9 Consumer Discretionary Stocks Whale Activity In Today's Session

Shares of auto and auto component stocks are trading lower on continued tariff concerns ahead of the China tariff deadline. Auto part tariffs could increase costs for producers and suppliers.

Shares of auto component stocks are trading lower as markets react to President Trump's recent announcement of sweeping tariffs.

What Happened: The Dow, S&amp;P 500, and the Nasdaq, all witnessed their steepest declines since the pandemic, with most U.S. stocks ending the day in the red.

<h3 class="wp-block-heading">1) Goodyear Tire &amp; Rubber Co.</h3>
Goodyear Tire &amp; Rubber was a bright spot on Thursday, rallying nearly 12% amidst all the chaos, making it the day&#8217;s top gainer.
Edison Yu, an analyst at Deutsche Bank, believes Goodyear to be <a href="https://in.benzinga.com/25/04/44614534/5-car-stocks-that-will-benefit-from-trumps-liberation-day">a &#8216;relative winner&#8217; of Trump&#8217;s trade wars</a>, as most of its U.S. demand is filled with domestic manufacturing. As a result, it is less exposed to tariffs on imports, relative to peers in this industry.
Yu further adds that Goodyear&#8217;s focus on replacement tires, which make up 85% of its revenue, is set to benefit from the auto tariffs, as consumers will stick with their vehicles longer, leading to more tire changes. The stock has been upgraded to a &#8216;BUY&#8217; with a price target of $13, as <a href="https://www.investing.com/analysis/why-goodyear-tire-stock-is-a-relative-winner-amid-tariff-turmoil-200659060">reported</a> by Investing.com.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">2) Lamb Weston Holdings Inc</h3>
Consumer staples were, in fact, only 1 of 11 sectors in the S&amp;P 500 to finish the day higher, as investors rushed to safe havens, and Lamb Weston Holdings was one of them, gaining 10%.
Analysts like Citi&#8217;s Filippo Falorni have long considered staples to be recession-proof and resilient in the face of uncertainty, telling the <a href="https://www.wsj.com/finance/stocks/consumer-staples-gain-on-rush-to-safety-after-tariffs-spark-market-rout-45d2582b">Wall Street Journal</a> that investors can expect &#8216;stable earnings and revenue even in a tough environment.&#8217;
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">3) First Solar Inc</h3>
First Solar rallied nearly 5% on Thursday, being an American-made solar panel company, which allows it to dodge tariffs that apply to its competitors.
Chinese-made solar panels, which were the company&#8217;s biggest competitors, are now at a considerable disadvantage. <a href="https://www.renewableenergyworld.com/energy-business/why-is-first-solar-stock-soaring-while-much-of-the-market-sags/">Renewable Energy World</a> reports that investors in solar energy will seek to avoid the massive 54% tax on Chinese panels, while also earning the tax credits from the Inflation Reduction Act, giving a strong impetus to First Solar.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">4) Dollar General</h3>
Investors likely pursued Dollar General as another recession-proof stock, being a major discount retailer with nearly 20,000 stores, leading to a 4% spike on Thursday, and an 18% rally since the beginning of March. 
However, this theory doesn&#8217;t hold up too well, as Billy Duberstein <a href="https://www.fool.com/investing/2025/04/03/dollar-general-rallied-18-in-march-market-crash/">writes</a> for the Motley Fool, that during the post-pandemic inflationary period, Dollar General was hit with an expensive combination of inflation hitting its low-income customers&#8217; purchasing power, along with a rise in theft. 
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">5) American Water Works </h3>
A public utility that provides water and wastewater solutions, American Water Works is well insulated from global trade, tariffs, and geopolitics, making it the perfect safe haven stock.
People are unlikely to stop using water during a recession, and add to this, the stock offers an annualized yield of 2%, making it a great pick for those looking to overcome the tariff upheaval.

Lamb Weston Posts Better-Than-Expected Results, Joins Sanofi And Other Big Stocks Moving Higher On Thursday

