Stellantis Shares Drop 1.9% Midday Despite Bank of America's Neutral Rating
The stock of the Franco-Italian-American car manufacturer continues its negative streak this Friday, January 16, at the Paris Stock Exchange, falling 1.9% to 8.49 euros at midday. The release of a neutral recommendation by Bank of America has failed to reverse the trend in a context where several banks are lowering their price targets.
Stellantis drops 1.9% to 8.49 euros at mid-session this Friday, falling below its support threshold of 8.65 euros with modest trading volumes representing 0.03% of the capital. The stock now shows a weekly decline of 9.81% and a yearly drop of 31.13%. Bank of America issued a neutral rating on the automaker this January 16 with a price target set at 10.30 euros, indicating a potential upside of 21% from the current price. This analysis comes as several institutions have recently revised their targets, with HSBC raising theirs to 10 euros on January 13 and Bernstein adjusting it to 8.50 euros on January 14. The stock is now trading below its 50-day moving average positioned at 9.32 euros, while its RSI at 30 points signals an oversold zone, suggesting a potential short-term technical correction if the market deems the decline excessive.

Stellantis' Europe head, Emanuele Cappellano, confirmed this morning to Les Échos that no European plant will close in 2026, while leaving the door open to longer-term capacity adjustments. This statement comes in a context of transformation for the group, which recently announced the discontinuation of its Jeep hybrid plug-in SUVs and Chrysler minivans due to slowing electric vehicle sales in the US. The stock is now navigating a zone of technical uncertainty, testing the lower end of its Bollinger band at 8.61 euros. Analysts remain divided, with price targets ranging from 8.50 euros at Bernstein to 13.05 euros at Jefferies. Investors are now awaiting the publication of the 2025 annual results scheduled for February 26, which should provide clarity on the group's trajectory in an automotive market undergoing regulatory and technological changes.
