The Automotive Troublemaker w/ Paul J Daly and Kyle Mountsier
Shoot us a Text.Episode #1054: We're kicking off Tuesday week with a look at surging used car sales and shrinking supply, BYD's aggressive EV price cuts in China, and a Waffle House partnership that brings hash browns and high-speed charging together in the South.Show Notes with links:Automotive News released its top Used Car retailers list showing that the stabilizing of the 2024 market led to some big gains. However, the current complexities and quickly shrinking market day supply is testing even the best players.Used-only dealers like CarMax, Carvana, and DriveTime saw strong 2024 growth as supply chains normalized, with Carvana up 33% year-over-year.Dealers are creatively sourcing inventory—prioritizing trade-ins and direct-from-customer purchases to avoid costly auctions.The current used vehicle supply stands at just a 43-day market supply, the lowest since 2021, with lower-price vehicles hardest to find.Tariff fears have driven consumers to buy quickly, pushing prices for the top 50 used models to an average of nearly $29,000“There isn't a lot of room for error anymore in the post-COVID used-car world,” said Bill Solko, dealer principal of Automotive Avenues.Meanwhile Cox Automotive's Jonathan Smoke warned, 2025 is going to be a roller coaster for this industry,” BYD just launched a fresh round of EV price cuts in China, triggering a market shake-up that's pummeling stocks and ramping pressure on rivals like Tesla.BYD slashed prices across several models, including a 20% cut on the sub-$10,000 Seagull hatchback now priced at an equivalent of $7,780The Chinese EV market is nearing 50% penetration — five times the U.S. rate — largely due to aggressive pricing strategies.EV maker stocks, including BYD, Li Auto, and Geely, fell sharply after the announcement, signaling investor anxiety.BYD's growing profit cushion from 2019–2024 gives it room to undercut less profitable competitors.“This new price war will put even more pressure on Tesla,” Electrek reported, especially as new players like Xiaomi ramp up.In a match made in Southern heaven, bp pulse and Waffle House are joining forces to bring 400kW ultrafast EV charging to your next roadside breakfast stop.Starting in 2026, Waffle House locations across Georgia, Texas, Florida, and beyond will host six-bay charging stations.The chargers will support both CCS and NACS connectors and deliver up to 200 miles of range in about 15 minutes.The 24/7 diner vibe adds much-needed comfort and reliability to the EV charging experience.This builds on bp pulse's growing U.S. network, which includes partnerships with Hertz and 8,000+ retail locations.“Charging up while fueling up on an All-Star Special will be convenient and fast,” said Waffle House Innovation Director David Repp.Join Paul J Daly and Kyle Mountsier every morning for the Automotive State of the Union podcast as they connect the dots across car dealerships, retail trends, emerging tech like AI, and cultural shifts—bringing clarity, speed, and people-first insight to automotive leaders navigating a rapidly changing industry.Get the Daily Push Back email at https://www.asotu.com/ JOIN the conversation on LinkedIn at: https://www.linkedin.com/company/asotu/
In this latest episode of Courtside Financial, I analyze two critical developments affecting the EV market and NIO stock. First, I break down Li Auto's surprisingly conservative estimate of just 50,000 pure electric vehicles for 2025 - merely 7% of their total 700,000 vehicle sales target. What does this strategic decision reveal about the hyper-competitive "Red Sea" EV market in China?Then I expose a growing crisis that few are discussing - the severe shortage of qualified EV technicians. With fewer than 100,000 maintenance personnel equipped to service over 31 million new energy vehicles in China, repair shops are either unable or unwilling to work on EVs despite offering monthly salaries exceeding 10,000 yuan.Discover how these market dynamics might actually strengthen NIO's position and why their comprehensive ecosystem approach could provide a competitive edge as the industry matures. Get my objective analysis on what these developments mean for NIO investors and the broader EV sector.Join our Discord community for more in-depth discussion: https://discord.gg/GSbp4wRFollow me for weekly insights on the EV market, financial analysis, and technology trends that impact your investment decisions.Copyright Disclaimer under section 107 of the Copyright Act of 1976, allowance is made for "fair use" for purposes such as criticism, comment, news reporting, teaching, scholarship, education and research.

