GM Outlook, Coca-Cola Q1 Beat, UPS layoffs: Trendticker

00:00 Speaker A

Now time for some of today's trend kickers. We observe GM, Coca-Cola and UPS. At first General Motors pulled his profit guidelines from 2025 and made the purchase of shares in the uncertainty of the tariff. President Trump is expected to alleviate the effects of his car tariffs today. The Wall Street Journal reports that the deal will prevent the tasks in foreign cars from stacking on other tariffs that it has imposed the car manufacturer, delaying the phone conference here until Thursday. Only an additional context -related note here, which we heard from secretary Benson this morning, reminded and repeated that President Trump had meetings with domestic and foreign and foreign car producers and said that he had committed to bringing car production back to the USA. The attempt to give the car manufacturers a way to do this quickly, but the shared uncertainty for some of the instructions and prospects for car manufacturers at the moment.

And it is interesting if you look at the data what we have for GM due to the delay of this call, and the financial results have largely exceeded the expectations, but some potentially worrying signs here, which are projected here, especially with regard to GM. Results of the year. In addition, these results record that the first quarter makes the behavior of consumers who buy some cars to expect the effects of these tariffs. How much of this is a potential buoyancy before a potential downturn from tariff policy? Hopefully we will get some clarity about this when this call is made here. Next, let's talk about the estimates of Coca-Cola in the first quarter, which are increased by price increases and strong demand. The beverage manufacturer retains its 2025 guidelines that he expects the effects on the tariffs to be manageable. They became manageable. You have reduced the shares here about three quarter trial. What I find fascinating here about Coca-Cola is that after these results we first saw a pop in the share price, and now you can see a change to the disadvantage here. It is also interesting to see that the company called Trump's tariffs manageable. Obviously, this is the line when it comes to making companies talk about their ability to withstand the effects of these tariffs. With regard to mathematics, their net turnover increased a little to only touch and earn their organic sales growth of Overyear, just to touch.

Yes, the company has recognized some pressure in important developed markets. The chairman and CEO James Quincy said that the power of their global footprint enables them to navigate a complex external environment and also successfully here. Uh, you have also found in this type of volume sales mix that we continue to follow. The UH unit -case volume actually rose by 2%. Similarly, but overall this will be a persistent type of history that can be seen, especially if it refers to where consumers act or exchange Coca-Cola in some cases and possibly buy in large quantities, and which this also means for some of their larger sales partners. Uh and finally here, let's persuade us a little. UPS expect 20,000 jobs to be reduced this year in response to lower volumes. The shipping giant does not provide an update for the full annual outlook in economic uncertainty. This despite the first quarter in the first quarter. Shares of UPS, you see them higher here, at least early in stores by about half a percent. Of course, we have continued to pursue this in the course of this year, since some of the consumer has continued to navigate in the course of this year. They have still dropped by about 21%.

06:23 Speaker B

And critically no updates for his previously granted consolidated total annual prospects given the other uncertainty. It is also interesting to see that the income had increased, but sales were a sunken and up, especially about the use of their integrated network and trade competence, in which it leads to the future against this background.
