vw employs more than 600,000 people.ouncil meeting in the coming hours to discuss the situation. union leaders have said they will fiercely oppose the planned cuts. professor dr ferdinand dudenhoffer is director of the center for automotive research in bochum, germany. he's a former senior executive at porsche, opel, peugeot and citroen. welcome to the programme. for vw to say we will not lay off staff, is this the problem in this environment we are in right now, such hot competition from china?— from china? yes, china is important. _ from china? yes, china is important, let's _ from china? yes, china is important, let's look- from china? yes, china is important, let's look at i from china? yes, china is. important, let's look at the brandon we look at in germany we see two things. on one hand we see two things. on one hand we see two things. on one hand we see high energy prices in germany, higher loans and all the things, and it is very difficult to lay off employment and manpower, for example. it is one thing. we have

we continue to monitor those negotiations within vw >>> when it comes to u.s. futures, it's how we're shaping up ahead of the open on wall street it seems it could be a lower start to the trading session on wall street. however, we're pointing out that we're going to get new home sales figures. of course, investors have also been figuring out what's the message from fed officials thus far, which has been focused on future rate cuts i also want to take a brief look at the chinese tech frames we saw pressure on jd.com and baidu. this amid the pressures that officials in china have announced, however, it's failing to attract momentum for a couple of these names that's it for this show. i'm silvia amaro "worldwide exchange" is coming up next. you didn't start a business just to keep the lights on. lucky for you, shopify built the just one-tapping, ridiculously fast-acting, sky-high sales stacking champion of checkouts. businesses that want to win, win with shopify. ah, these bills are crazy. she has no idea she's sitting on a goldmine. well she doesn't know that if

does a lower rate cycle impact this for vw, but really across autos?> i think the overall 12 months is not fair. if you look at it over three, five or ten years, tesla has done well even if the last 12 to 18 months have been challenging for them. i think most automotive stocks have done very poorly because investors understand that 2025 and 2026 will see a disarray of the brand we have seen in the global production demand. at the same when such central technical changes take place continuously and also substantial months of production come out of china. you have a major amount of tensions and i think investors participate in substantial cuts for earnings in '25 or '26 for the overall sector. you have seen volkswagen and tesla slash prices despite completely different changes in earnings expectations in both names. this forecast has been smashed substantially more for volkswagen. i think there is a greater hope for investors that it is in a better position due to its positions in software and technology and batteries. >> thomas, also, maybe they overest

that's something vw�*s main union wants to see.ketplace for consumers. policymakers need more drivers to move away from internal combustion engines. we need incentives for electric vehicles. incentives means looking at subsidies — we need to think helping people on low incomes to buy a new car. germany's economy minister says the government will support vw — but it'll have to fix the majority of its problems — itself. that could mean facing harsh realities for the firm's 300 thousand staff in germany. and we close with this. we've all seen how retail is changing with a lot more spent online than in store. the speed and convenience of online shopping has seen e—commerce sales exceed $6.3 trillion this year alone according to statista. but it's upended the sector and stores are compelled to offer a bigger and better shopping experience. tomorrow, ingka centres, part of the ikea group, will be opening livat shanghai a 430,000 square metre retail complex worth a record—breaking eight billion yuan — that's $1.1 billion. well, let's talk

so say vw is, i call me good fault. i can actually stand. there's hardly any other company. ready 80 for the success of german industry over the last 9 decades issue on so. so what this story is telling us that for years of economic stick nation times. ready is also deteriorating international competitiveness to do something to any economy. they make investments and activities in this economy less attractive. so so, so therefore i think this should be a wake up call. now on the final wake up call after so many other wake up calls. i'm also furniture and policy makers, politicians to um, to restart interesting and reforming so that the country can become again more attractive. whether this is actually that we still have to have is such a strong automotive power house. i don't know the world is also changing. an economic sources are changing, but in any case, we do need much more investments and we do need structural reforms in order to make the journey economy more competitive just again. and what would some of those reforms and investments be if the german government does th

things did not pan out, vw is the one that has the most work to do.rticular governance, it makes it really hard. tom: given the structured and the role of unions on the board how challenging will it be to cut down or shut those plants? elizabeth: if history is a guide you would say not very lots of key executives have vacated their seats over plans like this so all blumer will be in a tough spot even as vw breaks in profits. they may billions that the competition is growing, they need to make changes him -- last year they made 9 million. but the plants most at risk would be in the high cost areas of western europe and that is where vw has most plants among those high costs. palm: elizabeth with the latest in terms of historic closures in day to remind you that on our website and on the terminal. looking to finally name a prime minister overt or country's. he is kevin. does the risk become unwound if we get the prime minister named? kevin: i'm not sure. when we look at the french traded versus germany they have gone up since last june moving from 40 ba

