Two 59%+ winners, four above 25% in Aug – How this AI model keeps picking winners
On Thursday, Deutsche Bank (ETR:DBKGn)’s analysts revised their price target for Bayerische Motoren Werke AG (BMW (ETR:BMWG):GR) (OTC:BMWYY (OTC:BMWKY)) stock, reducing it to €85.00 from the previous €90.00. Despite this adjustment, they maintained a Buy rating on the company’s shares. The analysts noted that BMW presented a strong first-quarter performance, surpassing expectations particularly in automotive earnings. The company also reaffirmed its guidance for the future.
BMW’s quarterly results were positively influenced by the capitalization of research and development expenses and higher production levels. The ongoing discussions about tariffs have been a prominent issue for the automotive industry. However, BMW has reiterated its guidance, indicating that it anticipates a reduction in tariff pressures starting in July, along with unspecified compensatory actions.
The analysts at Deutsche Bank highlighted BMW’s unique stance compared to other Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) regarding their future projections. BMW’s confirmation of its outlook suggests a more optimistic view towards managing potential tariff impacts during the second quarter. The analysts see this as a favorable position relative to BMW’s competitors, as it implies confidence in the company’s ability to absorb these costs.
While BMW remains hopeful about the relaxation of tariffs and their reduced impact on the company’s full-year financials, there is a sense of caution within the industry. Not all market participants share BMW’s positive outlook on the tariff situation and its eventual easing. Nevertheless, BMW’s current stance is seen as a relatively optimistic one amidst the broader industry concerns.
