Após as eleições e com a vitória do Obama será importante saber se finalmente esta menina quebra a zona dos $26 ou se volta ao fundo do range nos $20. A direcção da tendência deve ser decidida na quebra do range.

Também estou de olho, especialmente com a vitória do Obama... Caso quebre tem espaço livre até aos 50$, o que seria uma tremenda valorização.

Numa lógica de investimento de longo prazo, tenho andado a debruçar-me sobre as solares. Julgo ser a energia do futuro.

Começo por esta ( se tiverem mais sugestões agradeço):

Desde o pico de 2008, que temos estado em Bear Market - com um período que pode ser considerado de lateralização de Out.08 a Jul.11 - que se tem suavizado desde que os mínimos históricos foram atingidos este Verão. Será este o fim do Bear Market?

Penso que tentar adivinhá-lo será como em todos os casos arriscado. No entanto se a MA50 começar a subir (neste momento está a suavizar a queda) e cotação quebrar a mesma em alta, pode ser uma oportunidade de entrada longa.

Os que acompanham esta cotada há mais tempo, que dizem? Tem potencial de crescimento?

[AC Investor Blog]

Bearish no curto-prazo com suporte junto à sua EMA 50 dos periodos. Na próxima semana irá ser testado esta zona.

[L.S.S]

Hoje cai 15%, a somar aos 6% de ontem dá uma queda de 21% em dois dias.

Grande Cacetada...

[L.S.S]

Desde o mínimo do ano a FSLR já subiu 100%.

[EuroVerde]

Só uma pequena nota para quem segue esta renovável, Hoje foi um dia extremamente importante segundo a estratégia que defino, um claro sinal de não vir ao stop (que aparentemente parece estar no local correcto).

Dia de força e com aumento do volume!

[EuroVerde]

Gráfico. stop no minimo do dia da entrada.

Pcsilva, não é duplo fundo, mas tens um suporte nesse valor, permite uma entrada longa com stop apertado, ou se fechar abaixo, uma posição curta.

A queda é incrivel, dos 100$ em agosto 2011 ate aos 30$

Abraços

Viva psilva.

Só equacionarei voltar a olhar para a FSLR, quando vier à zona dos $23. Qualquer entrada antes desta referência, será correr sérios riscos.

Espero ter ajudado

Abraço

[Ulisses Pereira]

Só se pode considerar activado se fizer um "higher high", depois de ter tocado lá no tal duplo fundo. Senão, sempre que uma acção volta a um mínimo estamos a falar de duplos fundos.

Um abraço,
Ulisses

[pcsilva]

Ulisses,

desculpa a minha ignorância, mas como se define um duplo fundo?

Quais são as regras básicas para que não seja por "adivinhação"?

Obrigado

Cps

[Ulisses Pereira]

Estás a tentar adivinhar um duplo fundo. Mas é mesmo adivinhar pois não tens qualquer sinal que ele vai acontecer.

Um abraço,
Ulisses

[pcsilva]

será isto uma hipótese válida?
A mim parece-me que sim!

First Solar Shares Plunged: What You Need to Know

Although we don't believe in timing the market or panicking over market movements, we do like to keep an eye on big changes -- just in case they're material to our investing thesis.

What: Shares of First Solar (Nasdaq: FSLR ) fell 12% today after the company reported weak earnings and lowered guidance.

So what: The company swung to a surprising loss of $413 million, or $4.74 per share, on massive goodwill charges and warranty expenses. Without those adjustments, earnings per share was $1.26, still below the $1.53 analysts had expected.

Revenue guidance for 2012 was revised down $200 million to $3.5 billion-$3.8 billion.

Now what: First Solar is trying to move from highly subsidized markets into unsubsidized markets and would like to focus on utility-scale projects. The problem is, these markets aren't quite ready for prime time, and First Solar is feeling the pinch. Shares still have some value because of the company's massive power plant pipeline, but I'm about ready to write off the module business altogether.

I own shares of First Solar and while I'm not selling today, I will if shares pop at all in coming weeks because I think there are better opportunities in the solar industry.

First Solar, Inc. FSLR -1.48% today announced financial results for the fourth quarter and year ended December 31, 2011. Fourth quarter 2011 net sales were $660 million, a decrease of $345 million from the third quarter of 2011, primarily due to the timing of revenue recognition in our systems business and lower volume for module-only sales. Relative to the fourth quarter of 2010, quarterly net sales increased $50 million from $610 million. Net sales for 2011 were $2.8 billion, up about 8% from fiscal year 2010.