we're still watching vw for that. volkswagen's oliver bloom set to face unions as they plan to close down what looks like two plants in germany, which could be quite a monumental aspect to look at in that market picture. we'll get sentiment and word on that throughout the show too and a draw down on the market. a quick look at the sectors what's driving markets down. it's that technology sector then. that's because some of the semiconductor plays have taken a bit of a hit. stateside the semiconductor etf had its worst day since march 2020. what was happening march 2020? it was the pandemic, right? pretty much at the beginning of how it was being felt, the ripples across the remainder of the world. big declines on that day, falling 8.31%. it's the chipmakers that have taken a hit. state side, yes, but so, too, across europe, as you're seeing a fall of 5%. this is really at the bottom of the stoxx 600. >>> earlier this morning we also took a look at the asian market picture. this was also fairly negative, taking all tha

of the road as an industrial powerhouse at a special meeting of the work force that is headquarters. vw executives told employees that the company may have to close factories in germany if it's to survive a huge slump in car sales, a competition from chinese car makers and a failure to innovate electric car technology has left them chasing the pack. so what does that mean for made in germany? i will be speaking to a top german economist in just a moment. but 1st, this report on the day a german car manufacturing giants told his workers, there's trouble had of frustration and anger mocked this thoughts of the meeting. folks, while good management laid out his plans to scrap a job security agreement, the company has had with his work is for us to use the sacrifice of the mood was very divided as a large division between the what council and the board. i've never seen that this bad and then whenever the works council speaks, they cheer and when the board speaks, there's boeing. i'm speaking with i was good. i just a moment because when people express themselves very clearly, it's like, yea

in fact, this was the electro goes from 1976. vw engineers big 20 of them and drove them around booth book for 10 years, gathering data and how they could improve back to tech for electric cars. the, let's see that. okay, and that's not a fuel filter that a socket. this car runs on electricity, electricity from the batteries apple products, and then they're charged via this socket. here. what is this that go? new versions included the gulf one cities trauma in 1981. the goal is to see the stroma in 1985 and the goals, 3 cities, trauma and 93. but it wasn't until 2014 the beat up. you begin to see the system to the eighty's again with the eagles. that slash forward to the ninety's when it ends, when being made to bring ease into the present or judging by the design of this machine. the future american call me cuz we're undergoing pressure from california to sell a certain percentage of 0 emission vehicles if they wanted to do business in the states. so gm booth and fluid the e v one from $96.00 to $99.00. now. so you know, something of cause callbacks and rumors about the gym sabotage,

i mean, the bottom line here is that vw, things it can't turn a profit, making cars under the current conditions in germany. what do you think that says about the made in germany model? was it simply too expensive? i mean that is actually my, the most important thing to say, dw is i call me good fault. i can actually stand. there's hardly any other common. ready 80 for the success of german industry over the last 9 decades if you one so. so what this story is telling us that 4 years of economic stagnation times. ready is also deteriorating international competitiveness to do something to an economy. they make investments and activities in this economy less attractive. so so, so therefore i think this should be a wake up call. now on the final wake up call after so many other wake of calls. also for jim thomas, he made his politicians to um, to restart interesting and reforming so that the country can become again more attractive. whether this is actually that we still have to have is such a strong automotive powerhouse. i don't know the world is also changing. an economic sources are

to work in a audi factory or vw factory or to do something like that is, is quite complicated because 1st they have to learn german, for example. so all of these ideas about, you know, being able to just take these refugees and, and to, to fill these, these gaps in the workforce are a little bit more more complicated than and then people think. but the interesting thing about the range and, and faxed me is that those are areas that have some of the, the, the, the lowest levels of migration in germany. most of the migrants who have come here are not in east germany there. and other parts of the country, but it is sort of in their heads that these asylum seekers pose a threat to german society, into german, german identities. and nadine, when you look at the f d's platform regarding immigration, has this also had an effect on other parties within germany, some of the more centrist or traditional ones as it drags them further towards the right on that issue. yeah, i think there are like domino effects that you can see that like one stone this a tipping and then another stone follows like

it's just a vw problem, but does it go wide? and it's definitely going wider because of the car makers have show a weakness to and much of it has to do with china. however, looking at the european sector, it is terrible enough with a china situation, but they do have another problem now too because the car market here, especially for electric vehicles, is not doing very well. and now that is leading to an interesting conundrum. here. brussels has of course, very strict emissions regulations. they set emission limits for the average car that a car make a sell so. so that's interesting. in terms of the product mix, the over the last couple of months, electric car sales have gone really down the others combustion still strong. so that kind of skews that whole thing. and now some of these carmakers could be fine . billions of euro's because they not make it within those regulated limits. so they're asking brussels now to loosen their regulation. otherwise, it would not only be expensive, but this thing that would be more job cuts if
