Ford Stock (NYSE:F) Rises With May Sales Numbers
When legacy automaker Ford (F) first revealed plans to supply all its customers with employee pricing, it was a bold move. A lot of people wondered how it would turn out. And the numbers for May suggest that it went pretty well indeed. Investors were certainly pleased with how it all boiled down, because they sent Ford shares up over 2% in Tuesday afternoon's trading. Confident Investing Starts Here: Easily unpack a company's performance with TipRanks' new KPI Data for smart investment decisions Receive undervalued, market resilient stocks right to your inbox with TipRanks' Smart Value Newsletter May 2025 brought with it a whopping 16.3% increase in sales against May 2024's numbers. These numbers were led by a 17.2% surge in sales of internal combustion vehicle models. Since these cars are usually the leaders in sales anyway, their surge allowed for a massive gain overall. This was vital, as Ford also posted a 25% drop in the sales of all its electric vehicles. Round things out with a 29% jump in hybrid car sales, and the picture was complete. Admittedly, some of those sales are likely customers front-loading, moving up purchases originally planned for later in the year to take advantage of the employee pricing. And with price hikes likely to come in the second half of the year, future sales may not be so productive. A Captivating Range Those hybrid vehicles are starting to catch a lot of notice, as one report noted that the range on the hybrid F-150 is proving more impressive than imagined. That report found that, despite driving in and around Seattle—which is pretty much a guarantee of stop-and-go urban driving—the vehicle still managed to get around 700 miles on a single tank of gasoline. It certainly helps that the F-150 in question got around 23 miles per gallon, which is respectable for a large-size truck. Throw in the fact the F-150 also has a wallet-busting 30.6 gallon tank—a fill-up for that one would run over $90 in many places—and the longevity of this vehicle becomes almost impossible. Plus, the tester in question reported that the battery life in the vehicle was more than sufficient to keep devices charged while traveling, especially with BlueCruise active. Is Ford Stock a Good Buy Right Now?

Bernstein Ups Ford (F) Price Target, Cautions on H2 Risks
On May 24, Bernstein SocGen Group maintained its Underperform rating for Ford Motor Company (NYSE:F) but revised its price target from $7 to $8.30. Daniel Roeska, the firm's analyst, cautioned about possible difficulties in the second half of 2025 but pointed to the year's strong start as a reason for optimism. According to Roeska, Ford's strong first-quarter performance in 2025 and probable continued strength in the second quarter are encouraging indicators. He did, however, warn that production reductions and tariff challenges are signs that Ford Motor Company (NYSE:F) may be bracing for a second-half decline. That said, Roeska pointed out that Ford's plans to minimize the effects of tariffs, alongside the robust performance of Ford Credit, might give the company the possibility of weathering the storm. Knowing this, Bernstein SocGen Group lowered Ford's 2026 earnings per share prediction by 5.8% to $1.66. While we acknowledge the potential of F to grow, our conviction lies in the belief that some AI stocks hold greater promise for delivering higher returns and have limited downside risk. If you are looking for an AI stock that is more promising than F and that has 100x upside potential, check out our report about the cheapest AI stock. Read More: and . Disclosure: None.

Wells Fargo Maintains a Sell Rating on Ford (F) After Q1 Report
In a report released on May 19, Colin Langan from Wells Fargo maintained a Sell rating on Ford Motor Company (NYSE:F) and set a price target of $10.00. A Ford truck roaring down a highway, with powerful headlights blazing its way. The rating came after the company reported its fiscal Q1 2025 results on May 5. Revenue for the quarter took a hit, dropping to $40.7 billion and reflecting a 5% decrease from the same period last year. This was attributed to a reduction in wholesales due to the planned shutdown of certain plants related to inventory rebalancing measures and new product launches. Ford Motor Company (NYSE:F) also reported a notable drop in net profit, which went from $1.33 billion last year to $471 million this quarter. The company has suspended its financial guidance because of tariff-related uncertainty, which includes adjusted free cash flow and full-year adjusted EBIT.
