ASTON MARTIN - REVERSAL ZONE? LONG-TERM INVESTMENT OPPORTUNITYAston Martin has been on a steep and vigorous decline since its IPO. Could Aston Martin turn things around from here and start reversing from current prices?
Aston Martin has recently announced involvement in F1 with Racing Point rebranded as Aston Martin. This could help in turning things around. Billionaire Lawrence Stroll has clear intentions to do so and has invested into the company with a £260mil injection. Toto Wolff, Mercedes F1 team-principal has also bought a stake in Aston Martin. This indicates a large force and urgency to turn the Aston Martin brand around, stabilise the business and clean the balance sheet.
With the share price being significantly devalued and oversold and the falling wedge breakout, it could be an opportunity to invest long and short-term. Short-term in the sense that the stock is highly volatile meaning returns (and losses) are seen much quicker.
However, as the business model and balance sheet, as of now, is very unappealing, unstable and risky, the clear down-trend might still be in play and the current equilibrium triangle pattern maybe a consolidation phase before breaking lower in continuation.
4 things can happen here:
Equilibrium breakout upwards and a reversal
Equilibrium breakout downwards and a continuation
Equilibrium breakout downwards and a double bottom
Delayed Range-bound consolidation sideways
VERDICT: The trades/investments above should be played in accordance with your style and risk-tolerance since, given the volatility of this stock, there is high risk. Since the chart is in a clear down-trend, the balance sheet isn't yet appealing and macro-economic factors such as covid, bull calls are more risky than bear so do your own due diligence and manage risk appropriately.
Automotive
A surprising bull case for General MotorsGM has been a company in decline for many years, and the coronavirus hasn't helped matters. Over the last three years, EPS shrank about 8.5% annually and SPS about 2% annually. The coronavirus caused GM to suspend its dividend, which at over 6% was the main reason for owning the stock. GM's stock price tanked hard, and I have to say-- based on current consensus estimates, GM has some absolutely *terrible* PEG and PSG ratios. Ordinarily I would short this stock hard.
However, the times may be a' changing for GM. Today the company absolutely walloped Wall Street estimates for Q2, with revenue 3.6% above expectations, and a loss per share that was only a third of the loss the Street expected. Guidance given on the conference call for the second half of the year is for $4-5 billion EBITDA, roughly 50% above the current Wall Street estimate. GM burned $8 billion in cash in Q2, but expects to generate $8 billion in the back half of the year, allowing the company to pay off the $16 billion revolving credit line it took out earlier this year. I should point out that all this guidance was tentative and contingent on continued economic recovery. But if it pans out, then I think we could see at least a partial restoration of GM's dividend early next year.
On the macroeconomic front, I see lots of signs that the auto market may continue to recover. Although revolving credit (e.g. credit cards) has been in decline during the pandemic, non-revolving credit (e.g. home and auto loans) has actually increased. Loan rates have been falling, and consumers are taking advantage of low rates to snap up homes. Home-buying data have blown out analyst expectations for the last couple months. What's good for homes should also be good for autos. Auto sales in June recovered slowly, from -30.2% YoY in May to -28.7% YoY in June. Auto sales are expected to show faster recovery in next week's July retail sales report, around -18% YoY. Fleet sales are expected to improve from -70% in June to -40% in July.
(Why bet on autos rather than homes? Because homes are supported by a government eviction ban that will be repealed at some uncertain future date, making that market risky. In the auto market, I have more faith that the numbers we're seeing reflect real market fundamentals. Here's another thought: with Americans moving out of cities and into suburbs and avoiding mass transit, auto demand may increase on permanent basis.)
Perhaps more importantly, GM's CEO said she expects "exciting updates" for GM's "Cruise" self-driving unit in the second half of the year. GM is a technology leader in the self-driving space, with only Google's Waymo ahead of it in the technology race. The self-driving unit thus may hold the key to a turnaround in GM's long, multi-year earnings slump. Some positive headlines from this unit would be a huge relief for embattled GM investors, and might even create some excitement around future growth.
For the near term, note that GM is currently trading in a triangle and is near the bottom of the triangle range, making this an attractive buy point with some technical support. In coming days I'd expect to see some analyst upgrades and upward earnings revisions on GM as analysts digest the optimistic guidance from the earnings call. I suspect we'll test the top of the triangle in the next two weeks, and perhaps break out the upper side in the event of a July auto sales beat.
Tesla Earnings, where to? VOLATILITY ahead!FA:
Tesla has been parabolic the past few weeks and has formed several new highs; the release of the earnings is bound to create volatility both ways.
Option traders are using a straddle strategy where they are predicting a move of $200 in either direction with the use of the SAP volatility INDEX (VIX) which we can see sometimes does correlate with the volatility of Tesla.
Bulls expect the S&P 500 inclusion for Tesla to be confirmed as they have reported profits which may lead to high volatility.
TA:
News could already be factored into the current price and thus can expect a retracement at market open.
If Tesla breaks above the resistance for the previous high, then we can expect it to form new ATH if not then we can expect it to retrace and perhaps fill the lower gaps although unlikely.

