Stellantis Shares Jump 3% Despite a 48% Yearly Drop
Stellantis NV shares increased by 3.15% this Tuesday at midday, trading at 5.887 euros in a rising Paris market, with the CAC 40 up by 0.59% during the session. This technical rebound follows a significant downward trend, with the automaker losing nearly 42% of its value over three months and about 48% over a year.
Current Trading Position
Today, Stellantis NV's stock is trading above its support threshold of 5.71 euros, which was precisely yesterday's closing price. However, the price remains significantly distant from its 50-day moving average of 7.43 euros, indicating a firmly entrenched downward trend. The RSI at 32, close to the oversold zone usually set at 30, suggests that selling pressure has reached an extreme level in recent weeks, which could explain today's rebound. The most significant resistance lies at 8.68 euros, about 47% above the current price, highlighting the extent of recovery needed for the stock to reach more comfortable levels. Over the past week, Stellantis still shows a decline of 1.51%, confirming that the momentum remains weak despite this Tuesday's positive session.
Analyst Update and Future Outlook
Alongside this rebound, Evercore ISI updated its assessment of the stock this Monday, March 16. The firm raised its price target from 7.50 to 8.00 euros, while maintaining a 'market perform' rating, which is a neutral opinion. Compared to the current price of 5.887 euros, this new target represents a potential increase of about 36%. However, the continuation of a cautious recommendation contrasts with this gap, indicating that the analyst considers the risk-return profile insufficient to recommend buying at this time. Regarding the schedule, upcoming events that could alter the stock's trajectory are approaching: the annual general meeting is scheduled for April 14, followed by the publication of the first quarter 2026 results on April 30. These events will provide greater visibility into the group's strategy and the evolution of its sales volumes in a sector that remains under scrutiny.
