China Trade Breakthrough, Nike Surges, Pixar Slumps, and Uber’s Bold Self-Driving Bet
Here’s what we cover in today’s episode:
-
U.S.–China Trade Framework Confirmed A new agreement could ease tariffs and restore U.S. access to rare-earth minerals — key to EVs and semiconductors. The catch? Both sides still need to follow through.
-
Nike’s Earnings Reignite Momentum Despite tariff pressure, Nike’s strategic plan — shifting supply chains and raising prices — boosted investor confidence, sending shares up 11%.
-
Pixar’s Elio Tanks at the Box Office Another original Pixar film underperforms. Are sequels the only way forward for the animation giant?
4.Uber’s Self-Driving Power Play Uber may acquire Pony.ai — and bring back Travis Kalanick to run it. It’s a risky but aggressive move to stay competitive in the autonomous vehicle race.
