Director John L Thornton buys 10,600 F shares at $14.05; stock now -22.2% from 52-week high
John L Thornton purchased 10,600 shares of Ford Motor Co at $14.05 on 2026-06-23, increasing his holdings to 486,685 shares. The transaction occurs with Ford trading at $13.84, down -22.2% from its 52-week high of $17.78 and down -7.3% over the prior 30 days. Thornton's cross-ticker track record shows mixed timing: his 2 prior open-market buys averaged +5.3% over 30 days but -1.6% over 90 days, with only a 50% win rate at the 90-day mark. At Ford specifically, his prior two buys (most recently on 2025-11-14) showed positive 30-day returns (+4.3% and +6.3%) but divergent 90-day outcomes (+6.1% and -9.4%). Ford's fundamentals remain challenged: the company was unprofitable over its most recent full fiscal year, reported $43.3B in quarterly revenue but only $2.6B in net income, and shows minimal annual growth at +1.2%.
