The bankruptcy filing, coupled with the Texas Attorney General fraud investigation into Sunrun and Freedom Forever for violations of the Deceptive Trade Practices-Consumer Protection Act launched on April 3, "provides critical real-time validation of our bear thesis on Sunrun," adds the analyst, who has a Sell rating and $4.63 price target on Sunrun shares.

China is considering restricting exports of advanced solar panel manufacturing equipment to the U.S., which could disrupt American clean energy investments and slow efforts to expand domestic solar production, Reuters reports.
