Ford shares are stuck in reverse, and Tengler Wealth Management's Nancy Tengler doesn't see a road to redemption. Here's the one thing that has her most worried.
The stock declined Tuesday after Moody's cut its debt rating to junk status on worries a lengthy restructuring will squeeze margins and pressure cash flow. The automaker has also fallen in the past three months even as major competitorNancy Tengler, chief investment strategist at Tengler Wealth Management, is steering clear of the entire auto group.
"We're out of the group entirely and largely because we've not found that the auto companies are particularly loyal to their dividends," Tengler said Tuesday on CNBC's "." Ford's "dividend growth has been moribund. I mean, they haven't actually raised the quarterly dividend, they've been paying out a special cash dividend and I don't like that because that's usually the first thing to go.
Ford yields nearly 6.5%, above the 2% on the S&P 500. It has not raised its quarterly dividend since 2015. "You have to believe that the dividend is safe, and I found historically … these companies are not shy about cutting when they need to. So, I'd floor it in the other direction. And look, there's better places to be," Tengler said."I think you probably stay away from both the stocks. We are underweight autos and auto components, just really don't trust the bounce in a lot of these deep value cyclicals," Wald said on "Trading Nation.
