<h3>Why Short Interest Matters</h3>
Short interest is the number of shares that have been sold short but have not yet been covered or closed out. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-short-a-stock/">Short selling</a> is when a trader sells shares of a company they do not own, with the hope that the price will fall. Traders make money from short selling if the price of the stock falls and they lose if it rises.
Short interest is important to track because it can act as an indicator of market sentiment towards a particular stock. An increase in short interest can signal that investors have become more bearish, while a decrease in short interest can signal they have become more bullish.

<h3>Comparing Vaxcyte's Short Interest Against Its Peers</h3>
Peer comparison is a popular technique amongst analysts and investors for gauging how well a company is performing. A company's peer is another company that has similar characteristics to it, such as industry, size, age, and financial structure. You can find a company's peer group by reading its 10-K, proxy filing, or by doing your own similarity analysis.
According to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/">Benzinga Pro</a>, Vaxcyte's peer group average for short interest as a percentage of float is 5.28%, which means the company has more short interest than most of its peers.

The two proposed amendments to the Florida Constitution dealing with recreational marijuana legalization and abortion rights are close to passage, a Florida Atlantic University poll released Tuesday found, though both are <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/florida">right on the edge</a>.
FAU's poll found 60% of voters favor the marijuana initiative, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cannabis/24/04/38034138/florida-supreme-court-approves-cannabis-legalization-proposal-for-november-election-in-blow-to-d" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Amendment 3</a> and <a href="https://www.cbsnews.com/miami/news/florida-amendment-4-abortion-2024-election-ballot-what-to-know/">Amendment 4</a>, which would enshrine abortion rights in the state Constitution, has the support of 58% of Florida voters, <a href="https://www.sun-sentinel.com/2024/10/29/fau-poll-finds-florida-abortion-marijuana-amendments-on-verge-of-enough-for-passage/?itm_source=parsely-api">reported</a> the Sun Sentinel.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">DeSantis On The Warpath Against Both</h2>
Gov. Ron DeSantis is leading the opposition to both amendments in a series of last ditch and increasingly bitter campaign ads and speeches to rally the opposition, including spending state money on advertising opposing the amendments.

Recent anti-cannabis ads went so far as <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cannabis/24/10/41411270/desantis-doubles-down-with-new-taxpayer-funded-anti-marijuana-ads-one-links-cannabis-to-domestic">to connect legal marijuana with domestic violence</a>.
"We have never seen a governor direct state agencies to aggressively oppose a ballot measure that has qualified for the ballot," <a href="https://theintercept.com/2024/10/29/florida-ron-desantis-election-amendments-abortion-marijuana/">said</a> Daniel Smith, a University of Florida political scientist who studies ballot initiatives.
Jason Garcia, investigative reporter at the Orlando Sentinel, says the state has racked up an estimated $19.3 million in bills, based on recent contracts and purchase orders as it dips into the budgets of state agencies to spread the anti-weed and anti-abortion message.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Election Police Threaten Advocates And Petition Gatherers</h2>
DeSantis led anti-abortion tactics, several outlets reported, have become disturbing for advocates.
Individuals who signed petitions have come forward saying they were questioned by law enforcement about the initiative. In the fall, the Florida Office of Election Crimes and Security opened over 40 investigations into petition gatherers who have been visited by plainclothes officers, <a href="https://www.miamiherald.com/news/politics-government/article292061625.html">according</a> to the Miami Herald. One was Isaac Menasche.

Good Morning Traders! In today&#39;s Market Clubhouse Morning Memo, we will discuss SPY, QQQ, AAPL, MSFT, NVDA, GOOGL, META, and TSLA.
Our proprietary formula, exclusive to Market Clubhouse, dictates these price levels. This dynamic equation takes into account price, volume, and options flow. These levels are updated every day and shared with all Clubhouse Members, prior to the opening of the market.
