Shares of First Solar rose 1% on Friday following a sharp decline, as major Wall Street firms downplayed the threat from Tesla's ambitious solar manufacturing plans. Elon Musk announced targets for 100 gigawatts of annual production, but analysts cited supply constraints and First Solar's advantages as mitigating factors. While one firm downgraded the stock, overall sentiment remained positive.
