    Automakers are experiencing a pivot: Analyst

    The auto sector experienced a challenging week, with major players Tesla (TSLA), Ford (F), and General Motors (GM) all reporting weaker-than-expected earnings. Dan Levy, Barclays senior autos analyst, joins Market Domination to discuss the current state of the auto industry. Levy identifies a trend in the auto industry: "a pivot to demand constraints and away from supply constraints." He explains that in recent years, demand was strong while supply was weak. However, "that's really flipped this year," with automakers now "grappling with this reality" of softer demand. Regarding the potential impact of the upcoming election on the electric vehicle (EV) market, Levy notes that automakers will likely continue with their product planning cycles "regardless of who is in office". However, he points out that a Trump-Vance administration could potentially change the Inflation Reduction Act's EV tax purchase credit and might lead to softer regulatory mandates for the industry.

    Musk is always in the news. What it signals for his companies

    Billionaire Elon Musk is widely known for taking the lead on multiple ventures while juggling responsibilities as CEO of electric vehicle maker Tesla (TSLA). The Musk umbrella covers his private aerospace company SpaceX, the new AI startup xAI, infrastructure operator The Boring Company, and X which Musk rebranded from Twitter after acquiring it in October 2022. Musk often makes headlines for reasons beyond his business achievements due to his controversial public persona and, more recently, his vocal support of former President Trump in his 2024 reelection bid. So why does it seem like the news is "all Elon all the time" in the finance world? Julie Hyman provides an overview of the extensive coverage Musk receives on the Yahoo Finance platform. She details Musk's various companies and accomplishments, while also highlighting Tesla's particular popularity among Yahoo Finance viewers and investors who use the site for research.
