Is There Now An Opportunity In Stellantis N.V. (BIT:STLAM)?

Stellantis N.V. (BIT:STLAM) received a lot of attention from a substantial price increase on the BIT over the last few months. The recent share price gains has brought the company back closer to its yearly peak. With many analysts covering the large-cap stock, we may expect any price-sensitive announcements have already been factored into the stock’s share price.

Is Stellantis Still Cheap?

The stock seems fairly valued at the moment according to our valuation model. It’s trading around 14.06% above our intrinsic value, which means if you buy Stellantis today, you’d be paying a relatively fair price for it. And if you believe that the stock is really worth €17.93, there’s only an insignificant downside when the price falls to its real value. So, is there another chance to buy low in the future? Given that Stellantis’s share is fairly volatile (i.e. its price movements are magnified relative to the rest of the market) this could mean the price can sink lower, giving us an opportunity to buy later on. This is based on its high beta, which is a good indicator for share price volatility.

What does the future of Stellantis look like?

Future outlook is an important aspect when you’re looking at buying a stock, especially if you are an investor looking for growth in your portfolio. Although value investors would argue that it’s the intrinsic value relative to the price that matter the most, a more compelling investment thesis would be high growth potential at a cheap price. However, with a negative profit growth of -18% expected over the next couple of years, near-term growth certainly doesn’t appear to be a driver for a buy decision for Stellantis. This certainty tips the risk-return scale towards higher risk.

What This Means For You

Are you a shareholder? STLAM seems fairly priced right now, but given the uncertainty from negative returns in the future, this could be the right time to reduce the risk in your portfolio. Is your current exposure to the stock beneficial for your total portfolio? And is the opportunity cost of holding a negative-outlook stock too high? Before you make a decision on the stock, take a look at whether its fundamentals have changed.

Are you a potential investor? If you’ve been keeping tabs on STLAM for a while, now may not be the most optimal time to buy, given it is trading around its fair value. The price seems to be trading at fair value, which means there’s less benefit from mispricing. In addition to this, the negative growth outlook increases the risk of holding the stock. However, there are also other important factors we haven’t considered today, which can help crystalize your views on STLAM should the price fluctuate below its true value.
