Please take a look at the 1-year chart of SPWR (SunPower, Inc.) below with my added notations:
1-year chart of SPWR (SunPower, Inc.)
SPWR has been trading sideways for the last 6 months, trading between the $28 and $35 area. In addition, the stock had held an important level of support at $28 (blue) during that entire period of time. That level had also been a prior 52-week high resistance. Last week SPWR finally broke that support and should be moving overall lower from here.

The Tale of the Tape: SPWR had a key level of support at $28. Now that the stock has broken support, a trader might want to enter a short trade at or near the $28 level with a stop placed above that level. A break back above $28 could negate the forecast for a move lower.
