  5. Germany’s automakers are struggling under the weight of American tariffs, Chinese competition and a rocky transition to electric vehicles.

    I managed to pay £3.85 for a single can of coke in a Toby Carvery in Middlesbrough 😳 (this is probably because they want the punter to pay an extra 50p or so for their unlimited soft-drink refills; for example a normal pot of tea is still £1.85... Still, menu first *then* order drinks 🤦 )

    Would love to see a spreadsheet of lifetime income/outgoings of one of those fancy coffee (starbucks/costa) vending machines. I reckon if there's a way to deliver a takeaway coffee cheaper, in a period of economic contraction, it's some kind of automat.

  18. Sales of electric vehicles have plummeted since the end of September, when federal tax credits worth up to $7,500 ended. The Trump administration has cut subsidies and loans for clean energy projects, while seeking to eliminate regulations that encouraged automakers to sell low-emission vehicles.

  22. There is a big hole in the seductively simple argument that Mr. Trump’s policy will push employers to hire Americans: For many jobs, the cheaper and more likely replacement is a robot. And the jobs that can't be done by robots? Many will simply leave the country.

  26. “Our projection is that we will be finishing in the 5,500 total units sold range for 2025, making it the worst year on record since Altus — and the predecessors to Altus — started keeping records back in 1981,” Sherwood said.
