Ford’s Strong Q3 2025 Performance
Ford Motor Company (NYSE: F) reported strong third-quarter 2025 financial results on November 17, 2025, surpassing analysts’ expectations. As a result, Ford’s share price has increased by 30% year-to-date.
Long-Term Shareholder Concerns
Despite the recent gains, Ford’s long-term performance lags behind the S&P 500. Over the past decade, Ford delivered a total return of 62%, compared to 291% for the S&P 500. An investment of $10,000 in Ford in November 2015 would be worth approximately $16,240 today, while the S&P 500 investment would have grown to about $39,000.
Future Outlook
Analysts caution that Ford may not maintain its recent market-beating performance, citing low profitability, cyclical demand, and significant capital expenditures as risks. The current dividend yield stands at 4.57%, but investors should prepare for potential underperformance compared to broader market indices in the next decade.
