Ford Stock Rises Over 5% Following Earnings ReportFord's stock gained more than 5% in the latest session after the company’s earnings were released following the close of yesterday’s trading. For now, investor confidence remains strong, as the company reported earnings of $0.14 per share, significantly beating expectations of $0.02, and revenue of $37.42 billion, above the estimated $36.21 billion.
In addition, although the company mentioned it expects tariff-related costs of $2.5 billion, it also stated it plans to offset at least $1 billion of these additional costs. This has contributed to a more optimistic outlook for the stock over the coming months, allowing bullish pressure to remain strong during the current session.
Short-Term Bullish Channel
Since early April, a steady bullish channel has been forming, pushing Ford’s stock back to the $10 per share level in the short term. At the moment, buying momentum is facing a key resistance at the 200-period simple moving average. If the price manages to break through this level, it could strengthen the current upward trend seen on the chart.
Technical Indicators:
ADX: The ADX line has started to show a consistent upward slope and is approaching the neutral 20 level. If this level is crossed, it could indicate increased volatility, which—if the current trend holds—could favor continued bullish movement.
TRIX: The TRIX line has crossed the zero level, signaling that the average strength of the moving averages has turned bullish, which may indicate growing buying momentum in the short term.
Key Levels:
$9.55 – Nearby Support: Aligns with recent zones of indecision. A move back to this level could jeopardize the current bullish formation and trigger a relevant bearish bias.
$10.30 – Current Resistance: Aligns with the 200-period simple moving average. Sustained movement above this level could extend the bullish channel currently shown on the chart.
