Read MoreHide Full Article
China Automotive Systems (CAAS - Free Report) closed the most recent trading day at $8.24, moving -1.32% from the previous trading session. This change was narrower than the S&P 500's daily loss of 1.38%. At the same time, the Dow lost 1.26%, and the tech-heavy Nasdaq lost 5.67%.
Prior to today's trading, shares of the auto parts supplier had gained 28.86% over the past month. This has lagged the Auto-Tires-Trucks sector's gain of 28.96% and outpaced the S&P 500's gain of 3.87% in that time.
Investors will be hoping for strength from China Automotive Systems as it approaches its next earnings release. On that day, China Automotive Systems is projected to report earnings of $0.07 per share, which would represent a year-over-year decline of 56.25%. Our most recent consensus estimate is calling for quarterly revenue of $138.46 million, down 0.24% from the year-ago period.

Investors should also note China Automotive Systems's current valuation metrics, including its Forward P/E ratio of 17.4. Its industry sports an average Forward P/E of 12.75, so we one might conclude that China Automotive Systems is trading at a premium comparatively.
