More Information on Joseph Piotroski
About Joseph Piotroski: Piotroski isn't your typical Wall Street big shot. In fact, he's not even a professional investor. He's a good old numbers-crunching accountant and college professor. But in 2000, shortly after he started teaching at the University of Chicago's Graduate School of Business, Piotroski published a groundbreaking paper in the Journal of Accounting Research entitled "Value Investing: The Use of Historical Financial Statement Information to Separate Winners from Losers". In it, Piotroski laid out an accounting-based stock-selection/shorting method that produced a 23 percent average annual back-tested return from 1976 through 1996 -- more than double the S&P 500's gain during that time. Piotroski's findings were reported in major financial publiations like SmartMoney. Today, he teaches accounting at Stanford University's Graduate School of Business.

RUN Quantitative Stock Analysis

AI, Superman, and Solar's Kryptonite

Sunrun (NASDAQ: RUN) is the largest residential solar installer in the U.S. by market share. The company’s position has become increasingly precarious due to a combination of policy shifts, financial pressure, and evolving market conditions.
There’s more to consider – With a market capitalization of $2.5 billion, Sunrun has lost 36% of its value in the last year. Investors should be aware of the company’s sensitivity to economic downturns, as evident in the Covid-19 crisis when its stock plummeted by approximately 40% in a few quarters. This historical precedent raises concerns that Sunrun’s current share price of $11 could potentially drop to around $7 if similar market conditions recur. However, for investors who seek lower volatility than individual stocks, the Trefis High Quality portfolio presents an alternative, having outperformed the S&P 500 and generated returns exceeding 91% since its inception. Separately, see Is Intel Stock A Buy Now?
Why Is It Relevant Now?
Recent legislative and executive actions have accelerated the expiration of key federal tax credits—specifically the 25D Residential Solar Credit and the 48E Investment Tax Credit—narrowing the window for Sunrun to capitalize on these critical incentives. An executive order signed on July 8 further complicates matters by tightening the definition of “under construction,” adding new compliance hurdles. At the same time, the introduction of steep tariffs on imported solar equipment threatens to raise costs and erode profit margins.
These developments strike at the core of Sunrun’s business model, which relies heavily on tax credits to support its leasing and power purchase agreements. As incentives diminish and operational costs rise, the company’s ability to maintain competitive pricing and profitability is under pressure.
How resilient is RUN stock during a downturn?
Sunrun has historically underperformed the S&P 500 in market downturns, highlighting its vulnerability to macro shocks. During the 2022 inflation-driven selloff, RUN plunged 67.4%, far steeper than the S&P 500’s 25.4% drop, and it has yet to reclaim its prior highs, now trading near $10.90. In the Covid-led downturn, RUN fell 38.7% but recovered quickly. While the stock can rebound, its track record points to high volatility and limited downside resilience. Our dashboard How Low Can Stocks Go During A Market Crash captures how key stocks fared during and after the last six market crashes.
Protecting Wealth
No longer just a solar stock, Sunrun now represents a high-stakes reflection of where rooftop solar may head as federal policy becomes less predictable.. Although the company is actively adapting – expanding into energy storage, revising billing models, and adjusting its supply chain – investors remain uncertain about the speed and effectiveness of these strategic shifts. With mounting regulatory headwinds and expiring incentives, the market is closely watching whether Sunrun can transition fast enough to sustain growth and protect margins.
RUN stock trades at 1.1x price-to-sales, below its 3-year average of 1.5x and well under the S&P 500 average of 3.1x. That may suggest a discount, but it’s not “deep value” territory. Sunrun is still being priced as a growth company, and when growth looks uncertain, that premium becomes harder to justify. Given the broader economic uncertainties, ask yourself the question: Do you want to hold on to Sunrun stock now? Will you panic and sell if it starts dropping to $8, $7, or even lower levels? Holding on to a falling stock is never easy. Trefis works with Empirical Asset Management — a Boston area wealth manager — whose asset allocation strategies yielded positive returns during the 2008-09 period when the S&P lost more than 40%. Empirical has incorporated the Trefis HQ Portfolio in this asset allocation framework to provide clients better returns with less risk versus the benchmark index; less of a roller-coaster ride, as evident in HQ Portfolio performance metrics.

How Low Can Sunrun Stock Go?

Critical tax subsidies that have made solar energy economical in the U.S. look like they are on their last legs, and that's sending solar energy stocks lower in 2025. But the drop may continue as the companies involved face the reality of a much smaller solar market.

Billionaire Investor Bill Ackman Just Bought a New Stock and It's My No. 1 Position

Shares of U.S. solar energy companies slumped after the House of Representatives narrowly passed a sweeping tax and spending bill on May 22. The bill severely weakens key clean-energy tax incentives established under former President Joe Biden’s landmark climate legislation. However, the Senate is poised to make significant changes.
First Solar Inc FSLR shares declined 4.3% on May 22, while Solaredge Technologies Inc SEDG and Sunrun Inc RUN shares nosedived 24.7% and 37.1%, respectively, on May 22. Invesco Solar ETF TAN retreated 7.5% on May 22.
Can Senate Republicans Take a Different Approach?
Senate Majority Leader John Thune emphasized that the Senate intends to write its own version of the bill. Several Senate Republicans, including moderates, are already looking to revise the bill, per Bloomberg, as quoted on Yahoo Finance. Senator Lisa Murkowski of Alaska expressed concern over the House’s aggressive approach, particularly regarding clean electricity and nuclear power tax credit phaseouts.
However,despite the Senate's intentions, political realities could complicate changes. Chris Moyer, a former Democratic Senate staffer, warned that Republicans who defy President Donald Trump — a key supporter of the House bill — could face political consequences. The narrow margin in the House further limits moderates’ influence.
Renewable Energy Stocks Take a Hit
The uncertainty surrounding the future of clean energy tax incentives has rattled investors. Renewable energy stocks plunged sharply:
Analysts at Roth Capital Partners flagged the proposed denial of the federal investment tax credit for residential solar-leasing companies as a major blow, as quoted on Bloomberg. This change would impact several firms that rely on leasing models for rooftop solar systems.
How Harmful Would the Bill Prove to Clean Energy Stocks?
Despite market concerns, some Wall Street analysts believe the final legislation will be less harmful than the House version, the Bloomberg article noted. If unchanged, the House bill would represent the most significant setback to clean energy efforts under President Trump’s administration.
Notably, the bill would ban the use of components, subcomponents, or materials from China, disqualifying many solar and battery manufacturers from tax credits. Additionally, the bill would end technology-neutral clean electricity tax credits (covering wind, solar, and more) by 2029.
The bill requires eligible projects to begin construction within 60 days of the bill becoming law. This is a more aggressive phase-out than previous House GOP proposals, which extended credits until 2032.
