Autoliv, Inc. is a prominent player in the Consumer Cyclical sector, specifically operating within the Auto Parts industry. With a notable market capitalization of 7.88 Billion, the stock is currently trading at USD 103.72. The asset has experienced a recent downturn, reflecting a 24-hour drop of -3.63% and a wider 7-day decline of -7.56%. This short-term market weakness sets the stage for a comprehensive evaluation of its technical and fundamental health.
Based on our proprietary technical scoring system, Autoliv receives a Strong Sell rating with a total score of -4. The primary driver of this bearish outlook is the trend: the current price sits well below its 200-day Simple Moving Average (117.55), resulting in a -2 point penalty. Trend strength is also resolutely negative; a high ADX of 33.10 combined with a DMI- (40.60) towering over the DMI+ (11.02) confirms a strong downward trajectory (-1 point). Furthermore, momentum indicators like the MACD histogram are sitting in negative territory at -1.33 (-1 point), and On-Balance Volume (OBV) is trailing its 5-period SMA, indicating active distribution by sellers (-1 point). The sole bullish technical signal comes from the RSI, which sits at a deeply oversold 19.52 (+1 point). While this suggests a potential short-term bounce, it is not enough to reverse the broader bearish sentiment.
Interestingly, this technical Strong Sell rating clashes with Autoliv's intriguing fundamental profile. The company boasts an attractive P/E ratio of 10.86 and an unusually high reported dividend yield of 317.0. Moreover, Autoliv's latest earnings showcased a reported EPS of 0.88, delivering an astonishing positive earnings surprise of 1867.0%. While these fundamental metrics—coupled with the next quarterly report scheduled for 17/04/2026—highlight significant underlying value, the technicals remain heavily skewed to the downside. Investors should tread carefully and wait for technical stabilization before considering any positions.
