Ford Motor Co. closed above the $20 mark for the first time in two decades, with a push toward electric vehicles and deft navigation of the semiconductor supply shortage helping to boost the automaker’s stock to new highs.

The stock closed up 4.46% at $20.15 on Monday, taking its gains this year to nearly 130%. That dwarfs even Tesla Inc’s 65% rally.
