The Street Is Back On Board With Aptiv's Above-Average Growth Potential

Such was the fear and panic earlier this year that investors bailed out of even the strongest long-term electrification stories, including Aptiv (APTV). In relatively short order, though, investors have flipped from, “Hey, why don’t you let me out here?” to a Blues Brothers-style “Hit it!,” with the Street once again firmly on board with the well above-average growth potential offered by Aptiv’s portfolios in vehicle electrification, safety, connectivity, and infotainment.

I liked Aptiv back in May, and the shares have done well since then – though not quite as well as BorgWarner (NYSE:BWA) or Valeo (OTCPK:VLEEY). At this point, unlike with BorgWarner or Valeo, it’s tough to argue that the Street is still overlooking some upside. I like the M&A optionality created by the capital raise in the summer, and I do like the company’s leverage to some of the most attractive growth areas in autos (and industrials), but even with my own expectations already above the sell-side, it’s tough to make the numbers work now.
