This summary was created by AI, based on 8 opinions in the last 12 months.

Ford Motor Company has experienced significant challenges in its transition to electric vehicles (EVs), leading to a staggering loss of $17 billion over four years. Despite initial investments in battery plants, the demand for EVs has declined in the US while competition has surged from China. As a result, Ford has scaled back its EV initiatives and pivoted towards energy storage solutions. The company's core car sales have declined by 4%, yet revenues have managed a 6% increase, indicating resilience. Analysts note that Ford trades at a low price-to-earnings (PE) ratio of 8x, offers a 4.3% dividend, and has a solid balance sheet, leading to mixed opinions about its future amidst tariff uncertainties and stiff competition in a cyclical industry.

PAST TOP PICK
(Top Pick Oct 28/11, Up 8.36%) a lot of people have not bought cars in the great recession. F have got their cost structures under control. We are ramping up to normal replacement demand but we have all these old cars on the road.
SELL
Car sales are going to recover to pre-recession levels. The US is short about 15 Million cars. The fleet is aging. Prefers the auto suppliers. Ford’s balance sheet is atrocious.
DON'T BUY
The average car on the road is really quite old. The financing market for car loans is opening up. It has been very well run compared to the two largest NA competitors. It is an industry that he avoids because it consumes so much capital. Prefers MG-T if you want to be in the auto industry.
HOLD
We have seen some recovery but he is not that bullish. A bit of a cyclical and there are other better ones to chase at this point. Thinks Asia represents an opportunity.
TOP PICK
Ford Credit Canada 7.5% maturing Aug 18/15. Good credit rating. This is a company that has been having great operating success and great leverage to its franchises compared to the other Big 3. Great turnaround from 2008. Has been gaining market share in China.
TOP PICK
Likes US auto business. Shares were really depressed. Still well below traditional average of sales in US. The US Fleet is old and a replacement cycle is going on.
BUY
The one positive thing for automobiles in North America is the age of the fleet. It is older today than it has been any time in 40 years. A lot of people and companies deferred replacing their vehicles. Personal incomes are rising in the US, which leads him to believe those cars will be replaced. Not a bad idea.
COMMENT
Discretionary stock so it could do well. Has broken above the 200 day moving average, which is very positive. The 50 day moving average is not white above the 200 day yet. Consider looking at some of the emerging market companies such as Tata Motors (TTM-N).
COMMENT
Shows a little double bottom in mid 2011 followed by a minor upward trend. The major downtrend from $19 has been somewhat broken but doesn't necessarily mean it is going to go up from here. Expects there will be resistance at around $14.50, which would be the 1st step followed by a 2nd step of $18.80
WAIT
Interesting chart. Up trend for past few years and then downtrend. Now a bit of consolidation. Couple of lows at same point. Looks like it is starting to break out and is putting in a bottom. Wants to see a few days of gains.
COMMENT
40%-45% sales come from outside of the US and Europe is a very big market for them. Stock has taken it on the chin. Have close to $100 billion in debt as well as $15-$20 billion of unfunded pension obligations but are producing a tremendous volume of cash and just introduced a dividend. Long-term, it could be a good bet.
COMMENT
Chart looks like it is finding a bottom here. Difficulty with auto manufacturers is that they don't have a huge growth potential. You’ll have to be very patient. Doesn't see any huge movement. Maybe $1 is the upside potential in the next 6 months. If it dips below $10, you have to get out.
HOLD
Has been going down, but is market related. A good company, paying down debt, may introduce dividend.
COMMENT
Car companies have been beaten down and trading as though they are typical commodity-based stocks. Trading in the range of 5X earnings. Thinks the industry is set for a bounce. Interesting investment for a trade. As a value investor, he can't get over the balance sheet. Until they raise the dividend to give a signal that management is confident, he is not a buyer.
WEAK BUY
He owns GM. Pent up demand in North America. Terrific company going forward but prefers GM. Will be much higher in 3-5 years.
