All times ET. 5:48 a.m.: Morgan Stanley sees more upside for Ford stock following EV strategy shift Ford’s reassessment of its electric vehicle strategy is largely good for the automaker’s financials, according to Morgan Stanley. Analyst Adam Jonas upped his price target on the automaker by $1 to $17, implying 28% upside over Friday’s close. He has an overweight rating on Ford and called it a top pick. “Following Ford’s announcement of a significant recalibration (slower/later) of their EV strategy we make a number of changes to our Ford earnings model that are largely positive and drive a slight increase in our price target,” he wrote in a Friday note to clients. Unit volume for the electric Model e cars was cut by a combined 27% compared with prior Morgan Stanley estimates for 2024 and 2024. Now, Jonas anticipates battery electric vehicles should make up less than 7% of total Ford unit volume by 2030, far lower than the prior forecast of 14%. Ford should see adjusted loss before interest and taxes for the Model e at $4.6 billion and $3.6 billion in the fiscal 2024 and 2025 years, respectively.
