TOP-Solargewinner nach der großen Krise
Warum? Da noch niemand im Denken aus dem eigenen Kopf herausgekommen, solch Sehertum nichts als Einbildung u. Selbstbespiegelung ist! Sehen kann im Prinzip jeder nur sich selbst, der Rest ist Spekulation aus Erfahrung... In einem aber hast du sicher richtig "gesehen", da es ja offensichtlich ist: ich hab mich für Solar nur vor kurzem mal wg. dem abnormen Kurseinbruch bei Phoenix, der mir irrational vorkam. Daher kaufte ich unter 3, verkaufte dann über 4 und hab nun just for fun ne kleine Position bei 3,5 abgestaubt, mit SL bei 2,7. Solarwerte sind mir ansonsten aber viel zu uneindeutig, insbesondere im fernen China. Wer da Entwicklungen "zu sehen" vermeint, na ja, der zockt nur blind, egal wieviel Wissen er sich einbilden o. angelesen zu haben meinen mag - meine letztlich irrelevante Ansicht dazu.
Tragisch sind dann nur Fälle wie oben geschildert, die es in unserem Land aber wg. einer narzisstischen Gesellschaftsbasis massenweise gibt, was nur nie mit öffentlicher Aufmerksamkeit bedacht wird, leider, da es sich so weiter wiederholt. Ich kann jeden davor nur warnen, aus menschlicher Anteilnahme, nicht um mich als neunmalschlau zu profilieren!
Der enorme Abverkauf gestern und die beschleunigte Abwärtsbewegung deuten auf einen möglichen finalen Selloff hin. Diese Hypothese wird genährt durch das erreichen einer wichtigen Unterstützungszone, die sich aus der Horizontalen bei ca 25,50 $ mit der SMA 200 bildet. Hinzu kommt, dass sich der Wert ungewöhnlich weit von der SMA 28 entfernt hat. Die überverkaufte Situation sollte nicht genug Triebkraft für das Unterbieten der SMA 200 beinhalten und somit ist hier mit einem - zumindest kurzfristig gültigem - Trendwechsel zu rechnen.
Wichtige zu nennende Marken sind 11,47 und 11,00 $. Fallen wir unter letztgenannten Wert, dann wären Kursverluste bis ca. 8 $ denkbar.
Ich rechne auch hier - aufgrund der überverkauften Situation - damit, dass die Marke hält.
aber die WKN ist nicht A1YCMM, das sind die alten, die neuen bei 16, das sind A1YDED, da haben sich Aktiencheck vertan

Nun scheint das Gröbste überstanden - ist wohl wirklich so, dass man in diesem Fall nicht unbedingt von Yingli auf andere schließen kann.
Trina wieder deutlich über 12$ .....
Die Q1-Guidance lag bei einer Modulabsatzmenge von etwa 615 MW (- 25% zu Q4) und jetzt werden wohl 530 MW raus kommen (- 35% zu Q4). Wir reden also von einer Abweichung von ca. 85 MW bzw. einem Umsatz von ca. 54 Mio. $. Somit wird Yingli einen Q1-Umsatz von um die 435 Mio. $ generieren (Q1 2013: 432 Mio. $).
Allzu problematisch finde ich die Yingli-Meldung jetzt nicht. Zumal ein Grund dafür ist, dass es in Algerien zu Problemen gekommen ist (da geht es im Gesamten immerhin um etwas über 200 MW), die mittlerweile aus der Welt geschafft sind laut Yingli. Dass in China aktuell nicht viel läuft ist eh schon länger bekannt. Ist wohl der zweite Grund.
Für mich ist das alles recht nachvollziehbar und für den Markt wohl auch.
Dass Yingli ihre Q1-Bruttomargenguidance leicht erhöht hat überrascht mich, aber das dürfte daher kommen, dass der China-Absatz in Q1 unter den Erwartungen gelegen ist und somit der Q1-Durchschnittsmodulverkaufspreis automatisch etwas höher liegt als von Yingli erwartet wurde.
Alle China-Solaris haben sich aktuell wieder etwas aufgerappelt. Nicht nur Trina.
Ob wirklich das Gröbste überstanden ist ?? Keine Ahnung, ich bin aber sehr skeptisch, denn so richtig hat der Gesamtmarkt nun wirklich noch nicht konsolidiert. Wenn in den USA die China-Solaris in diesem Jahr wirklich ihre Modulpreise um 20% erhöhen müssen so wie Greentech Media das prognostiziert, dann könnte es weiter ungemütlich werden.
Die Aktien der China-Solaris waren und sind unberechenbar.

Trina Solar Updates First Quarter 2014 Guidance
CHANGZHOU, China, April 11, 2014
CHANGZHOU, China, April 11, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Trina Solar Limited (NYSE: TSL) ("Trina Solar" or the "Company"), a global leader in photovoltaic (PV) modules, solutions and services, today announced that the Company is updating its guidance for the first quarter of 2014 based on preliminary financial data.
For the first quarter, the Company currently estimates its solar module shipments to be in the range of 540 MW to 570 MW, including 20 MW to 30 MW for its downstream projects, as compared to the previous guidance of 670 MW to 700 MW, including 20 MW to 30 MW for its downstream projects. This is primarily due to a temporary decrease in shipments to the EU pending agreement on a new minimum import price pursuant to the adjustment mechanism in the price undertaking. The Company expects shipments to European markets to increase with the finalization of the terms.
Additionally, for the first quarter of 2014, the Company currently estimates that the overall gross margin will be between 18% to 20%, compared to the Company's previous guidance of mid-teens in percentage terms. The increase in gross margin is due to improved ASP of modules and a gross margin in the high-teens from the sale of the Company's 50 MW Wuwei project.
The Company reiterates its full year 2014 module shipment guidance of 3.6 GW to 3.8 GW, of which 400 MW to 500 MW of PV modules are expected to be shipped to downstream projects. The Company expects to complete construction of between 400 MW and 500 MW in downstream PV projects during 2014.
"We remain confident that ongoing market demand for our products is strong, and that we will be able to maintain our expected level of growth in 2014 as planned," commented Mr. Jifan Gao, chairman and chief executive officer of Trina Solar. "However, given the temporary decrease in Q1 shipments to the European markets pending the finalization of the price undertaking adjustment, we are updating our guidance for the first quarter of 2014. We expect demand in certain European countries to remain strong, and our first-rate reputation and strong customer service will continue to allow Trina, as a market leader, to capture opportunities and achieve growth in the European markets. We will maintain our strategic focus on diversifying our business across a wider geographical footprint and delivering sustainable growth. We believe achieving increased gross margins will further support improved bottom line growth quarter over quarter."
As these selected estimated results are subject to the finalization of the Company's financial closing procedures, the Company's actual results may differ from its current estimates.