We recommend closely monitoring these stocks, and be prepared to leverage potential breakouts or reversals. As always, stay alert and ready to adjust your tactics based on the market&#39;s pulse to optimize your trading gains. Now, let&#39;s dive into the stock analysis:
<h3>SPDR S&amp;P 500 ETF Trust</h3>
SPY (ARCA: SPY) &nbsp;is currently trading around the key level of 581.97. For bulls to take control, we need to see a push above 583.18, with this level acting as strong support during regular trading hours. If buyers step in and maintain momentum, we&rsquo;re looking for a move higher to 585.37, followed by a potential test of 587.31. A strong buying session could push the price action up to the bull target for the day at 589.71.
However, if 581.97 fails as support, the bears are likely to challenge 580.67. A sustained break below this level could open the door for a move down to 579.12, with the next major level of support at 577.87. If selling pressure intensifies, we could see SPY fall to the low bear target of 576.62 by the end of the session.
<h3>Invesco QQQ Trust Series 1</h3>
QQQ (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/qqq#NASDAQ">QQQ</a>)&nbsp;is auctioning around the key level of 501.07. For bulls to take charge, we&rsquo;re looking for a rally above this level, with buyers pushing towards 502.65. A successful hold here could propel the price towards 504.44, with continued strength potentially leading to a test of 506.68. If the momentum stays bullish throughout the session, the high target for the day is 509.87.
On the downside, if 501.07 fails as support, the bears could look to capitalize by pushing the price down to 499.44. Further selling pressure might bring the Qs to 498.37, with a break below this level targeting 496.94. If the auction remains weak, the final bearish target for the day is 495.35.
<h3>Apple Inc. </h3>
Apple&nbsp;(NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/aapl#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>) is currently auctioning near 233.28, a key support level for bulls. If buyers can hold this line, we should see a move toward 234.20, followed by a potential rally to 234.97. Continued bullish action could lead to a further test higher, with the high target on the day being 235.74.
If 233.28 doesn&#39;t hold as support, we expect the bears to bring the price down to 231.76. Continued selling pressure could target 230.25, with the potential for a further drop to 229.03. If sellers remain in control, Apple could reach its low bear target of 227.82.
<h3>Microsoft Corp.</h3>
Microsoft (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/msft#NASDAQ">MSFT</a>) is trading around the key level of 441.34. For bulls, a solid hold above this level could spark a rally to 442.95, with further upside momentum pushing the price to 444.95. If buyers dominate the session, we might see Microsoft test its high bull target at 446.33.
Should 441.34 fail to hold, the bears are likely to take charge, with an initial test at 438.72. A break below this level could push the price down to 437.10, with additional selling targeting 435.79. The low bear target for Microsoft today is 434.49 if the downward pressure continues.
<h3>NVIDIA Corporation</h3>
NVIDIA (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/nvda#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) is auctioning around 140.28, which is a critical support level for bulls to maintain. A successful push above this level could lead to a test of 141.21, with potential buying pressure driving the price up to 142.35. If bullish momentum persists, we may see a rally towards the high target for the day at 145.61.
On the flip side, if 140.28 doesn&rsquo;t hold, the bears could seize the opportunity to push the price lower to 139.42. A continued sell-off might test the 138.55 level, with further weakness leading to a low target for the day at 136.98.
<h3>Alphabet Inc Class A </h3>
Alphabet&nbsp;(NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/googl#NASDAQ">GOOGL</a>) is currently trading near the key level of 180.46. If bulls can maintain control above this level, we could see a move towards 181.77, with further upside potential leading to a test of 183.40. Continued strength in the session could drive the price up to the high bull target of 184.52.
In contrast, if 180.46 fails to hold as support, bears might drive the price lower to 179.15. If the selling persists, we could see a move down to 177.28, with the final bear target for the day being 176.23.
<h3>Meta Platforms Inc</h3>
Meta&nbsp;(NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/meta#NASDAQ">META</a>) is auctioning around the important level of 604.50. For bulls, maintaining this level as support is crucial for a potential rally to 609.30. If buying momentum holds, the price could push further to 615.65, with the high bull target at 622.01 being in reach if bullish sentiment prevails.
Should 604.50 fail, however, the bears will likely push the price lower, initially targeting 598.17. A break below this level could bring further downside to 591.29, and if selling pressure continues, the low bear target for the day sits at 585.73.
