  • Ford Shares Stabilize as Novelis Restarts Key Aluminum Mill for F-150 Supply
    June 11, 2026, 9:42 AM EDT. Ford shares edged higher Thursday after dropping 4.35% Wednesday amid a broader market selloff. The rebound follows Novelis' restart of its Oswego, New York, hot aluminum mill, a critical supplier for Ford's F-150 trucks. The plant's shutdown had forced Ford to cut its 2025 profit outlook and brace for up to $2 billion in costs. Novelis aims to ramp supply gradually, which may ease, but not eliminate, Ford's commodity and tariff pressures. Despite the restart, Ford faces continued challenges from high aluminum prices and vehicle quality issues, including a recent recall impacting over 548,000 U.S. vehicles. The automaker's 2026 adjusted EBIT forecast, reflecting a $1 billion net benefit from the Novelis recovery, remains under close investor scrutiny amid wider market volatility.
