Briefly: The Invesco Solar ETF ($TAN), which tracks the performance of approximately 40 solar energy companies, has experienced a significant upturn.

So Basically: Over the last 10 sessions, this ETF has surged by 10%, rebounding from its lowest point since July 2020.

So Then: The positive momentum is largely indebted to the decrease in long-dated U.S. Treasury yields, which have fallen substantially since late April. These declines in yields reduce the cost of borrowing and are especially beneficial for capital-intensive industries like solar energy.

So What? This rally is particularly noteworthy as it reflects broader investor optimism in the renewable energy sector.
