Tesla’s
(NASDAQ:TSLA) stock
has had a massive run since Trump’s Presidential win, with Elon Musk at his
side as one of his biggest supporters. The Tesla stock surge of over 30% since
the win was also fueled on expectations that Trump will advance a legislative
framework for autonomous vehicles,
In
the third quarter, Tesla produced approximately 470,000 vehicles, delivered
approximately 463,000 vehicles and deployed 6.9 GWh of energy storage
products.
Tesla says on
its website, “In 2012, the first Model S rolled off the assembly line at our factory
in Fremont, California. Today, we have the capacity to manufacture more than a
million vehicles every year, in addition to energy products, battery cells and
more.” Tesla also has Gigafactories in Nevada, New York and Texas.
With investors
seeing EV’s being a loser under Trump, a recent article in Forbes notes,
“Here’s
something else to think about: if Trump does reduce or eliminate incentives,
Tesla will be the main winner. Its cost base and vehicle platforms allow it to
sell EVs profitably, which might not be the case with other American and global
OEMs, who will struggle to match EV and ICE vehicle pricing.”
Last month,
General Motors (NYSE: GM) reported
third-quarter
2024 revenue of $48.8 billion, net income attributable to stockholders of $3.1
billion, and EBIT-adjusted of $4.1 billion.
GM's 2024
financial guidance includes anticipated capital spending of $10.5 billion -
$11.5 billion, inclusive of investments in the company's battery cell
manufacturing joint ventures.

increases in defense spending with Trump, last month’s news of GM Defense completing production of the first vehicles
in support of the Diplomatic Security Service's Heavy-Duty armored Sport
Utility Vehicle (HD SUV) program bodes well for 2025,
From the news: DSS is the law enforcement and
security arm of the U.S. Department of State.
GM Defense's
HD SUV solution, the Suburban Shield, features a new design with a unique
body-on-frame chassis and suspension to support increased vehicle weight and
performance requirements. The vehicle includes a high percentage of proven
commercial-off-the-shelf parts from General Motors' global supply chain,
including the body, exterior, propulsion, interior, and brakes, for added
reliability.
"Our
Suburban Shield significantly enhances the quality, performance, and safety
that is essential to the Diplomatic Security Service and provides our nation's
senior diplomats and their supporting teams a vehicle that enables their
important mission for diplomacy and national security," said Steve duMont,
GM Defense president.
According to CustomMarketInsights.com, “The US Automotive Market was
valued at USD 4.8 Billion in 2024 and is expected to reach USD 13.8 Billion by
2033, at a CAGR of 10.6% during the forecast period 2024 – 2033.
“The
automotive industry includes the design, development, manufacture, marketing,
and sale of automobiles, trucks, buses, and motorbikes. It involves a
complicated network of businesses, including automakers, suppliers,
dealerships, and aftermarket service providers.”
Trump’s
policies are going to reshape the future of the automotive industry and
suppliers like Worksport Ltd. (NASDAQ: WKSP) are
betting that their US-based manufacturing and innovation will be on the winning
end.
As
Bitcoin closes in on the $100,000 USD mark, US miner Riot Platforms, Inc. (NASDAQ: RIOT) is doing
its part to fulfill Trump’s US Bitcoin mining dream.

Colorado.

October, Riot achieved a new post-halving milestone in production, with 505
Bitcoin mined in the month,” said Jason Les, CEO of Riot. “This 23% increase in
production from September is a reflection of both the ongoing growth in our
deployed hash rate and of the efforts to improve our operational efficiency.”

Trump Trade effect has taken the market to new highs, Now, investors are
looking at what sectors will have long term gains. Automotive and crypto are
potentially ones to watch.
