Ferrari NV (BIT: RACE) has rallied close to 70% in 2023 but an HSBC analyst is convinced that it’s as far as the stock goes for now.
Ferrari stock receives a downgradeMichael Tyndall downgraded the luxury automaker this morning to “hold”. His €340 price target is in sync with where the stock is trading at writing.
The HSBC analyst lowered his rating on Ferrari today primarily because its valuation is stretched and potential for earnings surprise is rather limited.
His call on the luxury sports car manufacturer arrives about a month after it reported a strong third quarter and raised its guidance for the full year.

HSBC is bullish on Porsche stockA better buy with more attractive upside is Dr Ing hc F Porsche AG (ETR: P911), as per Michael Tyndall.
The HSBC analyst upgraded the rival luxury automaker to “buy” on Wednesday and said its shares could climb to €100 – up more than 20% from here. His research note reads:
Beyond 2023e, we forecast EBIT margin improvement to 18.6% by 2025e, close to upper end of 17%-19% mid-term target, in line with consensus that suggests limited downside risks to profitability.
