The major partners of Aston Martin

Of course, the Aston Martin Group also has allies and regularly implements strategic partnerships with other companies with the aim of boosting its sales and growth or developing new technological models. Here are a few of its more recent partnerships:

TAG Heuer

In 2018, it was with this company that Aston Martin Racing became an official partner. This subsidiary of the French luxury products group LVMH thereby became a favoured partner of this automobile brand in the official watches sector.

Mercedes

Another interesting partnership is that implemented by Aston Martin with the Mercedes Group. This particular alliance is a technical partnership with the sports section of this German group.

The factors in favour of a rise in the Aston Martin share price:

To be able to anticipate future changes in the Aston Martin share price on the stock market, you need to know about the company and its resources. In this context, it is interesting to understand the main strengths and weaknesses that represent the advantages and disadvantages of this stock.
Let's start by summarising the different advantages of this stock with the strengths of this company:

First of all, we can of course talk about Aston Martin's long experience in its industry, which allows it to benefit from a high brand equity and a strong heritage.
The brand's historical values also contribute to a strong connection with customers and customer loyalty.
The Aston Martin Group's work force is another of its key strengths. The company aims to hire and retain a team of highly skilled engineers and designers, which ensures that it can offer and produce cars that are both stylish and powerful.
The brand is also able to stand out from the competition thanks to the luxury and high-end comfort of its vehicles, but also thanks to its services, which are recognised as being of high quality.
Innovation is also a strong point of this company. Indeed, the group's vehicles have advanced and innovative technological features, thanks in particular to the company's strong investment in research and development.
The strong presence of the Aston Martin group in various racing and motorsport events also enables it to benefit from quality advertising and numerous communication media to attract its customers.
Finally, the group also invests heavily in communication and advertising, which helps it maintain a strong brand image with the general public.

The factors in favour of a drop in the Aston Martin share price:

Of course, in addition to these advantages, Aston Martin also has a number of flaws and weaknesses that you should take into account in your analysis.
Firstly, Aston Martin Group has a slightly lower market penetration than its competitors, particularly in certain geographical areas and especially in certain less affluent customer targets.
We can also underline another important element which penalises the group in relation to the competition and which concerns the limitation of its product portfolio. Indeed, in emerging markets, the group's cars are still poorly represented, which represents a significant loss of earnings for the brand.
Another element that can weigh on the price of this stock by exerting pressure on sales and therefore on the profitability of the company concerns the price of fuel. Indeed, the group's revenues are often inversely correlated to the price of oil and the current recovery in prices tends to reduce its return.
Similarly, government policies and taxes related to the environment can also affect Aston Martin's sales and development.
Other major weaknesses include competition from the other major automotive giants, which reduces Aston Martin's ability to gain market share, despite the high barriers to entry in this sector.
Finally, with regard to the competition faced by the Aston Martin group, it is worth noting that the product innovations and engineering of the company's competitors are increasingly qualitative.
