Diverging fortunes - First Solar and Q-Cells
Both are specialists in photovoltaic technology, but First Solar (blue trace) and Q-Cells (green) have had very different financial fortunes over the past two years. Despite a booming PV market during that time, Q-Cells has lost around 90% of its stock value, while First Solar has held steady in the face of massive competition from Chinese producers.
