Stock Market Week 47/25: RENIXX Deep in the Red - Canadian Solar, Bloom Energy, Daqo, Xpeng and Array Technologies with Double-Digit Losses

Münster (Germany) - After its rapid rise from 748 points (09 Apr 2025) to almost 1,300 points (11 Nov 2025), the RENIXX World last week ended its interim rally for the time being and experienced a significant correction. Profit-taking weighed on the market, with nearly all stocks ending the trading week with losses.

The global renewable energy stock index RENIXX World (ISIN: DE000RENX014) fell sharply last week by 8.2 percent to a closing level of 1,085.6 points (closing price 21 Nov 2025). Only three stocks managed gains (closing prices: 21 Nov 2025): Green Plains (+3.4%), ERG Spa (+2.9%) and Ørsted (+2.7%). The list of decliners is led by Canadian Solar (-33.7%), Bloom Energy (-22.4%), Daqo New Energy (-21.9%), Xpeng (-19.5%) and Array Technologies (-15.6%).

Technical Situation: RENIXX Tests the 1,000-Point Mark

From the end of 2023 to January 2025, RENIXX traded sideways between 1,000 and 1,200 points. The subsequent decline to 748 points marked a notable interim low and continues to form the key support zone in the long-term chart.

High volatility had already surfaced the previous week. With the rise to nearly 1,300 points, the index once again reached the upper boundary of its previous trading range. However, the rally proved unsustainable. Profit-taking pushed the index back toward the 1,000-point mark last week. This suggests that a sideways movement is the most realistic scenario for the coming weeks. On a full-year basis for 2025, RENIXX now sits at a gain of 10.5 percent following Friday’s close (previous week: 20.4%).