<h3>Tesla Inc.</h3>
Tesla&nbsp;(NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/tsla#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) is trading near 262.68. Bulls need to see this level hold for a potential rally towards 264.46. If the buying momentum continues, we may see the price push up to 266.83, with a further test of 269.48 likely if the market remains strong. The high bull target for Tesla today is 272.42 if buyers stay in control.
However, if 262.68 fails to hold, the bears may take over, driving the price down to 259.81. Continued selling pressure could bring 257.56 into play, and if this level breaks, Tesla may reach the low bear target of 256.34.
Final Word: Today&rsquo;s session is filled with significant economic reports that could influence market direction. At 8:15 AM ET, we have the ADP Non-Farm Employment Change, followed by the Q3 Advance Annualized GDP and PCE data at 8:30 AM ET. These data points will provide insight into the broader economic health and inflation trends. Pending Home Sales data for September will be released at 10:00 AM ET, offering a snapshot of the housing market&#39;s strength.
There are no scheduled Fed speakers today, allowing market participants to focus solely on economic data. The GDP and PCE figures could be pivotal in shaping expectations for future Fed policy decisions. Given the weight of today&rsquo;s reports, we can expect heightened volatility, especially as traders adjust their positions based on these releases. Be sure to manage risk carefully, and stay alert to any rapid changes in market sentiment. Good luck, and trade safely!

KeyBanc on AMD: Data center segment revenue, up 122% year over year, was part of what Vinh called AMD&#8217;s "solid results" in the third quarter.
The analyst said MI300&#8217;s outlook for 2024 to $5 billion was positive, but the company's fourth-quarter guidance came in below expectations.
"While we are disappointed in 4Q guidance, we're encouraged by the strong results in Data Center across MI300 and server CPU," Vinh said.
Vinh said the strong ramp of MI300 shipments could expand customer adoption in the cloud and AI sectors.
Cantor Fitzgerald on AMD: The company's quarterly results were "disappointing" for Muse.
The analyst said the key takeaway was MI300 doing well.
"We have continued to point to $12B as the magic MI300 target to support $6.00 in earnings power," Muse said.
The analyst believes the company will reach the figure, but the question is whether it will happen in 2025 or 2026.
"In the interim, we view shares largely range-bound in the $150-$170 territory until we gain line of sight to this earnings power."
Oppenheimer on AMD: The company's data center and AI segments were positives in the quarter for Schafer.
"Mgmt's built an impressive AI franchise in short order. From nothing 12 months ago, AI is expected to contribute &gt;$5B this year," Schafer said.
The analyst said investor expectations are out of reach and the bar could be too high.
"We expect Street numbers to come down Wednesday and remain sidelined until the path to sustained upside becomes clearer."
Piper Sandler on AMD: The quarterly results show GPU execution but come with disappointing guidance, Kumar said in a new investor note.
"The highlight of the call was that 2024 GPU revenues are expected to be above $5B, which had been the benchmark for investors," Kumar said.
The analyst said AMD's GPUs and client and server businesses could stand out in the future, while gaming and embedded will be headwinds.
"Overall, we continue to believe AMD is executing flawlessly on its GPU roadmap."
Roth MKM on AMD: The company's data center business could have an upside to continue momentum, Desilva said in a new investor note.
"We are encouraged that the company again raised its CY24 AI GPU revenue expectation with a healthy growth outlook into CY25," Desilva said.
The analyst said AI revenue continues to show strength for the company.
Truist on AMD: The stock price could need a modest "reset" after the disappointing fourth-quarter guidance, Stein said in a new investor note.
The analyst said caution should be exercised given AMD's position in AI compared to NVIDIA Corporation and the company's X86 market, which is under pressure from competition.
Morgan Stanley on AMD: A solid quarter from AMD might not be enough to offset a high bar for AI companies, Moore said in a new investor note.
"We still see 2024-25 as investment years for the AI opportunity, and think revenue/earnings expectations are still too high," Moore said.
The analyst said the risk reward for the stock remains balanced over the short term, with the company's AI product roadmap being key going forward.
"We have also highlighted that expectations are even higher, and unless the view is that AMD can take market share in CY25, which we do not forecast, there won't likely be much sequential growth through the year."
