First Solar Getting Hit on Jim Chanos Comments (FSLR)

First Solar (NASDAQ: FSLR) shares are down sharply this morning, losing more than 4% to $138.60, after Jim Chanos was on CNBC this morning, and made some disparaging comments about the company, and particularly the solar sector in general.

First Solar manufactures and sells solar modules using a thin-film semiconductor technology. It also designs, constructs, and sells photovoltaic solar power systems.
