so recent moves have not repaired the longer downtrend. Annualized volatility of 54.8% is very high, position sizing matters more here than the ranking does.

Its worst peak-to-trough decline over the year was -45.9%, and it has traded a median $402M a day, the figure that decides whether a position can actually be entered and exited at posted prices. Its daily moves correlate 0.43 with the S&P 500 proxy, so it has been moving substantially on its own.