Goldman Sachs on AMD: The long-term AI growth opportunity remains for AMD, Hari said in a new investor note.
"We foresee share gains in traditional compute and the company's participation in AI compute driving revenue growth, margin expansion and earnings accretion over the medium to long-run in excess of the industry average," Hari said.
The analyst said they were encouraged by the company's progress in improving hardware and software offerings.
Hari said future data could show that AMD is taking "meaningful share" in the enterprise market.
Northland on AMD: The company could be narrowing the gap with Nvidia, Richard said in a new investor note.
"AMD is #2 in Data Center AI and that is not a bad place to be," Richard said.
The analyst said investors should consider buying the stock on Wednesday's pullback.
Richard said AMD can continue to grow market share in segments like data center over time.
Rosenblatt on AMD: The company showed market share gains in the quarter and should continue to gain share going forward, Mosesmann said in a new investor note.
"At a high level, Lisa Su indicated an increasingly better competitive dynamic compared to the Nvidia H-series and B-series in 2025, as indicated by significant expansion in customer engagement and milestone accomplishments," Mosesmann said.
AMD Price Action: AMD stock is down 9.8% to $149.96 at the time of publication Wednesday, versus a 52-week trading range of $94.07 to $227.30. AMD stock is up 8.5% year-to-date in 2024.

<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Strong ADP Data</h3>
Please <a href="https://thearorareport.com/chart-analysis-stock-market-tech-earnings-nvidia-software-amd-mc-10302024">click here </a>for an enlarged chart of Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMD#NASDAQ">AMD</a>).
Note the following:
<ul>
<li>This article is about the big picture, not an individual stock. The chart of AMD stock is being used to illustrate the point.</li>
<li>The chart shows the momo crowd buying AMD stock yesterday ahead of the earnings release.</li>
<li>The chart shows when earnings were released.</li>
<li>The chart shows the drop in AMD stock after earnings.</li>
<li>The chart shows the proprietary Arora Report VUD indicator changed to orange when earnings were released and continues to be orange today in the premarket.&nbsp; This indicates a net supply of AMD stock.</li>
<li>AMD reported earnings inline with the consensus and provided decent guidance.&nbsp; Why did the stock fall?&nbsp; The reason is that the whisper numbers for AI GPU guidance were approaching $6B.&nbsp; AMD guided above $5B for 2024 – this was inline with consensus.&nbsp; As we have been sharing with you, stocks move based on the difference between reported numbers and whisper numbers.</li>
<li>The reason that AMD was not able to meet the whisper numbers is that even though AMD chips for AI are excellent, AMD does not have the software and the whole system like NVIDIA Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>).&nbsp; This limits AMD's market even though AMD is offering cheaper price points compared to Nvidia.&nbsp; AMD has recently bought a systems company in an attempt to catch up to NVDA.&nbsp; However, in The Arora Report analysis, it will take a long time for AMD to catch up with NVDA.&nbsp; Nvidia's CUDA is a parallel computing platform and programming model.&nbsp; Thousands of developers have been using CUDA to harness the power of AI for years.</li>
<li>Alphabet Inc Class C (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOG#NASDAQ">GOOG</a>) reported earnings yesterday after the close.&nbsp; Alphabet earnings show data center growth.&nbsp; Data center growth means AI growth.&nbsp; However, in The Arora Report analysis, there is risk in GOOG stock because Google has over 90% of the search market.&nbsp; It is hard to see Google gaining share from here.&nbsp; Even a drop of a few percentage points will substantially hit earnings.</li>
<li>Microsoft Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSFT#NASDAQ">MSFT</a>) and Meta Platforms Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/META#NASDAQ">META</a>) earnings are ahead after the close.&nbsp; In The Arora Report analysis, stocks will move based not only on the earnings but how well the companies are able to monetize AI.</li>
<li>The Arora Report shared early on that AI was real and a fortune was to be made from AI.&nbsp; We have also been sharing with you that it is important to develop deep knowledge because at times it will be treacherous.&nbsp; We have illustrated the treacherousness of following the momo crowd in AI with the example of Super Micro Computer Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SMCI#NASDAQ">SMCI</a>).&nbsp; When everyone was bullish and SMCI was trading above $120, The Arora Report call was that SMCI was worth only $44 &#8211; $48 at best.&nbsp; SMCI is falling about 33% to about $32 as of this writing in the premarket on the news that its independent auditor resigned.</li>
