Worst Performers: Several other S&P 500 companies have fared much worse since Trump prevailed in the November election.

Some poor performers have been impacted by Trump’s policies. First Solar Inc. (NASDAQ:FSLR), a manufacturer of solar panels, has seen its stock decline amid concerns about Trump’s support for fossil fuels. The Tempe, Arizona-based company’s shares have sunk 36.41% since Nov. 5, 2024.

Benzinga Edge indicates the company may be undervalued at depressed valuations but does not fare well with its momentum and growth prospects.
