Zacks' 4 auto stock picks are up 1.1% after 3 days, slightly ahead of the S&P 500

3 Days Later — Jul 9, 2026

How are Zacks Investment Research's July auto stock picks performing?

Zacks Investment Research's four auto stock recommendations are showing a modest 1.1% average gain just three days after publication. That edges out the S&P 500's 0.9% return over the same window by 0.2 percentage points.

Two of the four picks are outperforming the benchmark so far. GTX leads the group with a 2.6% gain, while the other stocks trail closer to flat or slightly positive.

The early numbers offer little to extrapolate from—three trading days is too narrow a timeframe to draw meaningful conclusions. Zacks' piece highlighted analyst buy ratings on these names, but the performance spread is still tight and the sample period brief.
