Mercedes-Benz Stock Holds Steady Despite Q3 Delivery Drop
Despite a 12% drop in global deliveries in Q3 2024, Mercedes-Benz stock has shown resilience, with investors focusing on potential trends rather than current difficulties. The company's electric vehicle sales have grown after six quarters of decline, with the new CLA contributing significantly to this turnaround.
Mercedes-Benz delivered 51,200 electric vehicles in Q3 2024, marking a positive shift in the market. This growth can be attributed to the new CLA, which has proven popular among customers. However, the company's overall deliveries decreased due to a 27% fall in China sales. Despite these challenges, Mercedes-Benz's stock price has increased, reflecting investor optimism about the company's future prospects. Analysts are divided, with some expressing optimism about the company's long-term luxury strategy and technological advancements, while others remain cautious. Meanwhile, the van segment continues to perform positively for Mercedes-Benz. In contrast, BMW reports an 8.8% increase in sales to 588,300 vehicles in Q3 2024, with strong performances in Europe and the USA.