Is NIO in trouble?
Chinese automakers are accelerating their forays into the burgeoning humanoid robot sector as a means of strategic diversification, leveraging existing technological expertise and manufacturing capabilities in smart vehicles amid intense competition.中国汽车制造商正加速进军蓬勃兴起的人形机器人领域,以此作为战略多元化的手段,利用现有的智能汽车技术专长和制造能力应对激烈的竞争。Xiaomi, a high-profile relative newcomer in the smart electric vehicle sector, said on Sunday that it is working on preparing its robot, CyberOne, to work on its vehicle production lines. The consumer electronics giant unveiled the humanoid robot back in 2022.2月23日,智能电动汽车领域备受瞩目的新秀小米公司表示,正在推进其人形机器人CyberOne在自家汽车生产线上工作。这家消费电子巨头早在2022年就发布了这款人形机器人。GAC, a Chinese partner of Toyota and Honda, unveiled its humanoid robot GoMate in December, which stands and moves on wheels.2024年12月,丰田汽车、本田汽车的中国合作伙伴广汽集团推出了人形机器人GoMate,该机器人可以站立并使用轮足进行移动。The State-owned automaker said it will start mass production of the robot's components—developed in house—in 2025, and the robots are expected to work in its vehicle assembly plants from 2026.该国有汽车制造商表示,将于2025年实现自研机器人零部件批量生产;从2026年起,该机器人将在自家汽车装配厂工作。Li Xiang, founder and CEO of Li Auto, the first Chinese NEV startup to be profitable, said in a December interview that the company "will definitely do humanoid robots".理想汽车是中国首个实现盈利的新能源汽车初创企业。去年12月,其创始人兼首席执行官李想在一次采访中表示,该公司“100%会做人形机器人”。Analysts said automakers' entry into robotics stems from overlapping technologies between smart EVs and humanoid machines.分析人士表示,汽车制造商进入机器人领域,是因为智能电动汽车和人形机器人之间存在技术重叠。Also, their bulk purchases of components, many of which are from auto parts suppliers, give them cost advantages over smaller rivals.此外,汽车制造商可批量采购机器人零部件,其中许多来自汽车零部件供应商,这使它们比规模较小的竞争对手更具成本优势。Autonomous driving systems, a battleground for automakers, have become a treasure trove for robotics, said Chen Meng, a Beijing-based independent auto analyst.北京独立汽车分析师陈蒙表示,自动驾驶系统是汽车制造商的竞技场,现已成为机器人领域的宝库。"Sensors like lidar and cameras, AI algorithms for object recognition, and high-precision motors—all originally designed for vehicles—are now being repurposed to teach robots to 'see', 'think', and 'move'," said Chen.陈蒙说:“像激光雷达和摄像头等传感器、用于物体识别的人工智能算法以及高精度电机,这些最初都是为汽车设计的,现在正被重新利用,教机器人‘看'、‘思考'、‘移动'。”NEV startup Xpeng's robot—Iron—unveiled in November, will feature in-house developed chips. The robot has hands and arms that have 15 degrees of freedom, compared to Tesla chief Elon Musk's Optimus, which has 22 degrees of freedom.去年11月,新能源汽车初创企业小鹏汽车推出了机器人Iron,该机器人将采用自主研发的芯片。这款机器人的手部有15个可动自由度,而特斯拉首席执行官埃隆•马斯克的Optimus机器人双手拥有22个自由度。Also, entering the humanoid robot sector positions participating automakers at the forefront of a rapidly evolving industry, with potential applications across various areas, including healthcare, manufacturing and consumer services.此外,汽车制造商进入人形机器人领域,可以处在这个快速发展行业的前沿,而该行业在医疗保健、制造业、消费服务等各个领域都有应用潜力。That offers a new growth engine, which might prove to be more powerful over time than many can imagine, for automakers that are seeing profit declines amid white-hot competition.汽车制造商由于竞争白热化而导致利润下降,进入这一领域刚好提供新的增长引擎,并且随着时间的推移,这一引擎的威力可能会超乎许多人的想象。Musk has called Optimus a potential " $10 trillion business", dwarfing Tesla's auto revenue.马斯克称,Optimus机器人是有潜力创造“10万亿美元的业务”,甚至可能超过特斯拉的汽车业务收入。Chinese firms are equally bullish.中国企业对此也同样持乐观态度。Xiaomi's CyberOne, which can work as a home assistant, aims to anchor its ecosystem of smart devices.小米的CyberOne机器人可以作为家庭助手,与其智能设备生态系统无缝连接。In a Sina Weibo post, He Xiaopeng, CEO of Xpeng, wrote, "Robotics is a natural extension of our smart EV ecosystem."