Great Power Games Could Leave Europeans Out in the Cold

DB-Nov 11,2021: Elon Musk sells over 4.5 million Tesla shares this week after posting a poll on Twitter about whether he should unload a tenth of his stake in the company and spurring controversy about taxation of the ultra-wealthy. Meanwhile, Rivian’s IPO, one of the US’s largest since Facebook, lifts off with an almost $88 billion valuation at market close on Wednesday. The IPO’s positive reception by investors spilled over into other EV stocks such as Nio and Fisker. Autonomous vehicle startup Aurora also had made its trading debut last week, the first AV company to go public, after the closure of its merger with a SPAC. With Tesla’s rivals cranking up the heat, Tommy Thornton, founder of Hedge Fund Telemetry, discusses his forward outlook for this burgeoning and increasingly competitive industry and for Tesla. Thornton also touches on gold, retail, and Chinese tech. Interviewed by Maggie Lake. Want to submit questions?

DB-Nov 10,2021: There’s no question about it: inflation is not transitory. The latest Consumer Price Index revealed prices of everything except food and energy went up 4.6%, the quickest spike since August 1991. The CPI also showed a 6.2% surge from October last year. U.S. consumers are feeling the hike in energy prices—oil is at nearly $82 a barrel, and electricity bills are at the highest they’ve been since 2009. Meanwhile, more automobile companies are joining the race to give Elon Musk a run for his money. The latest to enter the fray of Tesla rivals is the electric-vehicle startup Rivian, which debuted in trading today with the highest Initial Price Offer since 2014, starting at $78. The company’s valuation has already beaten Ford and General Motors. Jared Dillian, the editor of The Daily Dirtnap, joins Ash Bennington to discuss all of this and more. Want to submit questions?

DB-Nov 08,2021:The House passed a $1 trillion bipartisan infrastructure bill on Friday to revamp the country’s transportation, utilities, and broadband structures. Meanwhile, despite Friday’s positive news of the October jobs report, U.S. treasury bonds still fell. This happened after the Fed’s announcement earlier last week to begin tapering bond purchases by $15 billion a month. On Twitter, Elon Musk shared a poll asking people to vote on whether he should sell 10% of his Tesla stock. Nearly 60% of those who participated in the poll voted yes, prompting Elon Musk to offload some stock to help pay his giant tax bill. Real Vision’s Petr Pinkhasov and Weston Nakamura host economist & trader Samuel Rines for a triple treat on today’s Daily Briefing to discuss the infrastructure bill, U.S. treasury bonds, and Tesla stock.

So far, President Joe Biden has backed a plan to reduce methane emissions, one of the most harmful greenhouse gasses; Japan has pledged up to $10 billion to decarbonize Asia; and Jeff Bezos has pledged $2 billion to restore nature and transform food systems. As the clean energy transition is swiftly underway while the current European energy crisis worsens, Greer shares his perspective on the implications these events will have on energy prices.
