Reports of a maritime embargo from the Houthis is keeping the Strait of Hormuz in global headlines, says Kevin Hincks, though he expects earnings season to take investors' attention with Alphabet (GOOGL), Tesla (TSLA), and Intel (INTC) reporting this week. He talks about the importance he sees in the earnings.

In the Electrek Podcast, we discuss the most popular news in the world of sustainable transport and energy. In this week's episode, we discuss Tesla shareholders potentially starting to wake up, Xpeng targeting the European market, VW going cheaper with its EVs, and more.
Today's episode of Quick Charge means business – the business of buying up power stations to power up the pet AI that says it would have picked you over Michael Jordan in the 1984 NBA draft and the business of fleecing well-heeled car collectors out of an extra $100,000 on a (mostly) new Tesla Model S Signature sedan.

On today's totally normal episode of Quick Charge, it seems like EV sales are starting to normalize in the US after the loss of the Federal Tax Credit last September – but they're taking off everywhere else, and Europe is leading the charge!
In this episode of The Canadian Investor Podcast, we break down Rogers’ move to take full control of Maple Leaf Sports and Entertainment and what it says about the rising value of professional sports franchises. We look at how Rogers’ sports assets compare to the company’s overall market value, why scarce live-sports assets continue to attract premium valuations, and how NHL, NBA, MLB and NFL franchise values have grown over the last decade. We then shift to the S&P 500 and the growing debate around equal-weight versus market-cap-weighted ETFs. With the top holdings now making up a large share of the index, we discuss whether investors are still getting the diversification they expect, why AI-related concentration has become such a major factor, and how equal-weight ETFs can act as a defensive hedge while still keeping broad U.S. market exposure.

