Ford Motor Company (NYSE:F) gapped up 1.37% to start Thursday’s trading session after a volatile session on Wednesday caused the stock to slip over 2% intraday before closing flat.
The legacy-turning-EV vehicle manufacturer announced it’s upping its total investment into Ford’s Halewood Plant on Merseyside, U.K. by £125 ($152.8 million U.S.) to aid its transformation into the EV space. This puts Ford’s total investment into the facility at £380 million.

"Our vision in Europe is to build a thriving business, by extending leadership in commercial vehicles and through the electrification of our car range," said Kieran Cahill, Ford's European Industrial Operations vice-president.
Ford met an EV milestone on Wednesday, announcing it had produced its 150,000th Mustang Mach-E. The news was met with congratulations from Tesla, Inc (NASDAQ:CEO) CEO Elon Musk, who’s EV company currently dominates the EV market share in the U.S.
As Ford continues to increase its EV offerings and ramp up production, its current 7% market share is sure to grow. From a technical perspective, Ford has settled into a bull flag pattern on the weekly chart, which could send the stock soaring over 30% if the market cooperates.
