Stellantis Shares Hit a Five-Year Low, Down 23.5% Over a Month
The Italo-American automaker continues its decline, breaking a new symbolic threshold. The stock is once again among the most targeted in a heavily red CAC 40, in a market environment weakened by renewed tensions in the Middle East.
Stellantis Shares Lose 4.19% to €4.78 During Trading Session
Stellantis shares fell 4.19% to €4.78 during the session and touched an intraday low of €4.74, a five-year low. The stock is among the biggest losers in the CAC 40, which itself fell 2.19%, in a tense market environment. The VIX jumped 19.5% to 18.6, while Brent crude surged 5.7% to $76.09 a barrel following US strikes against Iran and the claimed retaliation by Tehran in Kuwait and Bahrain. This context weighs on the automotive sector through the anticipated rise in fuel costs. However, the slide in the stock is not new: the automaker had already dropped below €5 last Friday, now showing a decline of 23.3% over a month and 43.2% over a year.
Deteriorated Technical Setup and Valuation Reduced to 5.8 Times Earnings
The stock is trading well below all of its moving averages, with a 22% gap to the MM20 (€6.14) and 38% to the MM200 (€7.71), reflecting the extent of the trend deterioration over several months. The RSI at 29 enters an oversold zone, with no signs of reversal at this stage. In terms of valuation, the stock is priced at approximately 5.8 times the earnings expected for this fiscal year and 3.2 times those of the next fiscal year according to the consensus of surveyed analysts, a level that reflects the persistent mistrust around the stock. The next numerical milestone for holders remains the €4.74 threshold touched this Wednesday, now the new reference floor.