小鹏汽车首席执行官何小鹏在微博上写道:“机器人是我们智能电动汽车生态系统的自然扩展。”The total addressable market for humanoid robots worldwide is projected to reach $38 billion by 2035, up more than sixfold from a previous projection of $6 billion, Goldman Sachs Research analyst Jacqueline Du, head of China Industrial Technology research, wrote in a report.高盛研究部中国工业科技分析师杰奎琳·杜在一份报告中写道,全球人形机器人的总可寻址市场预计将在2035年达到380亿美元,较此前预测的60亿美元增长逾6倍。There are short-term, instant benefits for automakers as well, said Zhang Xiang, a fellow at the Research Center of Automobile Industry Innovation of the North China University of Technology.北方工业大学汽车产业创新研究中心研究员张翔表示,汽车制造商也能获得短期的即时收益。"It gives automakers such labels as 'innovation' and 'technology', which will help their appeal in the minds of potential car buyers and may help boost their performance in the stock market as well," said Zhang.张翔说:“它给汽车制造商贴上了‘创新'和‘技术'的标签,这将有助于吸引潜在购车者,也可能有助于提振它们在股市的表现。”Following a team of humanoid robots performing at the Spring Festival Gala in early February, a number of companies in the sector have been seeing their prices surge in China's stock market.继2月初一组人形机器人在春晚舞台上表演后,该领域多家公司在中国股市的股价飙升。high-profileadj.引人注目的,备受关注的

Après Volkswagen et son robot de charge présenté en 2020, c'est au tour de Huawei d'entrer dans la course à la recharge autonome. Le géant chinois, déjà connu pour ses smartphones et sa voiture électrique SU7, élargit son écosystème électrique avec une innovation spectaculaire : une borne de recharge équipée d'un bras robotisé.Imaginez un futur où recharger votre véhicule électrique ne nécessite plus aucune intervention humaine. C'est ce que promet Huawei avec sa technologie avancée. Grâce à un système de conduite autonome, les voitures compatibles, comme la berline électrique Maextro S800, se garent automatiquement à proximité de la borne. Le clapet de recharge s'ouvre de lui-même, et un bras robotisé connecte la prise au port de charge, sans que le conducteur n'ait à quitter son siège. Ce n'est pas un simple concept : Huawei assure que cette solution est prête à être déployée dans les prochains mois. Et ce n'est pas tout. La borne offre une puissance de recharge impressionnante, allant jusqu'à 600 kW, rendant les temps d'attente bien plus courts. En outre, cette technologie n'est pas exclusive à Huawei. Elle est déjà compatible avec des véhicules de marques comme BYD, Li Auto ou Aito, ouvrant ainsi la voie à une adoption massive.Alors que les infrastructures de recharge deviennent un enjeu clé dans la transition énergétique, cette innovation pourrait transformer notre façon d'utiliser les véhicules électriques, en particulier dans les environnements urbains où l'espace est limité. Les premières bornes devraient être installées en Chine, mais leur potentiel mondial est indéniable. Huawei s'inscrit ainsi dans la vision d'un futur où la recharge est rapide, autonome et accessible à tous. Hébergé par Acast. Visitez acast.com/privacy pour plus d'informations.

The editorial is by Nancy Cooper, and the full company rankings can be seen at newsweek.com. Here are a few quotes from Ms. Cooper's introduction to the rankings. “Selected from the 2,000 largest publicly traded companies headquartered in the U.S., each winner received scores based on the three pillars of ESG… The analysis is based on data from 30 key performance indicators, such as energy usage and charitable donations, as well as a reputation survey of more than 26,000 U.S. consumers.

