Ferrari’s Resilient Shares Climb Despite F1 Struggles 325th in $370M Trading Volume

Ferrari (RACE) rose 0.79% on Tuesday, with a trading volume of $370 million, ranking 325th in the stock market that day. The automaker’s shares showed resilience amid mixed on-track performance by its F1 team, which concluded a challenging Hungarian Grand Prix weekend.

The FIA confirmed that Charles Leclerc’s Ferrari car was not disqualified for skid block wear, allaying concerns that had previously plagued the team. This outcome preserved the race result and avoided reputational damage, though Leclerc faced mechanical issues during the race that limited his competitiveness. The resolution of the skid block inspection provided clarity but did not fully address the technical challenges impacting the SF-25’s performance.

Leclerc’s struggles highlighted ongoing reliability concerns, as he fell over 42 seconds behind winner Lando Norris. Post-race analysis revealed internal frustrations with the car’s design, complicating investor sentiment. While the FIA’s clearance supported short-term stability, the broader narrative of Ferrari’s technical setbacks remained intact, underscoring the link between on-track performance and market perception.

Strategies leveraging high-volume stocks like Ferrari have shown significant returns. A liquidity-focused approach, buying the top 500 stocks by daily trading volume and holding for one day, generated a 166.71% return from 2022 to the present, outperforming the benchmark by 137.53%. This emphasizes the role of trading activity in short-term equity performance, particularly in volatile markets.