Dabei hat sich ja nun wirklich nichts daran geändert, dass der Solarmarkt weiterhin wächst bzw. so gross ist wie noch nie und das die Solarwerte im Vergleich zu anderen Branchen noch viel zu niedrig bewertet sind -> Wachstumsmarkt, Rückkehr in die Gewinnzone.
Natürlich ist der Rücksetzer ärgerlich... aber es ändert aus meiner Sicht überhaupt nix daran, dass die Solarwerte weiterhin eine gute Zukunft haben und Geduld hier belohnt wird.
Sollte die SMA 200 und mit ihr der beschriebene wichtige Horizontalwiderstand schnell zurückerobert werden, dann kann man den aktuellen Kursbereich als neuen Boden ansehen. Entscheidend ist das Überschreiten der 26$ Marke.
Is First Solar A Good Investment?
Summary
•The growth in the utility-scale market is encouraging for the company.
•Future growth in the utility-scale market will likely come from the overseas markets.
•The cost and efficiency advantage of the company will enhance the profitability of the company.
First Solar (FSLR) is up over 36% during the last three months due to the impressive earnings and a robust outlook. The stock has been performing well during the last twelve months and it has gained over 83% during the period. The growth shown by the company and the future growth prospects justify the increase in the stock price. In this article, we will take a look at the future prospects of the company. First, we will take a look at the industry demand of solar power. We will also take into consideration the two most important aspects of the Solar Power industry i.e. cost and efficiency of the company's product. Based on these factors we will draw a conclusion about the company's growth in the future.
Utility Scale Market
The previous year was profitable for solar power companies derived by strong demand and higher prices. The installations grew by 58%, of which, utility-scale market accounted for 60%. This presented opportunity to the manufacturers motivating them to produce more. As a result, the market went into an oversupply. Now the demand is rising again and may absorb the oversupply of the solar energy products in a few months. However, the growth may be slowing down in the U.S. as Goldman Sachs reported that the utility-scale solar projects are likely to grow at roughly 8% till 2016. The slowdown in the growth of the utility-scale market might impact the growth of the company - however, the opportunity in the developing nations is huge as those countries are yet to use solar energy as a primary source of power generation. First solar dominates the commercial market and is uniquely positioned to gain from this growth opportunity in the overseas markets.
According to BNEF, expenditure on new solar power has increased by 23% to $27.5 billion as compared to the previous year. The important thing to notice here is that $21.2 billion worth of these projects were of less than 1MW (megawatt). This shows that solar power has higher demand in the form of smaller projects, which also includes residential rooftop solar grids.
Growth Opportunity in the Small Scale Projects
Demand of solar power in utility-scale projects has slowed over the last year with an expected growth rate of 8% as discussed above. However, the demand for solar grids on the rooftops for small individual projects is increasing as the smaller projects are being preferred. Goldman Sachs reported that the demand of this market could increase with a growth rate of 45% annually in the next three years. In 2013, this market grew by 41% representing improved demand. However, its competitor, SolarCity (SCTY) dominates this market, which may give First Solar a hard time in capitalizing on this opportunity.
In 2013, the company produced 1,600 MW of solar panels derived by strong industry growth. This year, the company expects to produce 1,900 MW of solar panels representing a growth of 18.75% in production. Therefore, we can expect improvement in the revenues this year.
Improving Cost and Efficiency
First Solar has always been ahead of its competitors in terms of efficiency. The company held a world record in photovoltaic conversion efficiency of 16.1%, which was recently enhanced further by First Solar to 17%. The company also set a world record for CdTe research cell efficiency of 20.4%. In addition, it acquired TetraSun last year. However, its mainstream production is still optimized with a much older efficiency of 14.2%.
Cost per watt is another important factor to consider in this industry as it has been one of the primary reasons for clean energy not becoming mainstream. First Solar has a clear advantage in this area with manufacturing cost per Watt of $0.53, which represents a decrease of 17% from per watt cost of $0.64. However, the installed cost is around $1.59 per watt, which should also go down as the cost for panels comes down. First Solar presently has a cost advantage over its competitors and in the coming years, this advantage is expected to allow the company to maintain an edge over its competitors. As a result, the cost and efficiency of the company can gain a better market share in the next three years as the company brings the improved technology and cost efficiency to the market.
Conclusion
First Solar is uniquely positioned to exploit the growth opportunity present in the market at the moment. The growth in the utility-scale as well as rooftop grids will be rapid over the next few years - utility-scale growth is expected to come from developing nations and the rooftop growth is gathering pace in the developed world. Furthermore, the efficiency and cost advantage of the company should allow it to capture a larger market share and enhance its profitability in the short-medium term. Despite its recent surge in the stock price; First Solar remains an attractive investment opportunity.
