15.15 USD -0.13 (-0.851%) ⇩ (April 20, 2026, 4 p.m. EDT)
Short-term: ★★★★☆ | Long-term: ★★☆☆☆ | Dividends: ★★★★☆
Hot Take | April 18, 2026, 10:18 p.m. EDT

Strong short-term momentum driven by a price recovery from $12.28 lows, yet vehicle mechanics make it a poor long-term inflation hedge despite a robust eight-percent yield.
