As of the October 20, 2026 close, CSIQ finished 34.41% below its 150-day moving average ($14.59) and 40.00% below its 200-day moving average ($15.95). This snapshot is end-of-day data shown with a five-trading-day delay on the free plan; Premium members see readings from the latest close.
Is CSIQ overbought or oversold?
At the October 20, 2026 close, CSIQ's RSI(14) was 26.5, in oversold territory (below 30). The MACD histogram was negative, so short-term momentum leaned bearish at that close. These readings are historical, refresh daily after market close, and are not investment advice.
The company holds $1.46B in cash, though total debt stands at $7.31B. This level of leverage is common in the industry but worth monitoring as interest rate conditions evolve. Free cash flow is running at -$1.29B, which bears watching. Negative free cash flow can be acceptable during heavy investment periods but needs to improve over time. Return on equity stands at -6.0%, which is negative for the sector. ROE measures how effectively a company uses shareholder capital to generate profits. ROA of 0.4% is on the lower side, which is common in asset-heavy industries. Revenue has pulled back from $7.47B (2022) to $5.60B (2025), a 25% decline worth watching.
Canadian Solar Inc.'s elevated beta suggests the stock experiences more pronounced price movements than the overall market, which increases both upside potential and downside risk. The debt-to-cash ratio suggests meaningful leverage on the balance sheet, a factor worth monitoring if credit conditions tighten. The company is burning cash at the operating level, which is not unusual for growth-phase companies but adds risk if it persists. No single metric tells the full story. Reviewing CSIQ's risk profile alongside its fundamentals and technical indicators provides a more complete picture.
