The Boeing Company (BA), Ford Motor Company (F): Flying High

Ford Motor Company (NYSE:F) has also witnessed a huge improvement in China, where it plans to double its market share from 3% to 6% by 2015. Year-to-date sales in the region are up 50% versus last year and should continue to increase; the company plans to launch an additional 15 models by 2015.

In other news overseas, losses in Europe, which have been a drag on the company’s earnings for years, are narrowing. Ford Motor Company (NYSE:F) recently reduced guidance for its 2013 losses in the region to $1.8 billion, down from $2 billion this year – a small yet great development that investors hope marks the bottom of Ford’s losses in the region.

Even better, Ford Motor Company (NYSE:F) increased its wholesale volume, market share, revenues, pre-tax profits, and operating margins in Europe, even as the overall market continued its decline. Ford still reiterates its goal to completely break even or turn a profit in the region by 2015.

Ford Motor Company (NYSE:F)’s share price has taken a breather in August after surging roughly 70% over the last year, and the company tends to drop further when macroeconomic fears stir up. If this happens, it will provide an excellent chance to buy into a company with an industry-leading management team and numerous positive catalysts that could come to fruition by 2015.
