Shares of SolarEdge Technologies Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SEDG#NASDAQ">SEDG</a>) dropped 20% to $15.06 during Wednesday&#8217;s session. Several solar stocks are trading lower following Donald Trump&#8217;s <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/large-cap/24/11/41774549/trumps-big-tech-policies-what-gop-victory-means-for-apple-google-microsoft">presidential election victory</a>.
The Republican Party's gains across the House and Senate signal a potential shift away from the green energy policies that have bolstered SolarEdge's business model. 
Trump's campaign commitments included reducing federal support for renewables and easing regulations on fossil fuel industries, which poses a threat to SolarEdge's growth trajectory and the broader renewable energy sector.
What To Know: Trump's proposed energy agenda includes plans to phase out green energy tax incentives, such as the Federal Investment Tax Credit (FITC), which currently provides a 30% tax credit for solar installations.
Concerns could mount among investors that if Trump repeals or scales back this incentive, it could impact demand for solar installations in the U.S., especially in states that lack their own substantial renewable energy subsidies.
SolarEdge, a leading provider of solar inverters and energy management solutions, relies heavily on the continued expansion of solar power adoption. 
With the possible withdrawal of federal tax benefits, SolarEdge could face serious headwinds, as potential customers may be deterred by higher upfront costs in the absence of tax relief, which could stall the company's momentum in a key market.

Impact of Potential Tariffs and Trade Policies: Additionally, Trump's stance on tariffs poses a potential risk to SolarEdge's supply chain. Trump has floated the idea of a universal 10% tariff on all imports, and a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/11/41737933/trump-tariff-proposed-may-cost-americans-78b-in-spending-study">possible 60% tariff</a> on Chinese goods could have direct repercussions.
SolarEdge sources some of its key components from international suppliers, particularly in Asia. If such tariffs were enacted, the costs of inverters and other equipment could rise sharply, squeezing the company's margins or forcing it to pass on these costs to consumers, further challenging its competitive positioning in the U.S. market.
What Else: Trump&#8217;s previous administration took a deregulatory approach toward environmental policy, rolling back numerous climate and emissions regulations. Given Trump's preference for traditional energy sectors, SolarEdge could see a policy landscape less supportive of renewable energy initiatives and one more favorable to fossil fuels. 
Without strong Federal backing, the solar industry may struggle to maintain its current growth, potentially impacting SolarEdge's revenue from its U.S. operations, which constitute a significant portion of its business.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Should I Sell My SEDG Stock?</h2>
When deciding to hold on to or sell a stock, investors should consider their time horizon, unrealized gains and total return.
Shares of SolarEdge Technologies have decreased by 78.4% in the past year. An investor who bought shares of SolarEdge Technologies at the beginning of the year would take a loss of $76.39 per share if they sold it today. The stock has fallen 17.51% over the past month, meaning an investor who bought shares on Oct. 1 would see a capital loss of $6.33.

Sysco's (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SYY#NYSE">SYY</a>) short percent of float has fallen 15.52% since its last report. The company recently reported that it has 13.89 million shares sold short, which is 2.83% of all regular shares that are available for trading. Based on its trading volume, it would take traders 4.6 days to cover their short positions on average.
<h3>Why Short Interest Matters</h3>
Short interest is the number of shares that have been sold short but have not yet been covered or closed out. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-short-a-stock/">Short selling</a> is when a trader sells shares of a company they do not own, with the hope that the price will fall. Traders make money from short selling if the price of the stock falls and they lose if it rises.
Short interest is important to track because it can act as an indicator of market sentiment towards a particular stock. An increase in short interest can signal that investors have become more bearish, while a decrease in short interest can signal they have become more bullish.

<h3>Comparing Sysco's Short Interest Against Its Peers</h3>
Peer comparison is a popular technique amongst analysts and investors for gauging how well a company is performing. A company's peer is another company that has similar characteristics to it, such as industry, size, age, and financial structure. You can find a company's peer group by reading its 10-K, proxy filing, or by doing your own similarity analysis.
According to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/">Benzinga Pro</a>, Sysco's peer group average for short interest as a percentage of float is 4.32%, which means the company has less short interest than most of its peers.
