Ford (F)

Ford has been making headlines with its push toward electrification, rolling out models like the Mustang Mach-E, an all-electric SUV, and the F-150 Lightning, an electric version of its flagship pickup truck. However, according to a report in Bloomberg, Ford’s losses per electric vehicle exceeded $100,000 in the first quarter of 2024, prompting the company to cut battery supplier orders.

To recalibrate, Ford is pivoting production at its Oakville, Ontario plant. Originally slated for electric SUV production, the plant will be prioritizing its high-demand F-Series Super Duty trucks.If Trump prevents states from banning gas-powered cars, Ford could continue to thrive in the truck and SUV market, especially given the F-Series’ status as America’s best-selling vehicle.

Goldman Sachs analyst Mark Delaney has a “buy” rating on Ford and a price target of $13, implying a potential upside of 20%, given the stock’s current price of just over $10.
