Brendan Appel of The Sons of Speed sits in for Jill this week. Brendan and Tom opened the show by complaining about the extreme heat lingering over the Chicago area. Tom then noted that Jill was correct last week when she suggested that Toyota had a 20-percent stake in Subaru. Tom had suggested a lower figure. Still in the first segment, Brendan and Tom acknowledged the passing of the TLX, Acura's excellent midsize sedan which has struggled in the marketplace for several year. The sporty 4-door will be discontinued after the 2025 model year. Brendan shared details of a video just posted at We Are Motor Drive (host site to the Sons of Speed). Brendan and “Sons” partner Paul Herrold spent time with the all-new, electric, Dodge Charger Daytona sedan. Brendan and Paul were generally delighted with the new Dodge EV, but have some thoughts on how Dodge can make the vehicle more generally appealing. In the second segment, Brendan and Tom welcome Ram Executive Vice President of Retail and Commercial Demand, Nate Buelow to the show. Nate updated the hosts on a number of important changes to the Ram line, including a new drivetrain warranty, more-affordable trim levels, and the return of the Hemi V8 engine. Nate also discussed Ram's return to the NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series for 2026. In the last segment, Brendan is subjected to Tom's “Dodge!” quiz, and someone mentioned the Chrysler Cordoba.

As we enter the final week of reporting season, the Australian market is set to open in the red, following the Dow Jones dropping 700 points on Friday in the US, the worst day for the Dow this year so far. This comes from the release of soft US data, including a decline in consumer sentiment, home sales dropping more than expected and a five-year inflation outlook survey higher-than-expected. The economic data sparked concerns among US investors over a slowing economy and sticky inflation. Bank stocks were sold off and losses advanced toward the close on Friday, amid news headlines of additional tariffs and other government policies moving markets. The Dow Jones dropped 1.67%, bringing its two-day losses to 1,200 points. The S&P500 dropped 1.71%, the second negative session for the index after closing at a record on Wednesday. And the tech- heavy Nasdaq declined by over 2%. Australian shares declined on Friday, down 0.32% with consumer discretionary stocks weighing down on the market the most, while the materials sector advanced. What to watch today:As we enter the final week of reporting season, the Australian market is set to open lower, with the SPI futures suggesting a drop of 0.77% at the open this morning, following US equities. In commodities, Crude oil has dropped 2.87%, trading at US$70.40 per barrel, as concerns over Russian supply disruptions provided support while uncertainty loomed over a potential Ukraine peace deal. Gold is trading slightly lower at US$2,934 an ounce, remaining close to its record high from the previous session at US$2,950. Investors moved to the safe haven metal amid rising global uncertainties.And iron ore is trading higher at US$107.13 per tonne, its highest in four months amid strong demand expectations from major consumers. Over 20 listed companies are set to report their earnings results today, including Adairs (ASX:ADH), APA Group (ASX:APA), Lovisa (ASX:LOV), Lynas Rare Earths (ASX:LYC) and Regis Healthcare (ASX:REG), just to name a few. Stocks going ex-dividend today include Hansen Technologies Limited (ASX:HSN), Santos (ASX:STO) and Vicinity Centres (ASX:VCX).

Bell Potter's 12- month price target is amended from $21.60 to $36.00, and at TLX's current share price of $30.12, this implies just over 19% share price growth in a year. Trading Central have identified a bearish signal in PWR Holdings (ASX:PWH) indicating that the stock price may fall from the close of $7.34 to the range of $5.20 - $5.70 over 67 days, according to the standard principles of technical analysis.

The Acura Integra Type S might be the most talked about performance Acura now that the NSX is off the assembly line, but it's not the only hopped-up Acura sedan in the company's lineup. Acura's TLX entered the Acura stable in '14, with its second, and current, generation showing up in 2021. Adding to the second generation's performance chops was a Type S model. The TLX Type S packs a 3.0-liter turbocharged V6 under its hood that sends 355 hp and 354 lb-ft of torque through a 10-speed automatic transmission. From there, power hits the wheels by way of Acura's Super Handling All-Wheel-Drive system. On this episode of Quick Spin, host Wesley Wren hops behind the wheel of the 2024 Acura TLX Type S and puts it through its paces. Wren takes you on a guided tour of the TLX Type S and highlights some of his favorite features. Later, Wren takes you along for a live drive review of this sporty sedan.
