Ford has started production on their new F-150 aluminum truck. This is their best seller vehicle and this is poised to bring their stock back up. There has been a lot of bearish pricing in the stock this year since they have not hit their numbers and their guidance has been down. The reason is they are investing in the future. They have spend lots of money on their new models and they are willing to sacrifice short-term gains for future growth. This actually worked to their advantage. Not only has gas price decreased significantly since the start of the year but customers still have aging cars that need to be salvaged.
They are in great position for 2015 and their stock is in a great position to be purchased! Even if the stock doesn’t move at all, you still get a nice 3.5% dividend to be patient. Try doing that in a money market account or CD. You are paid to be patient.
Remember they still have a great line of vehicles coming out for 2015 including the Ford Mustang, C-MAX, Escort, and more. I recommend getting in while its low.
Disclosure: I own F for the long-term potential gain.