Valeo - Benefits from the stimulus plans and raised outlooksValeo recovered 78% from the drop initiated mid February. The share price increased sharply after the announcement of the stimulus packages to the automotive industry accross Europe. Barclays has just raised their share price target to 30 euros. Worth looking into buying on a pullback towards the 22 euros support line with a target near the 28 euros resistance.

VWAGY (Volkswagen) - WeeklyShort term forecast for long term positioning
Looking for a reversal within the coming month & eventual downwards trend towards the DCA zone
Recent news: Volkswagen recently restarted operations amid concerns of actual demand within the global market.
FA: From 2018 to 2019, Volkswagen saw a 20+% increase in yearly net operating earnings generating up to just over $16.9 billion.
As a major player, the company is well positioned to adapt to future automotive trends, given they continue to embrace smart
car innovations. Due to the current global environment and reasonably forecasting decreasing demand for vehicles for at least
the short term, it wouldn't be a surprise to see price action return to the range between 10.65 - 14.51, this area may serve is a
good opportunity for securing some longer term positions via DCA.
Always DYOR & keep risk managed :)

Bearish on TEN until Golden cross commencesTEN has surprised the traders once again with a break through the short downtrend, retracing back to support, bouncing and making 5% gains on the daily. However, with quarterly earnings on the horizon, I don't see these gains sticking around very long.
We are still in a major bearish downtrend, with GM layoffs looming, tariff rates, and the forecast for a recession upon us, for myself to feel any worthwhile investing in such asset. This asset, as well, is not going to trend fairly when companies start automating electric vehicles; since electric vehicles do not require an exhaust system.
I will be keeping an eye out for earnings and go from there.
Monthly Chart - F - Downtrend into 2021Ford needs to turn around business and it isn't looking favorable for 2020. Tesla still has a several year head start and with recent bullish TSLA trend, F, only takes a hit. F is still within the downward channel. Taking into the current models available and global status, I expect Ford to continue a toward trend into 2021. It will take time before Ford's fully electric offering will pick up traction. Fleet purchasing has also slowed down after a surge in purchasing the last few years. A wait and see mentality is also something to take into consideration in the 1st half of the year. Seeing as this is an election year, I do not see favorable conditions in the immediate future for Ford.
Keep in mind, that during the Great Recession, Ford did not take bail out money, something worth mentioning.
Furthermore, Ford, from a North American light truck fleet perspective, has the best offering. The F-Series truck can be seen as the workhorse for the North American economy when considering the amount of deliveries to working fleets.
Ford is here to stay but needs to clearly iron out a few problems and endure some growing pains. The internal combustion engine is being phased out and Ford is slightly late to the party. Once Ford figures out an appropriate process for electrification expect a reversal and ultimately long position (2021 & beyond)
While Ford has a dividend it may be worth holding onto if you are looking to hold for several years. For now expect a lower trend.

FORD MOTOR CO - NYSE: $F Ready To Break Higher?After gapping higher in late April on meaningful volume, the shares of FORD MOTOR CO - NYSE:F have been consolidating and in the process, building-out its right side as is evidenced in the Daily chart above.
In addition, we can also observe that F presently trades above all of its important moving averages 20/50/200 DMA's, which portrays a healthy technical picture.
However, and perhaps most importantly, F is now rapidly approaching a potential key inflection point and may just be gearing-up for a move into higher ground.
Thus, both investors/traders may want to continue to monitor the action closely in the days ahead for if F can go topside of the $10.55 figure and 'stick', we may just witness a rapid move into the $12 - $12.50 zone moving forward.
Therefore, you may want to put the shares of F front-and-center on your radars as the stock is presently knocking on the door seeking further potential upside.
Daimler post-dividend drop offers buying opportunityDaimler recently gapped down in a big way after its dividend and a CEO change, which offers an opportunity for investors to get back in at low prices. Daimler isn't the sexiest automotive company, but it's fast becoming a leader in the autonomous vehicles space. It's already got a level 2 autonomous rig on the road, cutting the cost of traffic incidents by 95%. By 2025 it expects to field a fully autonomous truck. Whatever you think about putting truck drivers out of business, this is bound to be insanely profitable for Daimler.
Analyst ratings on Daimler are super mixed, mostly because some analysts are more forward-looking than others. Last year Daimler's earnings were down year-over-year, mostly because of R&D costs. However, the company delivered a solid earnings beat in Q1 on the strength of its autonomous truck business, and I think it will solidly beat estimates again in Q2. In the meantime, Daimler's formed a nice, gentle upward channel. Pick it up on pullback to channel bottom for a steady return until next earnings on July 25. Analyst upgrades or earnings estimate revisions could benefit the stock before then.
Note that Daimler trades as both DMLRY and DDAIF.
