Read up, I know this is **WallStreet** Bets but while you've been busy losing money on $TSLA calls, there's an actual value play in the europoor EV space that's criminally undervalued: Valeo, the French auto supplier that's about to make your wife's boyfriend jealous.
**TL;DR:**
* Massively undervalued based on fundamentals
* Rising profit margins in coming quarters
* Confirmed strong cash flow
* Already announced debt reduction plan
* Huge R&D investments already made
* Cost reduction strategy in progress
* Short-term 🌈🐻 manipulating price down based on slight revenue dip and debt.
**🚀 Short Squeeze Potential**:
The stock has significant short interest with bears piling in on revenue guidance. But these 🌈🐻 are about to get caught with their pants down when:
* Margin improvements hit next quarter
* EV transition accelerates
* Cost reduction results start showing
* Debt reduction plan delivers
**Why Your Smooth Brain Should Care:**
1. They're balls deep in EV AND Self-Driving tech when every boomer car manufacturer is trying to catch up to Tesla
2. Stock is getting hammered short term but bottom has been resisting for a while now = perfect entry for patient autists
3. Increasing dividends coming for those who can hold without paper handing
**The Real DD:**
Short sellers are having a field day with the revenue guidance being slightly down for next year. But here's what these 🤡 are missing - Valeo is positioning for the entire auto industry's transition to EV and to add self driving feature. They've already done the hard part with R&D investment while implementing cost-cutting measures. They have a world class AI division (valeo.ai) and provide the best Lidar around.
**Price Action:**
The stock is getting beaten down harder than your portfolio after a JPow speech. But unlike your options plays, this has actual fundamentals behind it. When the EV transition accelerates, those who diamond handed this will be laughing.
**Position or Ban:**
Currently holding shares because I actually believe in this play (and I'm too europoor for options).
Remember: This is not financial advice. My strategy is usually to buy high sell low.
