0531 GMT - Chinese solar producers are likely to remain under pressure from industry overcapacity, exacerbated by a steep drop in China's solar installations, says Morningstar's Cheng Wang in a note. LONGi Green Energy Technology and JA Solar Technology posted 2Q losses amid declining revenue. The analyst reduces his module shipment estimates for both producers and cuts his 2028-2030 net profit projections by 12%-13% for LONGi and by 18%-33% for JA. Still, he sees the worst is behind the Chinese solar sector, as government intervention and market forces may alleviate oversupply. Morningstar trims its fair-value estimate for LONGi by 5% to 16.50 yuan and reduces JA's by 15% to 12.40 yuan. LONGi shares last 2.2% lower at 11.80 yuan, while JA shares decline 2.6% to 6.85 yuan.