<li>Just released GDP data shows that the economy is strong even though the numbers are less than the consensus.&nbsp; GDP is a lagging indicator.&nbsp; The Arora Report system focuses on leading indicators.&nbsp; Here are the details of the GDP data:
<ul>
<li>Q3 GDP-Adv came at 2.8% vs. 3.0% consensus.</li>
<li>Q3 Chain Deflator-Adv came at 1.8% vs. 2.3% consensus.</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>Automatic Data Processing Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ADP#NASDAQ">ADP</a>) data indicates a strong jobs picture.&nbsp; ADP is the largest payroll processor in the country and uses its data to give an advanced glimpse of the jobs picture ahead of the official jobs report that will be released on Friday at 8:30am ET.&nbsp; In The Arora Report analysis, if the official jobs report also shows a strong jobs picture, it will decrease the probability that the Fed will cut interest rates at the next meeting.&nbsp;&nbsp;
<ul>
<li>ADP employment change came at 223K vs. 105K consensus.</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>ADP data is one more data point that has gone against the reason the Fed gave to cut interest rates by 50 bps in September.&nbsp; As we have been writing, almost all of the data has gone against the Fed's reasoning for cutting rates by 50 bps.&nbsp;&nbsp;</li>
<li>In a major setback, Eli Lilly And Co (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LLY#NYSE">LLY</a>) missed the earnings consensus.&nbsp; LLY stock has fallen about 10% as of this writing in the premarket.&nbsp; In sympathy, the stock of Novo Nordisk A/S (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVO#NYSE">NVO</a>) is also falling.&nbsp; LLY and NVO stocks have been riding high on weight loss drugs.&nbsp; As full disclosure, LLY stock is in The Arora Report&#8217;s ZYX Buy Core Model Portfolio, long from $318.45.&nbsp; As of this writing, LLY stock is trading at $807.</li>
<li>Jobless claims, personal income and spending, and &nbsp;Fed&#8217;s favorite inflation gauge PCE will all be released tomorrow at 8:30am ET.</li>
</ul>
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Magnificent Seven Money Flows</h3>

Investors can gain an edge by knowing money flows in SPY and QQQ.&nbsp; Investors can get a bigger edge by knowing when smart money is buying stocks, gold, and oil.&nbsp; The most popular ETF for gold is SPDR Gold Trust (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GLD#NYSE">GLD</a>).&nbsp; The most popular ETF for silver is iShares Silver Trust (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SLV#NYSE">SLV</a>).&nbsp; The most popular ETF for oil is United States Oil ETF (ASCA:USO).
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Bitcoin</h3>
Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) is range bound.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Protection Band And What To Do Now</h3>
It is important for investors to look ahead and not in the rearview mirror.
Consider continuing to hold good, very long term, existing positions. Based on individual risk preference, consider a protection band consisting of cash or Treasury bills or short-term tactical trades as well as short to medium term hedges and short term hedges. This is a good way to protect yourself and participate in the upside at the same time.
You can determine your protection bands by adding cash to hedges.&nbsp; The high band of the protection is appropriate for those who are older or conservative. The low band of the protection is appropriate for those who are younger or aggressive.&nbsp; If you do not hedge, the total cash level should be more than stated above but significantly less than cash plus hedges.
A protection band of 0% would be very bullish and would indicate full investment with 0% in cash.&nbsp; A protection band of 100% would be very bearish and would indicate a need for aggressive protection with cash and hedges or aggressive short selling.
It is worth reminding that you cannot take advantage of new upcoming opportunities if you are not holding enough cash.&nbsp; When adjusting hedge levels, consider adjusting partial stop quantities for stock positions (non ETF); consider using wider stops on remaining quantities and also allowing more room for high beta stocks.&nbsp; High beta stocks are the ones that move more than the market.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Traditional 60/40 Portfolio</h3>
Probability based risk reward adjusted for inflation does not favor long duration strategic bond allocation at this time.
