Flat futures do not require shades. Too bad. Crude down over 1%. Gold down slightly. King Midas may hold a press conference on this. Bitcoin down and draws closer to the $8,000 Remain Calm! level for no reason at all. Tough to be a futures indicator when your behavior is unable to be tracked. Daily Boeing news is brought to you by Boeing, of course. Reminds me of the coverage of Greece some years ago. Coronavirus is back in the news. Mr. Market can't seem to get a handle on this. Let's hope that the flu is not factored in to Mr. Market's decision making. Tesla in the news today. Surprise! UBS keeps a "Sell" rating on $TSLA. Here we go! Let the comments begin on this daring call. In other Tesla news, yes there is more, Tesla has been sued again by owners who says their vehicles suddenly accelerated by themselves, leading to crashes. Seven owners are seeking class-action status and cited Tesla's Model S, Model 3 and Model X in the complaint filed Monday. I guess these seven missed Tesla saying "There is no 'unintended acceleration' in Tesla vehicles," adding "This petition is completely false and was brought by a Tesla short-seller." Are these seven driving Tesla cars while short the stock? This is getting interesting. Elon Musk is excommunicado. Ford expects to record a pre-tax re-measurement loss of about $2.2B related to its pension and other post-retirement employee benefits plans, according to an SEC filing. The re-measurement loss will reduce Q4 net income by around $1.7B, though the loss will not impact the adjusted earnings per share as it is a special item. Those darn pension and other post-retirement employee benefit plans! A judge in Canada has approved a C$196.5M ($149.7M) fine against Volkswagen after the company pleaded guilty to dozens of counts of diesel emissions violations. This is the largest environmental penalty in Canadian history and is a footnote today. Have to get that Boeing and Tesla "news" front and center, so it appears. PG&E still must win backing for its exit plan from California's Gov. Newsom, who today reiterated his objection and said the company had not done enough to address concerns he raised last month. Newsom, who has threatened a state takeover of the utility, said the option remains on the table. Wait a second. I thought that PG&E was going to bought out by Berkshire Hathaway. 😂😂 After investing in alternative meat maker Beyond Meat, Tyson exited its 6.5% investment in late April 2019 ahead of Beyond Meat’s initial public offering. “We have all the resources available to us from a culinary standpoint, R&D standpoint, manufacturing, distribution,” Tyson Foods CEO Noel White said. If Beyond Meat jumped over 10% on Starbucks news that never mentioned Beyond Meat, will it fall as much based on Tyson saying that it can compete in the meatless market? Maybe Starbucks will team with Tyson and not Beyond Meat? Shares of Tyson could jump over 10% based on this nothing-to-it rumor. Take that Mr. Market and your hyper-sensitivity.notes via user dcv.
