Ford Stock Dives After Dual Recalls as GM F1 Rivalry Heats Up

Ford faced two recalls totaling 615,964 vehicles (604,533 for windshield-wiper motor across 2020–2022 Explorers, Escapes, Aviators and Corsairs; 11,431 for a driveshaft friction weld issue) that spooked investors, sending Ford (F) shares down more than 4% in Thursday trading. The recalls come amid renewed Ford–GM competition, including in Formula 1 marketing, while analysts maintain a Hold rating with an average target of $14.02 (about 13.8% upside), based on a mix of 3 Buys, 12 Holds and 1 Sell.

China’s EV Surge Tests Ford and GM’s Global Ambitions

Ford and GM face an existential challenge as Chinese automakers and tech companies race ahead in electric and autonomous vehicles, aided by tariffs and fast product cycles; Western incumbents must accelerate software-enabled EVs or risk becoming niche gas-brand makers, with Ford pursuing a lower-cost midsize EV pickup and GM expanding its 12 EV models as BYD and other Chinese firms sharpen battery and software leadership.

Dividend Pause Reshapes Auto Stock Playbook

Dividend Pause Reshapes Auto Stock Playbook

Stellantis’ $25.9 billion one‑time charges tied to its EV push and warranty costs have led to a suspension of the 2026 dividend, underscoring how aggressive EV bets can strain cash flow; GM and Ford have weathered the period with differing stock paths. Moody’s downgraded Stellantis to Baa3, signaling higher borrowing costs and a longer, tougher turnaround even as the company projects about $7 billion in 2026 operating profit (up from $3 billion in 2025) and a hoped-for U.S. sales rebound. With the dividend in question, investors may reconsider Stellantis and look at stronger automakers like Ferrari or GM as potential alternatives until profitability and cash flow stabilize.

GM's Q4 2025 Preview: EV Restructuring Charges Beset Net Income, Yet 2026 Outlook Holds Promise

General Motors is set to report Q4 2025 results with analysts forecasting about $2.20 in adjusted earnings per share on roughly $45.8 billion in revenue, a slight revenue dip year over year but higher adjusted EPS. The company will take around $7.1 billion in special charges tied to its EV pullback and China restructuring, which will affect reported net income but not adjusted results. GM has reaffirmed its 2026 guidance, aiming for adjusted EBIT of $12–$13 billion, adjusted EPS of $9.75–$10.50, and adjusted automotive free cash flow of $10–$11 billion, with 2026 expected to improve on 2025. The earnings call is scheduled for 8:30 a.m. EST.
