Exactly. I'm surprised they didn't say that Germany stole their jobs.

[@mickygarcia4251]

You're entirely incorrect. Property values are ridiculously high in the the United States. That's great for banks, but it also becomes part of your cost of doing business. In other words, the property, plant and equipment costs become part of your pricing structure in addition to having to pay the higher wages of American workers. This is a structural cost disadvantage. We engage in labor arbitrage from overseas in order to make our cars more affordable, but we're fighting an uphill battle. Instead we build factories overseas to save money.

[@drscopeify]

Americans are the most expensive workers in the world - almost on the same level as small countries of only rich people like Monaco and Lichtenstein so what do you do? You import. The good thing about importing is that it sucks inflation out of the country, every time you pay for something made in another country, that money goes out of the USA so money is always getting sucked out and inflation naturally will slowly fall as money is removed from the system. Pretty amazing that the USA can have #1 growth in the world and falling inflation due to large imports. But Trump might destroy that, we'll see, he might just be bluffing.

[@ryan_dylan6650]

All these issues stem from an economy grappling with uncertainties, including housing problems, foreclosures, global fluctuations, and the aftermath of the pandemic, leading to instability. Rising inflation, sluggish growth, and trade disruptions demand urgent attention from all sectors to restore stability and stimulate growth.

In retirement, safeguarding your wealth against inflation is essential. Consider options like TIPS (Treasury Inflation-Protected Securities), commodities, or foreign currencies to hedge against a weakening dollar.

The Obama bailout of GM, while profitable for the taxpayer, was ultimately dumb since he kept all the executives in place, including the horrific Mary Barra.

[@LearnAboutFlow]

@@ST-rj8iu The past four years have shown people will pay anything for vehicles. The AVERAGE price of the bestselling F-150 is nearly $50K, which again shows consumers will pay anything. And why are consumers flocking to MORE expensive SUVs in lieu of relatively cheaper, if not cheaper to maintain, regular cars. I always laugh when someone tells me, "why can't they build a basic car at an affordable price?" Um, well, it's because consumers do NOT want that. Try building a manual transmission sedan with roll down windows and no air conditioning. Even if you sold it for $8000 no one would buy it.

[@drscopeify]

The problem is that customers demand a MILLION things they want to drive fast, high MPG, power, and that just kills reliability. The more HP you pull out an engine, the smaller it is for the car size you are going to wear it out, just basic engineering. An SUV with a big V8 that produces weak power like an old 1980s Mercedes SL V8 that thing is slow as a Honda Civic but it will hit 1 million miles like it's nothing. Just got no freaking power but people today they want power, they want 500000mpg and 1000 HP so you get unreliable engineers pushed to the limit.

Then I bought a brand new 1994 Nissan Hardbody pickup, 2 wheel drive, extra cab 4 cylinder with a 5 speed manual. I paid $12,245 out the door price. That was a great truck.

The auto manufacturers were greedy and failed to innovate. They also failed to cut production costs. So they were too expensive for their customers. Covid and inflation wiped out their customers and they failed to adapt. Demand is there but not at the prices the big manufacturers want to sell at. It’s not just a US problem. Japanese automakers are in as much trouble. Nissan has less than 12 months cash. Tariffs on Chinese cars will not save the big three. Or European or Japanese automakers. Only luxury niche vehicles have a chance of survival. Even in China western brands are seen as outdated and uninspiring. So it’s not the economy as China is booming and they are still not selling in China. Legacy brands will be gone within a decade. It will be expensive luxury brands and Chinese brands. Other Asian brands could suffer but will survive.

Well they can't sell it here I mean they're right you can't go on just selling to the same market especially when those markets are heavily dependent on finance see that's actually the huge problem we have in North America... The automaker is well as the dealership looks at the financial situation is something that they can gain which they have done because if most car buyers are reliant on finance due to the price being high Well then they can pad the bill even more because if the financier decides to grant this person alone they cut a big check instantly to the dealership so if there's wiggle room of $10,000 why would you charge somebody $30,000 for a car when you can screw the system the customer basically and charge another $10,000 knowing that the financier will finance it and thus the sale price is now 40 grand?? basically everybody in this existing market is broke so no you can't go on selling more and more garbage every year... but this is exactly why most of our automakers have already decided they don't need us and have the majority of their sales outside the United States looking forward motor company for example I mean back in what was it 14 they discontinued the Ford focus which was the number one selling sedan simply because most of their competitors didn't even offer a sedan at the time in fact no one does today but they decided to pull it out of here yet you could go everywhere else in the world and buy one oh and by the way they're willing to sell it to those folks and other countries for like 50% cheaper than they are here in North America That's why the discontinued it it was supposed to be the budget friendly car but the way in which they want to game the system it all the sudden wasn't a budget friendly car meaning no one was buying them because if you're going to spend that kind of money why wouldn't you just go get something else?

Now if Automobile corporations have Billions to take out of the banks and make worst product than we got on the market at the time, then why are they complaining? it looks like they have money to burn....and they still burning it.

Auto unions and high paid officials can't go against the lower cost of Chinese auto makers.

[@TheUtuber999]

Unions have nothing to do with it.

[@johnbethea4505]

@TheUtuber999 every union that I have seen has demanded high pay and benefits that sometimes cause the products cost too much. Look at the postal union as another example.

[@TheUtuber999]

@@johnbethea4505 Your perception is what is flawed. You see, union pay and benefits is the baseline. Nonunionized workers are actually underpaid. FTFY.

[@TheUtuber999]

@@johnbethea4505 Union pay is the baseline. Others are simply underpaid.

Your explanations are clear and concise. Despite watching several trading videos, I haven't found practical advice that resonates with me. Can you kindly suggest a reputable trading coach who can effectively guide me through the process? ‎ ‎

We don't want electric cars or all the computer tracking crap in them or any computers. Just want a car not the extremely expensive crap in them. Build a old steel car without computer electric windows, chips, sensors that break within 3 years. Go back to old school. Cars don't need to go over 100 mph. No where is it even allowed to go that fast. Waste

I don’t see how they can say Chinese companies are to blame, I haven’t seen a single Chinese car here in the states. And I doubt we ever will since they are junk.

I am at the beginning of my "investment journey", planning to put 385K into dividend stocks so that I will be making up to 30% annually in dividend returns. any good recommendation on great performing stocks or Crypto will be appreciated.

As a newbie investor, it’s essential for you to have a mentor to keep you accountable. Ruth Ann Tsaoknas is my trade analyst, she has guided me to identify key market trends, pinpointed strategic entry points, and provided risk assessments, ensuring my trades decisions align with market dynamics for optimal returns.

[@HaholBarton]

I managed to grow a nest egg of around 120k to over a Million. I'm especially grateful to Adviser Ruth Ann Tsakonas, for her expertise and exposure to different areas of the market..

[@ShinodaPbp]

I don't really blame people who panic. Lack of information can be a big hurdle. I've been making more than $200k passively by just investing through an advisor, and I don't have to do much work.. Inflation or no inflation, my finances remain secure. So I really don't blame people who panic.

[@HaholBarton]

Without a doubt! Ruth Ann Tsakonas is a trader who goes above and beyond. she has an exceptional skill for analysing market movements and spotting profitable opportunities. Her strategies are meticulously crafted on thorough research and years of practical experience..

[@HieouyaAgnèsDoyo]

how would you recommend i enter the crypto market? I am also looking at studying some traders and copying their strategy rather than investing myself and losing money emotionally. What's your take on this approach? and How can i reach her, if you don't mind me asking?