Those who want to stick to traditional 60% allocation to stocks and 40% to bonds may consider focusing on only high quality bonds and bonds of five year duration or less.&nbsp; Those willing to bring sophistication to their investing may consider using bond ETFs as tactical positions and not strategic positions at this time.

The German economy faces strong headwinds despite data showing that Europe's largest exporter of goods returned to economic growth in the third quarter, beating analysts' estimates.&nbsp;
The economy <a target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener" href="https://www.destatis.de/EN/Press/2024/10/PE24_408_811.html">grew by 0.2% quarter-on-quarter in Q3</a>, from an initial -0.1% in Q2, the Federal Statistical Office (Destatis) reported today. But it shrank by 0.2% on the year in Q3 after price and calendar adjustments, Destatis said. Analysts had a Q3 forecast of -0.1%.

German inflation accelerated to 2% in October from 1.6% in September, or well <a href="https://tradingeconomics.com/germany/calendar">above the expected 1.8%</a>, Destatis <a href="https://www.destatis.de/EN/Press/2024/10/PE24_409_611.html" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">data showed today</a>. Food prices, which accelerated 2.3% in October from 1.6% in September, and higher energy prices drove inflation higher.&nbsp;
The German DAX40 declined 1.1% today, closing at 19,266.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">German Economy Remains Stuck In Stagflation</h3>
Though positive, the German economy, Europe's largest, faces considerable challenges due to both cyclical and structural headwinds.
"The German economy avoided a technical recession in the third quarter, showing unexpected growth," <a href="https://think.ing.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">ING Think</a> said. "However, <a href="https://think.ing.com/snaps/german-gdp-q3-24/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">this does not change the fact that the</a> economy remains stuck in stagnation.&#8221;&nbsp;
Germany revised its second quarter's contraction to -0.3% quarter-on-quarter from the initial -0.1%. This "somewhat dampened" the "positive surprise," ING Think said. &nbsp;
The rise in GDP growth coincided with an improvement in consumer sentiment in November, though the level still remains low, a survey showed on Tuesday. The Gfk German Consumer Climate Index <a target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener" href="https://nielseniq.com/global/en/news-center/2024/germany-consumer-climate-climbs-to-its-highest-level-since-april-2022/">is forecast to rise by 2.7 points to -18.3 points</a> in November compared to the previous month.

<h3 class="wp-block-heading">German Economy Hurt By Crises, Wars</h3>
Although this was the highest level in Gfk German Consumer Climate Index since April 2022, Germans are "pessimistic about overall economic development," the survey said.
"The <a href="https://nielseniq.com/global/en/news-center/2024/germany-consumer-climate-climbs-to-its-highest-level-since-april-2022/">uncertainty caused by crises</a>, wars and rising prices is still very much present," Rolf Bürkl, consumer expert at the Nuremberg Institute for Market Decisions, said.&nbsp;
"Reports of a rising number of company insolvencies and plans to cut jobs or relocate production abroad are also preventing a more significant recovery in consumer sentiment," Bürkl added.
 Volkswagen (OTC:<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/VWAGY">VWAGY</a>), for example, announced on Monday the<a href="https://www.reuters.com/business/autos-transportation/volkswagen-plans-major-layoffs-shut-least-three-german-plants-works-council-head-2024-10-28/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"> closure of three German factories</a> and potential mass layoffs. <a href="https://europeancapitalinsights.substack.com/p/volkswagen-considers-first-ever-closure?r=3nmatg" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">High operating costs, a weak electric vehicle lineup</a>, and diminishing demand in key markets drove the decision.&nbsp;
The group is closing factories to cut costs while a looming trade war with China weighs on sentiment after the European Union <a href="https://europeancapitalinsights.substack.com/p/europe-carmakers-criticize-eus-chinese?r=3nmatg">(EU) imposed tariffs on electric vehicles</a>.&nbsp;
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Volkswagen's Costs Rise, As Layoffs Loom</h3>
Facing pressure from intense competition and rising energy and labor expenses, <a href="https://europeancapitalinsights.substack.com/publish/posts/detail/148759456?referrer=%2Fpublish%2Fposts">Volkswagen has taken unprecedented steps to close plants</a> on German soil. This is the first time it had done so in the company's 87-year history.
