The shares experienced the following movement during the week:
- Monday, March 25th:Â Ford stock opened the day (and the week) at $8.56 and closed at $8.51

It will be rather interesting to see how Ford stock fares in 2019, given the automaker’s decisions to optimize its business fitness by discontinuing all sedans to focus on more profitable crossovers, SUVs and pickup trucks in the North American market, while at the same time investing in very costly autonomous vehicles and technologies. It’s worth noting that The Blue Oval made both moves much later than rivals, with FCA being first to kill off most of its sedans while General Motors was the first to begin investing in EVs and autonomous tech.
