The path was a steady grind lower: Monday opened at $189.20, Tuesday fell to $186.71, Wednesday dropped to $183.10, and Friday set the week low at $180.905 before settling at $181.49. The weekly range was 4.69%, with Thursday volume rising to 380,631 shares, roughly 30% above the daily average of 292,709. ## Key Events The week’s news ran through China JV plans, US sales and electrification. Early in the week, GAC Group said it plans to acquire 50% of FAW Toyota via share issuance, aiming to coordinate operations at Toyota’s two China joint ventures. Toyota’s August sales and production fell for a second straight month, while Thailand’s August car production rose 10.93% year on year. From Thursday the US news flow thickened: Toyota announced a $1.34 billion investment in an Argentina production plant, and the Toyota Battery Center of North America was unveiled at its Michigan R&D campus. On Friday, third-quarter US sales showed a marginal rise, supported by hybrid demand, with over 60% of Toyotas sold in the quarter electrified. ## Analyst Ratings Four brokers cover Toyota Motor: two rate it buy and two rate it overweight, with no hold, underweight or sell ratings. The consensus rating is buy, and the consensus target price is $234.08, about 28.98% above the latest $181.49. Targets range narrowly from $230.00 to $239.31. Within the auto manufacturers industry of 30 names, Toyota ranks 14th by analyst rating. ## The Week Ahead The week ahead leans on US macro data for market tone: Monday brings the S&P Global services PMI final and ISM non-manufacturing PMI, Tuesday trade balance figures, and Wednesday EIA crude oil inventories. Toyota’s own results are not due until 5 November for its fiscal Q2, with the market looking for EPS of $2.735 and revenue of $85.5 billion. Whether the US sales momentum carries through will be a key question before that report. ## In Short Toyota’s share price ground lower this week and lagged the broader market, yet the company-specific signals on electrification and US demand were not weak. Brokers hold a buy consensus with a target about 29% above the spot price, while the valuation sits at 7.48x P/E and 0.93x P/B. In the latest trading session, capital flow was mixed: large orders were net buyers, while small orders were net sellers. The tension between price weakness, a buy consensus and a low valuation will be tested by whether US sales strength translates into higher earnings expectations and what the November report signals. *This article is generated by LongbridgeAI from market data, for information only and not investment advice.* ### Related Stocks - [TM.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/TM.US.md) ## Related News & Research - [GAC plans to buy 50% of FAW Toyota to coordinate operations at Toyota's 2 China joint ventures](https://longbridge.com/en/news/300319092.md) - [Guangzhou Automobile Group to Acquire 50% of FAW Toyota via Share Issuance](https://longbridge.com/en/news/300324580.md) - [Greg Abel-Led Berkshire Hathaway Owns 3 Consumer Stocks.
