Is Ford Motor Company (F) Stock a Buy After Its Blowout Q2 Earnings?
F stock is down even though the beleaguered automaker put together a great second quarter and hiked guidance. What will it take?

And looking forward, Ford raised its full-year earnings guidance to $1.65 to $1.85 per share. Heading into the quarter, consensus estimates forecast earnings of $1.51 per share for 2017. Should F achieve the midpoint of that guidance ($1.75 per share), earnings growth would be flat for the year — an important development, considering the previous estimates on Wall Street suggested a more than 14% decline year-over-year.

It's surprising me as well

...and then there's that cult stock, TSLA! Go figure! It is down because of this: However, the company issued new 2017 guidance, forecasting full-year adjusted earnings per share between $1.65 and $1.85 with the mid-range roughly in line with last year's results. That equates to $7.8 billion to $8.7 billion on pretax operating basis, below the previous outlook of $9 billion for the full year.

You're missing that they didn't play ball during the bailout...they didn't take the money, so they're now on the "outside"...notice that GM played ball, they're $35, went bankrupt, moved to china to produce...they're rewarded...