Dvorak on Twitter Follow Andrew Horowitz on Twitter Warm-Up - JOBS Number - Odd Move - Saylor is selling Bitcoin! - VEGGIE ALERT! - US RESUMES POWERFUL STRIKES ON IRAN (Is this still a ceasefire?) Markets - Starting off July on a Wobble - SpaceX added to NAZ100 - Oil prices drifting lower - Gas at the pump? - Oracle - Canary? World Cup? - USA is out... (Bad goalie move last night) IRAN - Looks like war is back on - at least for tonight - Oil rises about 3% on the news - US revokes Iran's ability to sell oil around the world - Markets don't seem overly concerned - VIX still low at 16 - Odds that this will be more than a quick in and out? --- Could it be that Iran was waiting until after the Funeral? JOBS COOL, FED STILL HOT - June payrolls came in at +57,000, well under the +110,000 estimate. - April and May were revised down by a combined 74,000 jobs. - Unemployment slipped to 4.2%, but not for the best reason: the labor force shrank by 720,000 people. - Labor-force participation fell to 61.5%, the lowest in more than five years. - Leisure and hospitality lost 61,000 jobs, a notable hit to the consumer-service economy. - Average hourly earnings rose $0.13 in June. - Fed setup: weaker hiring argues for patience, but inflation is still above target, so the market is back to parsing every Fed sentence. - - Fed Funds Futures Now only ONE Raise by Year-End DOW RECORD, NASDAQ WOBBLE - The Dow closed at a record 52,900.07 after the soft jobs report cooled near-term rate-hike fear. - S&P 500 finished roughly flat. - Nasdaq fell about 0.8% as chip stocks dragged the tape lower. - The Philadelphia Semiconductor Index dropped more than 5% on July 2. - Apple rose nearly 5% on iPhone launch optimism. - Nvidia and other AI/chip names stayed volatile after a huge first-half run. - Goldman client data showed hedge funds dumped tech hardware and semiconductor exposure for a fourth straight week. - The issue is not "AI is dead"; the issue is when all the AI capex turns into visible returns. TESLA BEATS DELIVERIES, STOCK STILL GETS HIT - Tesla delivered 480,126 vehicles in Q2, a record quarter and above Wall Street expectations. - Production was 451,758 vehicles. - Model 3/Y made up 467,762 deliveries. - Other models were only 12,364. - Energy storage deployments were 13.5 GWh. - Shares fell about 7.5% after the report, the worst one-day drop in roughly a year. - Pressure points: margin worries, price cuts, demand sustainability, and the market questioning whether the EV story is enough at a very rich valuation. - As of Monday afternoon, TSLA was around $420 with a market cap near $1.49 trillion and a trailing P/E around 385. MORE MUSK - TESLA PUTS AI ON A BUDGET - Tesla reportedly capped employee spending on third-party AI tools at $200 per week starting July 6. - Grok was reportedly exempt from the cap. - Setup: Tesla wants employees using AI, but not running up unlimited outside-token bills. - Cost-control angle: AI is becoming a normal operating expense, not a science project. - Funny part: even at Tesla, the AI bill apparently needs a limiter. NVIDIA SERVER DELAY NOISE - Nvidia shares held up despite reports of delays tied to its next AI server architecture. - SemiAnalysis reportedly said Nvidia's Kyber architecture could slip by up to 12 months into 2028. - Nvidia pushed back and said its development roadmap is unchanged. - Mizuho called the delay report "noise" and said it was not a material issue for the stock. - NOTE: Story is still report-driven, not company-confirmed. ORACLE - CANARY? - Oracle's stock fell 19% this week, the steepest drop since August 2001, the depths of the dot-com bust. - The company's capital expenditures surged 162% in the latest fiscal year, with almost $24 billion in negative free cash flow and $130 billion in debt. - Co-founder Larry Ellison has fallen behind the Google co-founders, Amazon's Jeff Bezos and Michael Dell on the list of the world's richest people. - After the company reached a peak market cap of $900 billion in September, on enthusiasm about Oracle's AI customers, the stock has lost about 55% of its value. - The crux of the problem is that for Oracle to fulfill its AI infrastructure commitment, primarily to OpenAI, it's having to raise record amounts of debt, creating balance sheet risk while focusing on lower-margin offerings. SPACEX ENTERS THE INDEX MACHINE - SpaceX is set to join the Nasdaq-100 on Tuesday after its recent IPO. - The company's valuation is around $2.1 trillion. - Its Nasdaq-100 weight will initially be under 1% because of limited public float. - Index-tracking funds tied to the Nasdaq-100 will need exposure, creating automatic demand. - Key issue: big valuation, small float, forced index buying. - Watch the lockup calendar: index inclusion can create near-term demand, but employee and insider selling later can change the supply picture. - Podcast angle: retail gets "SpaceX exposure" through QQQ, but not necessarily much exposure at first. STRATEGY SELLS BITCOIN TO PAY THE BILLS - Strategy sold 3,588 bitcoin last week for about $216 million. - Proceeds are being used for preferred-stock dividends and dollar reserves. - The company still holds 843,775 bitcoin, valued around $52 billion. - Q2 included an $8.32 billion paper loss tied to bitcoin weakness. - The company's average bitcoin purchase price is around $75,476. - Recent sale prices were around $59,000 to $61,000. - Funny part: the former "never sell" bitcoin treasury poster child is now selling bitcoin to service the capital structure. - Watch for copycats: any company that copied the bitcoin-treasury model may face the same liquidity math if crypto stays weak. MICROSOFT CUTS AGAIN - Microsoft said it will cut about 4,800 jobs. - Shares slipped nearly 1%. - Job cuts landed while investors are still rewarding AI spending. - The message? spend heavy on AI, cut elsewhere. --- Yes, AI is killing jobs... SERVICES HOLD AT 54 - ISM non-manufacturing PMI came in at 54.0. - Result matched expectations. - Reading above 50 means services activity is still expanding. - Market took it as firm enough for growth, not hot enough to force an immediate Fed move. EARNINGS SEASON STARTER - Delta and PepsiCo report this week. - Levi Strauss also reports this week. - Delta is the read on travel, premium demand, fuel, and consumer resilience. - PepsiCo is the read on snack pricing, volume, and lower-income consumer pressure. - Q2 earnings bar is high after the market's strong second-quarter rally. OIL BACK TO PRE-IRAN WAR LEVELS - Brent settled around $71.99. - WTI settled around $68.55. - OPEC+ approved another output-target increase for August, adding 188,000 barrels per day. - Since April, planned increases add up to nearly 800,000 barrels per day. - Crude exports through the Strait of Hormuz are recovering, taking some geopolitical premium out of the market. - Saudi Arabia cut official selling prices, another sign the market is shifting from shortage panic to buyer resistance. - Good for headline inflation if it sticks; bad for energy bulls who were pricing war-premium oil. SPR DRAWDOWN - U.S. Strategic Petroleum Reserve fell by 6.2 million barrels. - SPR level is now 319.5 million barrels. - That is the lowest level since April 1983. - Drawdown comes while oil prices are easing and OPEC+ is adding supply. - Energy setup: lower crude helps inflation, but reserve levels are historically thin. MORE OIL - CHINA BUYS THE DIP - China stepped up Middle East oil purchases as prices fell. - Saudi Arabia cut export prices to Asia to a six-year low. - Brent settled at $71.99. - WTI settled at $68.55. - OPEC+ approved another August production increase of 188,000 barrels per day. - Planned OPEC+ supply increases since April now total nearly 800,000 barrels per day. - Lower oil supports disinflation but raises questions about global demand.

