On this week's episode of The MacRumors Show, we talk through this week's announcement of AppleCare One and automakers' opting out of CarPlay Ultra. AppleCare One is Apple's new subscription for customers to cover multiple devices with a single plan. It starts at $19.99 per month for up to three products, with the ability to add more for $5.99 per month for each additional device. The plan incudes all of the benefits that come with ‌AppleCare‌+, such as unlimited repairs for accidents, priority support, battery coverage, and more.  Subscribers can freely move their devices in and out of the plan at any time. ‌AppleCare‌ One also enables users to add products they already own that are up to four years old, providing they are in good condition, extending beyond the current 60-day window to purchase ‌AppleCare‌+. When a customer trades in a covered product with Apple, it is automatically removed from their ‌AppleCare‌ One plan and replaced with the new device.  ‌AppleCare‌ One also expands theft and loss protection to the iPad and Apple Watch. Previously, it was only available for the iPhone.  ‌AppleCare‌ One's pricing is the same regardless of the products that are covered. Apple says that a customer who enrolls their ‌iPhone‌, ‌iPad‌, and Apple Watch could save up to $11 per month versus enrolling in separate ‌AppleCare‌+ plans for each device. Customers in the United States can now sign up for AppleCare One on their ‌iPhone‌, ‌iPad‌, or Mac, or by visiting an Apple Store. We also discuss the news that automakers including BMW, Mercedes, Audi, Volvo, Polestar, Renault, and General Motors will not support ‌CarPlay‌ Ultra. It seems to be a major retreat from Apple's 2022 announcement, which originally named 14 automakers as future ‌CarPlay‌ Ultra partners. ‌CarPlay‌ Ultra goes far beyond traditional ‌CarPlay‌ by taking control of the entire dashboard experience. The system displays vehicle information like temperature, speed, and fuel levels alongside ‌iPhone‌ apps, creating what Apple calls "a unified and consistent experience across all the driver's screens." Currently, only Aston Martin offers CarPlay Ultra in production vehicles. Hyundai and its Kia and Genesis cars remain committed partners, while Porsche plans future support. Other originally announced brands like Ford and Nissan have provided no updates on their ‌CarPlay‌ Ultra plans.

Toch zijn beleggers enthousiast, want de beurskoers van beide bedrijven ging flink omhoog. Wat zien beleggers dat wij niet zien?

Joe Hegener thinks the market will hit highs in the second half of the year, but likens conditions to a “game of musical chairs.” One of his hot takes is that the euro won't exist in ten years – he thinks the Eurozone will look substantially different in the next decade as populist sentiment sweeps through its members. He also says that traditional automakers will “go the way of the Blackberry,” arguing that they've taken on too much debt to get into lithium-ion batteries when the next generation is already coming.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.

Opeens barstte de bom. Elon Musk was het zo zat dat zijn voormalige vriend Donald Trump zijn Big Beautiful Bill wilde doorvoeren, dat hij niet langer stil kon blijven zitten. Na een week aan boze berichten op X gaat Musk echt in de aanval nadat Trump zegt dat ze geen goede vrienden meer zijn. Trump zou volgens Musk in de Epstein-files staan. Daarmee maakt hij Trump de facto uit als pedofiel. Trump dreigt vervolgens om miljarden dollars aan contracten met de bedrijven van Musk te schrappen. En in reactie daarop verliest Tesla zo'n 150 miljard dollar aan beurswaarde. Wie van de twee lijdt er het meest onder deze ruzie? En ga jij er ook nog wat van voelen? Dat hoor je in deze aflevering. En dan hebben we het ook over de Amerikaanse economie. Eerder deze week schrokken beleggers van cijfers over het aantal vacatures. Onnodige zorgen, blijkt uit een nieuw rapport. Want groei van de economie remt veel minder hard af dan gedacht. Verder leer je iets over de wereld van rook- en knakworsten. De verkoop van Unox gaat namelijk minder soepel dan Unilever had gehoopt. De Autoriteit Consument en Markt wil eerst onderzoeken of de nieuwe koper niet te machtig wordt.

Chuck Zodda and Marc Fandetti discuss Trump saying China's Xi is 'extremely hard to make a deal with' and why that matters. How can the US resolve its trade deficits? Automakers race to find a workaround to China's stranglehold on rare-earth magnets. Todd Lutsky joins the show for his weekly segment, Ask Todd. This week Todd explores irrevocable medicaid trusts.

