I can’t find any news stories that can explain why the Magnificent Seven stocks are in the red today. Anyone, anyone?

"I can’t find any news stories that can explain why the Magnificent Seven stocks are in the red today. Anyone, anyone?" Market due for a small pullback or a small pause. Trump assassination attempt is a catalyst for a pause at least. -in the tech stocks.
DIVERSIFICATION: Off topic alert! Are diversification ideas off target? FSLR has had a couple of major down days after a 20% decline. Considered a fine company with a good track record earnings are on the horizon. Price targets are much higher. Might be worth a position either in long calls-2026-or long stock.
Interesting that the solar panel companies are being hit because evidently the Trump doesn't like them, but his opponent of the Dems dreams, Newsome, doesn't like them either and has ended not just the solar tax credits but now PGE gets your excess solar energy for free to sell to others. Of course this draconian interference in the so-called free market benefits the power companies at the expense of the people-and the EV's which still get their tax breaks as Musk is making sure of by his donations benefit. Thus the solar panels have to make sense on their own to the homeowners in CA. Nowhere to sell your excess power to reimburse capital expenses. This probably hurts solar and helps the EV's. Interesting and amusing I wrote an "unpopular opinion" for Reddit saying basically solar panels added energy to the grid and therefore decreased demand while EV's did the opposite. EV's increase the demand for power and thus the price. Saying they are some kind of god send for the environment is a little short sited. The extra weight 1.5 Xs the same gas powered car means more energy needed to move them, more cost to repair, and more damage to people. F=MA. This is the major concern about FSLR. If there is a war on solar panels it may not be a good way to diversify. Reddit deleted my unpopular opinion FYI. Too unpopular! I thought that was funny.
