Stellantis Shares Drop 6% on Thursday Despite a 13% Sales Growth
Stellantis experiences a downturn on Thursday, October 30, midday, trading at 9.12 euros, marking a 6% decline since opening, contradicting the positive trajectory the automotive group has displayed over the past three months. This drop comes paradoxically after this morning's publication of the Q3 2025 results, which showed a significant improvement in billings and revenue. The stock struggles amid broader market caution, with the CAC 40 down 0.81% at 8,134 points.
The automaker recorded a net revenue of 37.2 billion euros in the third quarter, up 13% year-on-year. Consolidated billings reached 1.3 million units, marking an identical 13% increase, or 152,000 additional units. This growth largely rests on the normalization of inventories in North America, contributing 104,000 units to this increase, while broader Europe and the Middle East and Africa also saw growth. Meanwhile, the group confirmed six of the ten model launches planned for 2025, including the return of the Ram 1500 with a HEMI engine. Despite these prospects, the market did not reward this release. Trading volume remains very low, with only 0.1% of the capital in circulation, signaling a relative disinterest from investors on this day. The stock is now significantly below its target price set by the consensus of analysts at 9.08 euros, implying an additional downside potential of 6.50%.

Stellantis also reaffirmed its earnings forecasts for the second half of 2025, anticipating a continuous improvement in net revenue compared to the first half. This maintained guidance suggests some resilience of the group against the challenges of the automotive sector. However, the market seems to be waiting for additional catalysts before regaining an appetite for the stock. On the stock market, the share shows a decline of 2.45% over seven days and 26.46% over twelve months, widening the gap with a CAC 40 that has risen 8.3% annually. At three months, however, the stock manages to display a positive performance of 10.05%, reflecting particular volatility in 2025.
Technical Analysis
Technically, Stellantis fluctuates between narrow support and resistance levels. The 50-day moving average is at 8.51 euros, while the 200-day average remains positioned at 9.40 euros. The stock, currently retreating from the latter, signals a downward refocusing. The Relative Strength Index (RSI) reaches 57, reflecting a balance close to neutrality. The annualized volatility over one month remains high at 15.09%, illustrating the broad movements that characterize the stock in the current environment.