The calendar may have flipped to April, but trade drama is still driving the markets. President Trump&#8217;s April 2 &#8220;Liberation Day&#8221; announcement is only the latest White House effort to make imports more expensive.
One of the largest yet was the 25% import tax on cars and car parts announced in March. This has already changed how Americans shop, as car buyers raced to the lots last month to purchase new vehicles under the wire. Economists estimate that the price of a new car could jump by as much as $10,000 to $20,000, depending on the make and model. That&#8217;s likely to make people hang on to older cars for longer, or buy new ones as soon as possible.
However, with every shakeup comes an opportunity, and some companies may benefit from changing trends in the automobile industry. In this article, we'll review five car-adjacent stocks that could see tailwinds from auto tariffs.
Here are five car-adjacent stocks that could benefit from all this car trade drama.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">AutoZone Inc.</h2>
AutoZone Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AZO#NYSE">AZO</a>) found its way onto one of our lists last year when Trump first began musing about tariffs and tailwinds for DIY auto parts stores, which have only increased with this new round of import taxes. AutoZone does source significant merchandise from Canada and Mexico, another pair of Trump trade targets. Still, company executives previously mentioned they expect to pass tariff costs back onto consumers with minimal pushback. 
<figure class="wp-block-image"><img decoding="async" src="https://lh7-rt.googleusercontent.com/docsz/AD_4nXe1NlTVRXnqNYDgnB05k-Fg2zH3MAmFpZlH0xqEC2y2vS68QL3CxW_10hBgTKi80CJ6oCtFNOkV4VZtwPJT1NN4mHcXJj_CFcNhuiLSW581nzb2Koj8cTiF1dS4kRdBo_yGKeIUjw?key=8QceRFt1Oe2Y-2b2sqQGBGox" alt="" /></figure>
AutoZone is one of the ‘big three' auto parts brands in the United States, along with O&#8217;Reilly Automotive and Advance Auto Parts. In our view, AutoZone has the most promise, thanks to its strong margins, reasonable valuations and catalysts from changing consumer trends. The stock trades at 22.5 times forward earnings (compared to 28.9 for ORLY) and received two recent analyst upgrades, including one from Goldman Sachs's Kate McShane, a long-time AZO bear. The company's stock chart also looks promising, with a strong uptrend above the 50-day and 200-day moving averages and an 86.96 Momentum rating on Benzinga Edge's rankings. 
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">CarMax Inc.</h2>
If new car prices rise, more consumers will turn to the used car market, where price hikes are expected to be less impactful. In this scenario, it would benefit to be the largest seller of used cars and trucks on the market &#8211; a title still held by CarMax Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/KMX#NYSE">KMX</a>) despite stiff competition from online startup Carvana.
<figure class="wp-block-image"><img decoding="async" src="https://lh7-rt.googleusercontent.com/docsz/AD_4nXdgPYDonDoAaLcYx0jUvqOW8qNo6hltEKVnlcDlZuRvPNAtIQSmxwLwv2QN8GoP6OTm4oFgw1VnxlDsGg1UiJN1Eb-YR844tbKZKMeInBsoc1qm5fs7ntqCAdrDbWLaE74cJjFmow?key=8QceRFt1Oe2Y-2b2sqQGBGox" alt="" /></figure>
CarMax has the largest fleet of pre-owned vehicles available, and more than 80% of its revenue comes from the sale of used cars and trucks. While selling used vehicles is typically a low-margin business, CarMax has narrowed the gap with Carvana and posted a higher profit margin (1.77% vs. 1.54%) in Q4 2024. CarMax also has a robust financing department that should benefit later this year if the Federal Reserve continues cutting rates and loosening financial conditions. The company trades at 20.2 times forward earnings and just 0.47 times sales (compared to 3.32 P/S for Carvana) and recently triggered a technical buying signal with a bullish MACD crossover. Technical traders should keep an eye on the 200-day moving average for signs of resistance; a breakthrough above this level could trigger more upward momentum.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Ferrari N.V.</h2>
A premier Italian automaker might not be a typical choice to benefit from forceful US auto tariffs, but Ferrari N.V. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RACE#NYSE">RACE</a>) is far from your typical car manufacturer. The typical Ferrari owner is not someone who buys a car for practical reasons, like commuting or hauling cargo. A Ferrari buyer is purchasing a collectible, a rare and expensive vehicle driven for pleasure (and to show off to other rich people). And collectors with the means to purchase a Ferrari aren't going to let tariffs deter them.
<figure class="wp-block-image"><img decoding="async" src="https://lh7-rt.googleusercontent.com/docsz/AD_4nXe1c7aR6ZDtplLHJt74ycUuLxeO26dxptva56d_BPw8o4NIWotJXmPP8YfUIPpHM_f48aH72rn3uI7t541rrChfM3oGvUZG1hkcXGMx7lU2fK6wP4HzU1hiOULRtZ-wcZrpFVuvFg?key=8QceRFt1Oe2Y-2b2sqQGBGox" alt="" /></figure>
Ferrari has some of the strongest margins in car manufacturing- the company reported an impressive 22.8% profit margin in the most recent Q4 earnings call. It also projects 14.5% EPS growth over the next 12 months. It received a solid 69.79 Growth and 79.7 Quality scores on Benzinga Edge rankings. RACE was upgraded from Equal-Weight to Overweight by analysts at Barclays on March 28. The three most recent price targets from UBS, JP Morgan and Evercore indicate a potential upside of nearly 17% from present levels.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Valvoline Inc.</h2>
Valvoline Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/VVV#NYSE">VVV</a>) primarily sells oil and lubricants for cars and trucks through retail stores or its own chain of quick-service franchises, such as Jiffy Lube or Valvoline Instant Oil Change. Valvoline's fast service and products enable outsized profits, and its margins are some of the best in the auto repair industry.
<figure class="wp-block-image"><img decoding="async" src="https://lh7-rt.googleusercontent.com/docsz/AD_4nXc6PxAZQ6dDg2sRQQS4M1Gcwl9fi341gyTENTltPUrsW1_g1CksW3EjOsdgS9HHe7KWXPPg0o4rvX38IgQN6gVhjPJl7HCftkZ549zHX2grW7nzVv-zKeTwR-H4krb60x5H3c-8_g?key=8QceRFt1Oe2Y-2b2sqQGBGox" alt="" /></figure>
Traders will notice a potential double bottom pattern forming on the VVV stock chart, as the price has now twice dropped back to the $35 level that served as resistance in January. The stock also has a 16.82 P/E ratio and expects to grow EPS figures by 18% over the next 12 months. And if consumers are going to hold onto their cars longer, they'll need to take better care of them, which means no longer ignoring that pesky every-3,000-mile oil change.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">The Goodyear Tire and Rubber Co.</h2>
Selling tires isn't exactly a high margin business either, but Goodyear (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GT#NASDAQ">GT</a>) makes our list thanks to expectations of future cost reductions, recent analyst upgrades, and a high domestic production rate. And once again, if consumers hold onto their vehicles longer, replacing wear-and-tear parts like tires will become more imperative.