Fourth quarter net loss per fully diluted share was $4.78, compared to a net income per fully diluted share of $2.25 in the third quarter of 2011 and $1.80 in the fourth quarter of 2010. The fourth quarter of 2011 was impacted by pre-tax charges of $393 million (reducing EPS by $3.90) associated with a non-cash goodwill impairment for our components business, $164 million (reducing EPS by $1.67) related to warranty and cost in excess of normal warranty expense, and $60 million (reducing EPS by $0.43) related to restructuring activities, as announced in December 2011. Excluding these items, the non-GAAP net income per fully diluted share in the fourth quarter 2011 was $1.26. Net loss per share in 2011 was $0.46, compared to a net income per fully diluted share of $7.68 in 2010. Excluding the fourth-quarter 2011 charges listed above as well as $46.9 million of warranty and cost in excess of normal warranty expensed earlier this year, non-GAAP net income per fully diluted share was $6.01 for 2011. For a reconciliation of these non-GAAP measures to measures presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States ("GAAP"), please see tables below.

Cash and Marketable Securities at the end of the fourth quarter were $788 million, down slightly from $795 million at the end of the third quarter.

First Solar achieved several milestones in 2011:

-- Announced or completed the sale of four of the world's largest solar projects under construction -- Agua Caliente, Desert Sunlight, Antelope Valley Solar Ranch One, and Topaz. In January 2012, First Solar energized the first 30 MW block of the Agua Caliente project.

-- Set a world record for the efficiency of solar cells and modules using cadmium telluride (CdTe) semiconductor technology, achieving 17.3 percent and 13.4 percent, respectively, as certified by US Department of Energy's National Renewable Energy Labs (NREL). In January 2012, First Solar eclipsed its own record, reaching 14.4 percent module efficiency using commercial-scale equipment and materials.

-- Increased average module efficiency to 12.2%, up 0.6 percentage points from the fourth quarter of 2010.

-- Reduced average module manufacturing cost to $0.73 per watt, down $0.02 from the fourth quarter of 2010.

-- Added approximately 650 MW AC of new projects to the Company's project pipeline, growing our pipeline to 2.7 GW AC.

-- Exceeded 5 GW of cumulative production, enough to provide clean electricity for approximately 2.5 million homes and displace 3.3 million metric tons of CO2 annually.

"First Solar's performance in the quarter was impacted by an aggressive competitive environment, an uncertain regulatory environment, warranty-related charges, and restructuring costs incurred to help position our business for the future," said Mike Ahearn, Chairman and interim Chief Executive Officer of First Solar. "Despite these headwinds, we continue to make strides reducing manufacturing costs, increasing module efficiency, and successfully building out our captive project pipeline. These improvements, combined with our recent restructuring and strategic repositioning, enhance our competitive position in a very challenging environment."

First Solar is updating 2012 guidance as follows:

-- reducing net sales from $3.7-$4.0 billion to $3.5-$3.8 billion;

-- reiterating earnings per fully diluted share of $3.75 to $4.25, excluding any impairment and restructuring charges that we may be taking in 2012; and

-- reducing operating cash flow from $0.9-$1.1 billion to $0.8-$0.9 billion.

Boa tarde!

Peço desculpa pelo meu gráfico horrível, mas não estará a FSLR a desenhar um H&S, com projecção para mínimos?
Peço ajuda aos especialistas!

[lsilva4]

Cá vai mais uma tentativa de interpretação de AT vinda de um fundamentalmente "fundamentalista".
Melhor que eu já o Attentive fez uma análise aos fundamentais da empresa.
Tenho a acrescentar:
Pela positiva- A boas perspectivas de futuro desta empresa pela inevitabilidade de crescimento do seu mercado; O facto de ser uma das empresas mais eficiente do sector; baixo endividamento. Aposta crescente dos países emergentes e Estados Unidos nesta energia.

Pela negativa- Free Cash Flow negativo; Elevada dependência do sector político; Elevada concorrência, progresso tecnológico rápido. Payback's elevados, elevado custos dos materiais e tecnologias solares.

Perto dos 31$ pondero um investimento a muito longo prazo.
Qualquer erro grave disparem logo

Cumprimentos

Obrigado Ulisses,

Não podemos considerar estes canais?

[Ulisses Pereira]

pc, canal não vejo, mas a acção continua com tendência descendente em todos os horizontes temporais. O que tem tido é ressaltos violentos mas sem conseguir ainda dar qualquer sinal credível de inversão de tendência.

Um abraço,
Ulisses

[pcsilva]

Bom dia,

Alguém poderá fazer uma análise a esta ação?
Será que entrou agora num canal descendente?
