'Potential Nightmare': Ford, GM Thrust In Difficult Situation That Could Benefit Tesla, Says Analyst
Portfolio Pulse from Bibhu Pattnaik
The potential strike by the United Auto Workers (UAW) union could benefit Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:TSLA), according to an analyst. The union has been in negotiations with Ford Motor Co (NYSE:F), General Motors Co (NYSE:GM), and Stellantis NV (NYSE:STLA) for wage increases and other benefits. If no resolution is reached by Sept. 14, a strike involving around 150,000 UAW workers across the U.S. could cost the auto industry $5 billion in 10 days. This could impact year-end production and inventory for GM and Ford. Tesla could benefit from this situation due to its non-reliance on union labor.