Goodyear received an upgrade from Deutsche Bank on the final day of March, plus a price target boost from $10 to $13, indicating a potential upside of 45%. Deutsche cited the company's chemicals division divestiture and sale of its off-road tires business as tangible cost-cutting measures. The stock trades at just 4.7 times forward earnings and 0.14 times sales. Benzinga Edge also gives GT an 89.90 Value score, as the stock price appears to be consolidating around the $9 mark. Look for shares to break out of their long-term range for the next leg up.

Shares of auto component stocks are trading lower after President Trump said he will introduce new tariffs on auto and auto parts imports.

Shares of auto-related companies are trading higher amid ongoing volatility, possibly related to tariff delays.

Shares of auto component stocks are trading higher after Trump reportedly delayed auto tariffs.

Ohio Republican Senator Bernie Moreno is all in with <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/03/44092335/trumps-tariffs-threaten-canada-mexico-china-and-american-wallets">President Trump&#8216;s tariffs</a> on auto imports from Canada and Mexico. He says they&#8217;re worth the pain on the industry because they&#8217;ll help curb the flow of undocumented migrants and illegal drugs into the U.S. 
"Trump's 100% right, and all of us should rally around his demand that our two neighbors step up," Moreno said in an interview last week, <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2025-03-03/ohio-senator-says-short-term-tariff-pain-worth-it-for-autos?sref=TBDibEcD">reported</a> Bloomberg. "Until they do what they need to do, yes, am I willing to take some amount of short-term pain? Absolutely, 100%.&#8221;
Auto industry leaders have warned that the measures pose significant risks to industry profits, employment and sales as they prepare for higher costs and disruptions to their North American supply chains.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Auto Workers In The Buckeye State</h2>
Ohio, home to nearly 100,000 auto and related industry workers, is the largest U.S. producer of engines and the second-largest producer of transmissions. Automakers with factories in Ohio include General Motors Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GM#NYSE">GM</a>), Stellantis N.V. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/STLA#NYSE">STLA</a>), Honda Motor Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HMC#NYSE">HMC</a>) and Ford Motor Company (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/F#NYSE">F</a>). The Goodyear Tire &amp; Rubber Company (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GT#NASDAQ">GT</a>) is based in Ohio.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Trump Tariffs Take Effect</h2>
&#8220;The tariffs are all set,&#8221; Trump <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/03/44103406/us-stocks-futures-tumble-as-traders-await-trumps-congress-address-volatility-is-certainly-being-fed-by-trump-20-moves-says-expert">told reporters</a> on Monday afternoon, saying that there was "no room" for Canada or Mexico to negotiate further delays. &#8220;They go into effect tomorrow.&#8221;
The tariffs impose 25% duties on most Canadian and Mexican imports while raising Chinese imports to 20%. These measures apply to approximately $1.5 trillion in annual imports, signaling to markets that Trump is willing to leverage economic pressure to generate revenue and boost domestic manufacturing jobs, noted the outlet.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Moreno Wants To Repeal Emissions Rules</h2>
Moreno, who was a luxury car dealer in Cleveland before entering politics, recently introduced legislation backed by GM, Stellantis, and Toyota Motor Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TM#NYSE">TM</a>) that would repeal emissions rules and give tax breaks to car manufacturers by loosening fuel economy and clean-air regulations.
The GOP Senator, who contends that U.S. auto manufacturing has been under attack from inconsistent regulations, foreign competition and misguided federal policies, said his bill would give automakers greater flexibility and long-term stability, <a href="https://www.cleveland.com/news/2025/02/us-sen-bernie-moreno-introduces-bill-to-repeal-emissions-rules-give-tax-breaks-to-automakers.html">according</a> to Cleveland.com. 
Moreno&#8217;s bill also proposes a 200% tax deduction on autoworker wages, contingent on employers meeting specific criteria, which he argues could help offset the financial strain of tariffs.
