If You Invested $10,000 in Ford in 2021, This Is How Much You Would Have Today
Value-focused investors have long been finding it difficult to wrap their head around the valuations of electric vehicle (EV) stocks. In 2021, Ford Motor Company (NYSE: F) stock joined this list of EV companies whose stocks seem to be defying gravity. Its stock price has risen to a level not seen in two decades. Let's discuss what's behind its steep rise and how it may fare going forward.
The automaker's stock rose 136% in 2021 and continues to rise in the new year, already up 21% so far in 2022. If you invested $10,000 in Ford's stock a year back, your investment would have risen to $25,630 as of this writing on January 17th.
Ford fared better than top rival General Motors (NYSE: GM) in the past year. Its vehicle deliveries for the year were less impacted by supply shortages than those of General Motors. However, that alone couldn't justify the stock's spectacular rise.