130 dagen mocht Elon Musk vertoeven in de aanbouw van het Witte Huis. Met zijn Department of Government Efficiency hakte hij in het personeelsbestand en de contracten van de overheid. Maar Democratische senator Elizabeth Warren heeft een rapport op laten stellen, en voor elke dag die Musk aan het werk was uitgezocht hoe hij iets in zijn eigen voordeel kon laten werken. Het Witte Huis gebruiken als Tesla-showroom, zijn SpaceX aan contracten van miljarden dollars helpen, de handelsminister schaamteloos het aandeel Tesla laten promoten: niks was te gek. De volledige lijst hoor je in deze aflevering. Verder kom je te weten waarom de complete autosector op z'n gat dreigt te komen liggen. In reactie op Donald Trumps' importheffingen heeft China namelijk verregaande exportrestricties opgelegd op zeldzame aardmetalen en magneten. Restricties waar ook Europa mee te maken krijgt. En dat kan nog wel eens voor een bizarre wending in de handelsoorlog gaan zorgen. Want de oplossing voor dat probleem zou kunnen zijn dat autobouwers hun productie verplaatsen naar... China. Dat land steekt trouwens de middelvinger op naar de VS. Trump regelde een enorme deal voor 'Amerika's beste vliegtuigbouwer', Boeing. China helpt de concurrentie juist een handje en maakt een plan voor een bestelling van honderden vliegtuigen bij Airbus. En we vertellen je wat er in de mail stond die Luuk Holtappels en Mike Mulders van hun baas Bob Homan kregen. Hint: ze moeten gaan vechten voor een plekje in de parkeergarage van ING.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Shoot us a Text.Episode #1047: Kia's veteran apprenticeship program is creating certified techs and stronger stores, while “American-made” is a lot harder to accomplish than it sounds. Plus, OpenAI is taking on software engineering with a new update.Show Notes with links:Kia America's Veterans Technician Apprenticeship Program is helping dealers find, train, and retain top-tier tech talent by giving veterans a fast path to certification—and the results are showing up in the service drive.Launched in 2023, the program combines mentorship, on-the-job training, and a 30-day certification bootcamp.Approved by the DOL and VA, it offers tax credits and GI Bill stipends to offset dealer costs.462 Kia dealerships have enrolled; 278 veterans—including 16 women—have been hired so far.Participating stores report higher appointment volume, productivity, and lower tech turnover.Speaking about program graduate Caleb Samsel, Anthony Catalanotto of Generation Auto Group said “He's a leader. He says the right things. He does the right things. He's always in his uniform. He's always working hard. If someone can't figure something out, he's right with them.”Despite political pressure and patriotic branding, building a truly American-made vehicle is still more fantasy than factory reality. Ford's latest Expedition highlights just how global even U.S.-assembled vehicles remain.The Expedition is assembled in Kentucky, but only 58% of its parts are North American, with key components like engines and semiconductors still coming from overseas.Automakers say sourcing 90% U.S. content could raise vehicle prices $10K–$20K, pricing out many buyers.Past vehicles reached 90%+ U.S./Canada content; today's tech and globalization make that rare.“We can move everything to the U.S., but if every Ford is $50,000, we're not going to win,” said Ford CEO Jim Farley.OpenAI is expanding its capabilities in one of AI's most competitive frontiers: software engineering.

Recently, he has given automakers a break on the tariffs he put in place, hoping to drive more auto manufacturing to the United States. So where do the tariffs currently stand?

The [CB] will try to force empty shelves and try to convince the people that it's Trump, this will fail. Retailers have been preparing and other nations will fill the gap.

This is just the beginning, the narrative will continue until Trump and team shows how they over-through the US Gov and duly elected President in 2020.

Brussels has reportedly admitted that freeing itself from the dominance of US tech companies is unrealistic, and that "cooperation will remain significant across the technological value chain." EU states remain dependent on US tech companies, and US President Donald Trump's stance on Europe has the bloc fearing for its sovereignty in global technologies, including social media and cloud services. Another concern is linked to the ability of US law enforcement bodies to get access to data processed by Amazon, Microsoft and Google, the paper said. The draft of the strategy also signals that the EU has very few fresh ideas that may help Europe become an important player in the global technology field, the paper added.

In the next phase of the anti-Trump tariff agenda, approximately 3 months from now it will begin, we will see/hear a constant drumbeat of empty shelves, missing parts and missing products.  Whether factually true, or whether the shortages are an outcome of a strategy by the ILWA to assist the shortage narrative, the overall objective will be to blame President Trump for everything from shortages of medicine to shortages of parts to fix, repair or maintain consumer products.

The directive is the result of conversations directly with domestic auto manufacturers, a senior Commerce Department official said on a call with reporters.   The administration will offer automakers that finish their vehicles domestically a 15% offset of the cost of the tariffs. Automakers can choose how to allocate the offset.

Canada's Prime Minister Mark Carney took aim at President Donald Trump while claiming victory in his country's federal elections. Meanwhile, Trump is marking his 100th day in office by focusing on the economy, but voters are so far unimpressed. Automakers may soon get another tariff reprieve.