CHINA NOT MESSING AROUND - A Chinese court handed a rare death sentence to a former official on corruption charges, in a severe punishment underscoring the intensity of President Xi Jinping's anti-graft crackdown. - Yang Youlin, a former vice director of an economic zone in the eastern city of Nanjing, was sentenced to death on Monday for taking more than 2.21 billion yuan ($325 million) of bribes between 2013 and 2023, according to the state broadcaster China Central Television. - Yang was found guilty also of embezzlement, abuse of power and money laundering. His crimes were “exceptionally grave” and caused massive losses, warranting the capital sentence, CCTV reported, citing the Changzhou Intermediate People's Court in Jiangsu province. DRONES - Dronemaker AeroVironment reported fourth-quarter earnings that beat on the top and bottom lines. - The company's funded backlog of $1.2 billion was up substantially over last year, but grew only slightly from the $1.1 billion last quarter. - Autonomous systems were a strong point with revenue of $492 million that beat the $402 million StreetAccount expectation.

On today's surveillance-heavy episode of Quick Charge, it sure looks like Tesla's in-cabin driver cam failed to stop one woman from falling asleep at the wheel, but safety and attention monitoring may not be the end game for that camera after all.

Tesla (TSLA) is evolving beyond electric vehicles, with artificial intelligence, autonomous driving, and energy storage becoming central to its long-term growth strategy. George Tsilis breaks down Tesla's Robotaxi rollout in Austin, advances in Full Self-Driving and A.I. hardware, and why investors are increasingly viewing the company as an A.I. infrastructure and robotics play rather than just an automaker.George also examines the key risks facing Tesla, including its lofty valuation, regulatory hurdles surrounding autonomous driving, slowing vehicle sales growth, and the stock's recent technical weakness.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Subscribe to the Market Minute newsletter - https://schwabnetwork.com/subscribeDownload the iOS app - https://apps.apple.com/us/app/schwab-network/id1460719185Download the Amazon Fire Tv App - https://www.amazon.com/TD-Ameritrade-Network/dp/B07KRD76C7Watch on Sling - https://watch.sling.com/1/asset/191928615bd8d47686f94682aefaa007/watchWatch on Vizio - https://www.vizio.com/en/watchfreeplus-exploreWatch on DistroTV - https://www.distro.tv/live/schwab-network/Follow us on X – https://twitter.com/schwabnetworkFollow us on Facebook – https://www.facebook.com/schwabnetworkFollow us on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/company/schwab-network/About Schwab Network - https://schwabnetwork.com/about

He sees deliveries improving as the Mag 7 company hits the gas on robotaxi production.

