Portfolio Pulse from Upwallstreet
Labor disputes are affecting major automakers like Ford, Stellantis, and General Motors, with potential strikes looming if UAW agreements are rejected. Tesla also faces labor issues in Sweden. In contrast, XPeng and Worksport reported strong Q3 results, with Worksport's North American sales surging and securing significant orders and agreements. Worksport's 'Made in the USA' products and R&D investments position it well in the market. Hyundai, Toyota, and Honda have raised wages, while Tesla's refusal to negotiate in Sweden and price war strategies may impact its margins and market position.
