Ford Motor Company (NYSE:F) shares are trading higher amid overall US market strength following House passage of a $1.2 trillion infrastructure bill. The bill is expected to benefit industrials and EV-related companies.

Ford holds a stake in electric vehicle automaker Rivian, which is expected to IPO as soon as this week.

Ford shares were trading higher last week after the company announced a cash tender offer to buyback up to $5 billion of the company's higher-cost debt and the company also reported October electrified vehicle sales were up 195% year-over-year.