Host Mark Longo breaks down a wild, high-volume day across the options tape where tech took a beating, chip stocks went wild, and a massive names suffered jaw-dropping premium swings. First, we kick the tires on today's Lucky Seven Scan at TheHotOptionsReport.com , highlighting unusual volume spikes in Arcosa Inc. (ACA), Absci Corp (ABSI), and Acumen Pharmaceuticals (ABOS). Then, we dive into the top 10 most active options chains of the day: SMCI (#10): Rallies over 15% to $35.46. Did buyers of the weekly $40 calls get a banger day? Intel (#9): Up nearly $7 to $140.94. Paper leans heavy into selling the weekly $160 covered calls. Big Tech Sell-Offs (#8 - #4): Breaking down the overriding and sweat equity in Netflix (NFLX), Microsoft (MSFT)—which broke the $370 strike in both directions—Alphabet (GOOGL), Apple (AAPL), and Amazon (AMZN). SpaceX (#3): A brutal 16.5% downward slide ($30.40 drop) to close at $154.60. Is a 126 Vol implied volatility too cheap for the June weekly $180 calls? Nvidia (#2): A relatively light 2.92 million contracts as NVDA slides to $208.65, making the zero-day-to-expiration (0DTE) $215 calls look like a slam-dunk sell. Tesla (#1): TSLA takes the crown, rallying to $405.05. We look at the absolute wild price action on the 0DTE $410 calls that hit an intraday high of $415.

A SpaceX-Tesla merger may happen as soon as this year, according to comments from SpaceX President and COO Gwynne Shotwell during the company's June 12 IPO day. Speaking to CNBC as SpaceX began trading on the Nasdaq at a $1.75 trillion valuation, Shotwell said a merger between Elon Musk's two trillion-dollar companies "might make Elon's life a little easier" and pointed to a "convergence" in what SpaceX and Tesla are building toward.This episode breaks down what Gwynne Shotwell actually said about the SpaceX Tesla merger, why analysts think it's now closer than ever, and what it means for Tesla shareholders. Shotwell told CNBC there are "synergies between Tesla and SpaceX in our futures, definitely," while keeping her near-term focus on rockets, Starlink, and the ISS. The quote landed on the same day SpaceX's market cap opened above $2 trillion, putting it ahead of Tesla as the sixth most valuable US company, and the same day Elon Musk became the world's first trillionaire.The financial and operational ties between SpaceX and Tesla are already deep. Tesla invested $2 billion in xAI in January 2026, a stake that converted to nearly 19 million SpaceX shares when xAI merged into SpaceX in February. SpaceX has bought $697 million worth of Tesla Megapack energy storage and $131 million in Cybertrucks. The two companies jointly run Terafab, a $55 billion chip manufacturing project with Intel that will produce silicon for robotics and space. Total Tesla sales to SpaceX and xAI since 2023 are roughly $890 million.The most telling signal is in SpaceX's S-1 filing. Days before the IPO, SpaceX amended its risk factors to add: "We may issue a significant amount of equity in connection with future transactions." That language isn't necessary for small deals. It's the kind of disclosure that anticipates a merger the size of Tesla, which currently has a market cap of about $1.52 trillion.Wall Street is already pricing in the SpaceX Tesla merger thesis. Wedbush analyst Dan Ives puts the probability at 80-90% with a likely close in the first half of 2027 and calls a combined entity the "holy grail" for Musk's control of the AI ecosystem. Wolfe Research analyst Emmanuel Rosner says the IPO has turned the merger into a "core thesis" for many Tesla investors, citing stronger AI capabilities through xAI, expanded access to capital markets, and increased Musk voting control over the combined company. Musk already holds 85% voting power at SpaceX and roughly 13% of Tesla, which could climb to 25% if his November pay package targets hit.We cover what Gwynne Shotwell's IPO day comments actually mean, why the S-1 language is the strongest signal yet, what a combined SpaceX-Tesla company looks like under Elon Musk's voting control, how the Cursor acquisition and xAI absorption fit the same M&A pattern, and whether Tesla shareholders come out ahead in a stock-for-stock deal at current valuations.Keywords: SpaceX Tesla merger, Gwynne Shotwell, Elon Musk, SpaceX IPO, SPCX stock, Tesla stock, TSLA, xAI, $1.75 trillion valuation, Wedbush Dan Ives, Wolfe Research, Terafab, Musk trillionaire, AI M&A 2026, Tesla SpaceX synergies.

