Elon Musk asserts that Trump's 25% auto tariffs won't significantly impact Tesla, as the company manufactures all its US-sold vehicles domestically. While Tesla's stock rose amid competitors' declines, concerns linger about potential retaliatory tariffs and rising international parts costs. Musk acknowledged the tariffs' significant effects, despite investor optimism.
UBS analysts warn that the U.S. auto sector faces significant challenges due to new 25% tariffs on imported cars and parts, impacting automakers and suppliers like Gentex Corporation, which is trading near 52-week lows despite strong financial health. Tesla and Rivian may be better positioned as their production is U.S.-based, while General Motors might consider relocating production to avoid tariffs, though this would require substantial investment. Gentex reported a record annual revenue of $2.31 billion for 2024, despite missing quarterly earnings expectations, and anticipates revenue guidance of $2.4 to $2.45 billion for 2025.
Rivian has launched a new micromobility startup named Also, securing $105 million in funding from Eclipse Ventures. The venture aims to create smaller, affordable electric vehicles, with plans to introduce a bike-like product in the US and Europe by next year, and future expansion into Asia and South America. CEO RJ Scaringe will serve on the board, while Chris Yu, former VP at Rivian, takes on the role of president.
Tesla is recalling all 46,100 delivered Cybertrucks to address issues with stainless steel panels coming loose, prompted by a complaint to the NHTSA. The recall will replace the bonding agent with a more durable adhesive, ensuring safety and preventing road hazards. Despite its robust features, the Cybertruck has faced multiple delays and recalls, falling short of initial expectations.
US stock markets rose last week, driven by tech stocks and delays in new tariffs, with the Nasdaq 100 hitting a new high. However, a surprising 0.9% drop in retail sales for January raised concerns about GDP estimates. Investor focus now shifts to the upcoming FOMC minutes and earnings reports from major companies.
American Century Companies Inc. increased its Rivian Automotive holdings by 4.1%, owning 154,336 shares valued at $2.07 million. Other firms, including Envestnet Asset Management and Mercer Global Advisors, also raised their stakes, contributing to 66.25% institutional ownership. Rivian's stock has a current "Hold" rating, with a consensus price target of $15.52, while recent trading saw shares down 2.1% at $13.01.
Deutsche Bank has upgraded General Motors to a "Buy" rating, citing strategic shifts in China and Cruise, strong execution, and an aggressive share buyback strategy. Despite cyclical risks and potential policy changes, GM is expected to perform well, with fourth-quarter earnings anticipated at the higher end of guidance and flat EBIT projected for 2025. In contrast, Ford may face EBIT declines due to pricing challenges, while Rivian navigates uncertain demand and Tesla aims for significant growth through AI advancements.
Baillie Gifford & Co. increased its stake in Rivian Automotive by 52.5%, now owning over 50 million shares valued at $565 million. Other institutional investors, including Charles Schwab and AQR Capital Management, also boosted their holdings significantly. Rivian's stock currently holds a "Hold" rating among analysts, with a price target raised to $14 by UBS Group, indicating a potential downside from its current price.