Finance, I thought to include it. It's titled Why Sunrun (RUN) Is Among the Best Wind Power and Solar Stocks to Invest in Now. The article is by Mashaid Ahmed. Here are some quotes from it. “While the outcome of the US election and the anticipated policies of the new administration pose short-term challenges to renewable energy, the long-term outlook remains cautiously optimistic. Sunrun Inc. (NASDAQ:RUN) Number of Hedge Fund Holders: 43 Sunrun is a leading provider of residential solar energy solutions, offering solar installations, battery storage, and energy services.

It's by Jeff Reeves, reviewed by John Divine, and found at money.usnews.com. Now some quotes from the article. “An analysis by Gartner estimates that the number of EV Companies in use will grow 33% in 2025 to bring the total number of electric cars and trucks to 85 million in total. That figure will be primarily thanks to brisk adoption rates in China (58% growth) and Europe (24% growth), which together are projected to represent 82% of the total EV market next year, according to Gartner. For investors who want to cash in on EV stocks and the rise of electric vehicles, it's critical to look beyond the usual suspects in the U.S. and take a truly global approach to the industry. With that in mind, some of the hottest EV stocks to buy for 2025 include: 1. Tesla Inc. (TSLA) Market value: $1.2 trillion Tesla has a huge chunk of the marketplace, with predictions of nearly 1.8 million vehicle deliveries across all of 2024. What's more, strong momentum after Election Day, thanks to Musk's close associations with President-elect Donald Trump, has pushed Tesla stock up about 50% on the year even as other electric vehicle stocks have struggled… Tesla remains the go-to EV stock for many investors as we enter 2025. 2. BYD Co. Ltd. (BYDDY) Market value: $106 billion Chinese firm BYD is… the top electric vehicle manufacturer in the world… currently selling more than 500,000 ‘new energy vehicles' per month – a potential pace of 6 million annually going forward… the local appeal of this Chinese company amid the uncertainty around tariffs and trade policies all but ensures this home-grown EV stock will thrive in China across 2025 as regional demand remains strong. 3. Volkswagen AG (VWAGY) Market value: $43 billion Volkswagen remains the largest vehicle manufacturer on the planet and has the same local appeal in Europe that BYD might have in China amid the current talk of trade wars. EV Companies are a modest share of total output… In October, the firm reported battery electric vehicles (not hybrids) topped 500,000 units across the first three quarters of 2024. That puts it on pace for nearly 700,000 vehicles on the full year – and with goals of fully electrifying its fleet by 2030, Volkswagen is definitely an EV stock to watch. 4. Li Auto Inc. (LI) Market value: $24 billion Much smaller than these other firms and currently bleeding cash as it invests aggressively in growth, Li Auto is nevertheless a top EV stock to watch because of its tremendous growth path. It delivered 48,740 vehicles in November 2024, up 18.8% year over year, and is currently on pace to top 500,000 units on the year… A big reason for that is because of its premium appeal, with its Li AD Max accounting for more than 80% of orders for models in China priced above roughly $55,000. Admittedly, shares of LI stock have struggled in 2024 but these sales figures are incredibly encouraging for investors who aren't afraid of taking on a bit more risk to invest in an upstart EV stock versus an established leader. 5. Nio Inc. (NIO) Market value: $10 billion Another junior EV stock operating deep in the red, Nio is putting up impressive growth metrics even if its share performance hasn't been grand in 2024… Nio delivered a record 61,855 units in the third quarter and estimates it will have as many as 75,000 EV deliveries in the fourth quarter. That pace of 300,000 units annually doesn't seem like much compared with other firms, but considering the firm delivered about half that total in 2023 there is a lot to like about where the firm is headed. What's more, like BYD and Li, this is a Chinese firm with local appeal in the fastest-growing market for EV Companies on the planet. That gives it an added tailwind that some Western EV stocks may lack in 2025. 6. Albemarle Corp. (ALB) Market value: $12 billion The company is one of the leading lithium miners globally, with production capacity of 225,000 metric tons and plans to roughly triple capacity by 2030. Supply chain challenges for lithium are tricky, and trade policies could make the situation even more complex in 2025. But as a commodity stock that profits in part based on broader market-wide pricing trends, any shortages or supply bottlenecks will naturally boost lithium prices if things don't go well – and that will naturally benefit Albemarle's bottom line as a result. 7. ChargePoint Holdings Inc. (CHPT) Market value: $600 million ChargePoint is the largest electric vehicle charging company in the United States, with more charging ports and locations than any other network. Specifically, ChargePoint boasts 70,000 plugs at nearly 39,000 stations. In fact, more than 4 in 10 charging ports nationwide are operated by ChargePoint. The company is small and currently unprofitable, so it definitely carries a level of risk, but investors who aren't keen on putting money behind firms headquartered in Beijing or Shanghai may find this closer-to-home play a bit more palatable.” End quotes. ------------------------------------------------------------- Additional Article of Interest 1.