On today's time-traveling episode of Quick Charge, Tesla might be trying to erase evidence of FSD fraud, Caterpillar keeps trying to electrify the construction space, and time is rapidly running out on what's left of the 30% home solar tax credit.
In this episode, we cover several major stories across AI, tech, Berkshire Hathaway, housing, and Canadian banks. We start with Anthropic reportedly moving closer to a potential IPO and what that could mean for the broader AI IPO race. We also break down the latest SpaceX IPO update, including its massive expected valuation and why investors appear to be valuing the company as much more than just a rocket launch business. We then look at Alphabet’s major equity raise and what it says about the rising cost of the AI infrastructure race. From there, we discuss Berkshire Hathaway’s planned acquisition of homebuilder Taylor Morrison and why the deal is notable under Greg Abel’s leadership. Finally, we wrap up with Canadian bank earnings, where results were better than feared, dividends were raised, capital markets helped, and credit remains the key risk to watch over the next few quarters.

The Automotive Troublemaker w/ Paul J Daly and Kyle Mountsier
Shoot us a Text.Episode #1348: Today we cover Tesla raising Model Y prices for the first time in years, lenders diving deeper into subprime auto financing, and why automotive advertising is quietly losing market share.Show Notes with links:Tesla just bumped prices on several higher-trim Model Y variants for the first time in two years, signaling confidence that EV demand may be heating back up. Meanwhile, Wall Street is still trying to decide if the stock is charging ahead or stuck in traffic.Tesla raised prices by $1,000 on the Model Y Premium RWD and AWD trims, while the Performance trim climbed by $500.Entry-level Model Y versions remain unchanged, suggesting Tesla is protecting affordability while testing premium demand elasticity.Analysts point to rising gas prices and battery material costs as possible drivers behind the move.Despite the pricing confidence, TSLA stock slid over 4% Friday and dipped again Monday as investors weigh slowing momentum and new technical buy points.Auto lenders are diving deeper into subprime financing as affordability pressures push buyers back into the market and lenders get more aggressive chasing deals. The result? More approvals, higher payments, and longer loan terms.Subprime and deep subprime borrowers made up 15.4% of all auto loans and leases in Q4, the highest share since 2021.Average interest rates are eye-popping: 13.2% for subprime new-car loans and nearly 22% for deep subprime used-car loans.Dealers say lenders are “digging a little deeper” rather than dramatically lowering standards, helped by better data and digital document verification.Experian's Melinda Zabritski summed it up saying, “As affordability remains top of mind, both lenders and consumers are adapting.”For decades, automotive advertising practically was the ad industry. But now, shrinking OEM budgets, EV uncertainty, and Tesla-style marketing strategies are changing the game and auto's share of ad spend is slipping below a historic benchmark.Automotive advertising is projected to fall below 10% of total ad category spend for the first time ever tracked by Guideline.The category shrank roughly 7% in 2025, with spending pressure continuing into 2026.Analysts point to weaker EV momentum and automakers scaling back electric initiatives as major contributors.Newer brands are ditching traditional “big splash” campaigns in favor of leaner marketing approaches, following Tesla's no-advertising playbook.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/
