Ford Motor (F-N)

We should be concerned about possible tariffs. Though trading at a cheap 10x, he wouldn't buy.

(Note the short timeframe.) 
Bought closer to $10 in his aggressive strategy. Likely to sell very soon, as it's nearing the top of its range. Don't be a new buyer right now.

He did not like some metrics in their last report: the warranty number, and how much they're losing in EVs. He likes the CEO and wishes he will do well, but can't recommend Ford.

He avoids car companies, because it's a tough business. Their report last night proves it--they've having a tough time. He prefers car parts makers.

He gave up on it. They aren't buying back stock. If the company was as cheap as he thought it was, they would be buying back a lot of shares now. He chose the wrong horse, should've bought GM instead.

Would recommend waiting before investing. Could be upcoming catalyst for growth in share price. Chart would suggest buying around $9. 

This is not a conservative long term play and is in their aggressive platform. It has been in a pretty clear pattern. If it pulls back to $10  then buy and sell at the one of the higher points in the pattern. You could buy this in legs.       Buy 10  Hold 15  Sell 3

Along with others, seeing muted sales in the EV space. Guided down for the year. Very cheap, ~6-7x earnings, will stay muted. Very little exuberance. Pure plays in the space have the advantage.

It's been a long time since the Model T. When you think about Ford today, there's more competition coming from the Chinese OEMs, which are dominating the domestic market and giving TSLA a run for its money. Export risk. US auto sales on a more muted path since Covid, residual car prices have been coming down. Competition's really picked up, and that's not going to change.

Yes, investors are definitely in a mood. Earnings season has seen some significant gap downs. When looking at earnings for Ford and all the other automakers, it's kind of deceiving, as the capital intensity of these businesses is high. They're far more expensive on free cashflow than they are on price-to-earnings.

Tesla's success has drawn all the money out of this space. He expects high-density countries to adopt EVs more than North America which has more geography and space, so Ford will continue to do well. Has reasonable value here, but beware of a value trap.

It yields 4.5%. Is up 10% so far this year. Lags GM but is coming back. Likes the story.

Challenged by people's reluctance to adopt EVs, but it's just a matter of time. Charging is not so easy. Car rental companies have cooled on EVs. Does internal combustion well. He owns GM.

Doesn't owns shares. Transition to EV market going fairly well, but not paying off enough. Car market dynamics tough on business (rising costs etc.). Expecting manufactures being forced to sell products at lower prices (too much competition). Overall, direction of business hard to predict.  

Good upside, but not his first choice. Latest earnings were good, but not surprising. He owns GM.

It reports Tuesday. They delivered terrific numbers to CNBC earlier today, because it sells a lot of hybrids, which is where the money is now.