China is transitioning from a property-led economy to one focused on advanced manufacturing. It already leads the world in electric car production and the batteries that power them. And it's also a growing force in renewables, robotics and biotech. Investment manager Helen Xiong discusses some of the growth companies involved, why concerns about overcapacity seem overstated and why rising trade barriers have implications for stocks traded inside and outside China. Background:Helen Xiong is an investment manager in Baillie Gifford's Global Alpha Team and recently became joint deputy manager of The Monks Investment Trust. In this episode of Short Briefings on Long Term Thinking she discusses why global growth investors can't ignore China even if they don't directly own stakes in any of its companies.She describes how the country has made ‘advanced manufacturing' a strategic priority, laying the foundations for future growth. This has already yielded results, with companies such as the electric vehicle maker Li Auto and battery producer CATL creating long-term value for shareholders – with the prospect of more to come.Xiong suggests that ‘rising trade barriers' are one consequence of Western nations' seeking to protect domestic industries and discusses how she takes this into account when deciding which companies to back. In addition, she considers the implications of Chinese retaliation and what that might mean for some of the US and Europe's leading exporters.Xiong also shares her view on recent stimulus by the Chinese central bank and government agencies, focusing on signals of a shift that could create long-term shareholder value.

This podcast starts with a discussion on the NEV take rate hitting 52% and Tu points out that it's a massive number that is also getting help from the steep dropoff of ICE sales. They also both take a few moments to discuss the softness in demand that Tesla is feeling and how its likely adding pressure for them to continue to cut prices in order to keep the factory running and keep factory utilization high.They then also scrutinize Li Auto's original aggressive 2024 sales forecast and how that's been dialed back as well. Tu again reiterates that within the next couple years, Chinese IP will be in European branded vehicles both sold in China and Europe. The conversation then shifts to the potential additional EU tariffs on Chinese imported EVs and which brands and products will likely be affected and retaliated on. Tu closes out the podcast with a summary of a Reuters interview of Carlos Tavares, Stellantis Global CEO.

The segment closes out on Tu and Lei talking a bit about the new Li Auto L6, their smallest EREV in the lineup, but still a clone of the others. Lei lists out all the debuts that will occur during the lead up and at the auto show.
There's a lot of outrage currently about China's attempts to grow its EV market, at the expense of the US economy. But the truth is that the Chinese EV market wouldn't be where it is today without the generous funding it received (and continues to receive) from the US, Western governments, and multinational companies looking to cash in on the next big thing.So let's talk about the ways in which China's EV industry is funded by the US, both directly and indirectly, partly with the help of your pension fund.Chapters (00:00) Introduction (03:15) Timeline of China's EV industry (12:20) The threat of Chinese made EVs (15:00) #1: The West was happy with China's EV development (when it benefited them) (20:40) #2: China's EV market was funded with US FDI and investor capital(28:45) #3: China's investment scene is better than Silicon Valley(39:30) The West as get rich quick schemeBuy me a coffee: https://www.buymeacoffee.com/sinobabblepodSupport the Show.Sign up for Buzzsprout to launch your podcasting journey: https://www.buzzsprout.com/?referrer_id=162442Subscribe to the Sinobabble Newsletter: https://sinobabble.substack.com/Support Sinobabble on Buy me a Coffee: https://www.buymeacoffee.com/Sinobabblepod
