☆ We're slashing our rating on Ford after the automaker's old issues come back to haunt it
▼ + stars: | 2024-07-24 | by ( Jeff Marks | ) www.cnbc.com time to read: +8 min

However, Ford went 0 for 2 on Wednesday as an old enemy in warranty expenses returned to bite the Blue Oval. And it's an even more unfortunate setback because Ford management said on its April earnings call that the company has made "real progress" on its goal of making better vehicles. The best story at Ford remains Ford Pro , the unit that houses the company's fleet and commercial vehicles. But last quarter management said the business was tracking toward the higher end of the range, and that no longer appears to be the case. The new Ford F-150 truck goes through the assembly line at the Ford Dearborn Plant on April 11, 2024 in Dearborn, Michigan.

☆ This energy giant could soon see a breakout to fresh all-time highs, according to the charts

XOM is within 7% of its 52-week high of $123.75 from April 12, which also is its all-time high. However, that same volatile trading range since April has become part of a much larger potential bullish pattern — which is best seen on this weekly chart. The area shaded in yellow is the same bullish pattern highlighted above. In other words, a breakout to new highs now finally would help extend the 14-year bullish pattern breakout (2008-2022). The best-case scenario, then, would be seeing XOM breakout on both an absolute and relative basis.

Goldman Sachs is turning bullish on Spotify after its solid earnings report this week. Analyst Eric Sheridan upgraded the streaming stock to buy from neutral and raised his 12-month price target by $105 to $425, suggesting nearly 29% potential upside. Spotify reported record quarterly earnings on Tuesday that sent shares up nearly 12%, marking the stock's biggest one-day gain since January 2023. He anticipates the upside scenario would be for the company to repurchase as much as roughly 25% of its current market cap through 2029. Sheridan expects Spotify could also see compounding revenue growth in the mid-teens in the next three to five years.