Volkswagen brand <a target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener" href="https://www.volkswagen-newsroom.com/en/curriculum-vitae-thomas-schaefer-7819">CEO Thomas Schäfer </a>pointed out the <a target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener" href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2024-10-28/vw-eyes-closing-three-german-factories-in-cost-cutting-push">problems in domestic production</a>, as plants operate 25-50% above the firm's target expenses. "We are not productive enough at our German locations," Schäfer stated, stressing the urgent need for cost cuts.
Meanwhile, Volkswagen's works council head Daniela Cavallo called the plan "a starvation, a weakening in installments" that threatens "tens of thousands of jobs in Germany."
"Management is absolutely serious about all this," she said. "This is not saber-rattling in the collective bargaining round."

<h3 class="wp-block-heading">German Economy Will Feel Strain Of Plant Closures</h3>
The closures are poised to further strain the German economy, sparking concerns about the long-term future of its industrial economy. GDP <a href="https://europeancapitalinsights.substack.com/p/german-recession-fears-rise-after?r=3nmatg" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">is already forecasted to contract for a second consecutive year</a>.
Volkswagen's main restructuring plan sees salary freezes for 2025 and 2026 and a reduction in existing salary levels by at least 10%. It will abolish one-off payments for workers who have stayed at the company for 25 and 35 years. This could <a target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener" href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2024-10-28/vw-eyes-closing-three-german-factories-in-cost-cutting-push">impact up to 140,000 workers</a>.
In response, workers protest the proposed changes in Wolfsburg, home to the company's headquarters. The powerful IG Metall union has <a target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener" href="https://www.industriall-union.org/ig-metall-members-commence-warning-strikes">threatened strikes</a> by December if no agreement is reached.
VW (OTCPK: VLKAF) shares fell to €88.92, reaching the second-lowest point in 2024, far below the intra-year peak of €123.30.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">EU Tariffs On China's EVs Will Hurt German Economy</h3>
As Volkswagen shutters plants, the EU has introduced <a target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener" href="https://www.nytimes.com/2024/10/30/business/european-union-china-electric-vehicle-tariffs.html">new tariffs</a> on electric vehicles (EVs) imported from China. This will escalate trade tensions over Chinese subsidies, which may have a significant impact on German car manufacturers.&nbsp;
As of October 30, the EU introduced tariffs ranging between 7.8% and 35.3% on Chinese EV makers. This is in addition to the existing 10% import duty, with the highest surcharge applied to vehicles from Chinese state-owned automaker SAIC.&nbsp;
The Chinese Ministry of Commerce dismissed the tariffs as "trade protectionism" and has vowed to safeguard Chinese businesses' interests. It <a target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener" href="https://www.spglobal.com/commodityinsights/en/market-insights/latest-news/metals/103024-china-files-wto-dispute-against-eus-countervailing-duties-on-imports-of-chinese-evs">lodged a complaint</a> with the World Trade Organization.
Volkswagen's financial chief, <a target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener" href="https://www.volkswagen-group.com/en/images/detail/arno-antlitz-cfo-and-coo-volkswagen-group-and-oliver-blume-ceo-volkswagen-group-81417">Arno Antlitz</a>, cautioned that "under a tariffs regime, an industry only loses time." He warned that Chinese automakers might still access the market through European-based production.
This tactic is underway, with Chinese automakers BYD and Leapmotor s<a target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener" href="https://www.nytimes.com/2024/09/19/business/china-automakers-eu-tariffs.html#:~:text=In%20July%2C%20Turkey%20announced%20that,be%20subject%20to%20the%20tariffs.">etting up production facilities </a>in Europe and Turkey to sidestep tariffs.&nbsp;
"In a world in which, at least in manufacturing, China has become the new Germany,' Germany's old macro business model of cheap energy and easily accessible large export markets is no longer working," ING Think said. "Looking ahead, there is very little reason to expect any imminent relief."
