On August 20, Stellantis NV declined 5.16% in regular trading, trading at $5.16/share with turnover of $19.43 million, sharply reversing an earlier session rally that had pushed the stock above $5.43. The stock had initially surged on the formal establishment of its joint venture with Dongfeng Motor in Wuhan, but selling pressure intensified as broader automotive sector weakness and company-specific headwinds prevailed.
On the news front, Stellantis recently announced a global recall of approximately 955,000 vehicles due to radio software potentially disabling rearview camera displays, affecting 2026-2027 model year Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep, and Ram vehicles. Separately, reports indicated the company is considering closing and selling its Brampton, Ontario assembly plant, citing impacts from US trade tariffs. These negative overhangs appear to have prompted profit-taking following the joint venture-driven rally.
Within the Automobile Manufacturers sector, Tesla fell 2.25%, Ford fell 2.25%, Ferrari dropped 0.35%, and Rivian slipped 0.06%.
