- Ford Stock Price Forecast - NYSE: F is gaining bearish momentum. If it doesn't reclaim $12.4, bears may target range lows of $10.9 soon.
Ford Stock (NYSE: F) price continues to trade in the $11-$14 trading range. The stock for the automobile manufacturer has broken below the range mid of $12.4 and sits 2.7% below it. At press time, the stock is changing hands at 12.07, up 0.17% in pre-market hours.
