Nestlé S.A., the world's leading food group, reports its sales breakdown by product family: powdered and liquid beverages (26.9%), pet food (20.7%), pharmaceutical and nutrition products (16.6%), prepared dishes and seasonings (11.7%), dairy and ice creams (11.4%), chocolates and cookies (9.2%), and packaged waters (3.5%).

UBS's analysis reveals that U.S. auto parts and technology stocks could face significant profit losses under various tariff scenarios with Mexico and Canada, particularly if companies fail to adjust prices or reduce volumes. Gentex Corporation, despite recent earnings misses, remains well-positioned with strong financials and a focus on growth, including a forecasted revenue increase for 2025 and a strategic acquisition of VOXX International Corporation. The analysis underscores the critical need for companies to manage increased costs effectively in a challenging market environment.
Scotiabank has appointed Pablo Elek, previously a top executive at HSBC's Mexico unit, as CEO of its Mexican operations, effective May 15. This move aligns with the bank's strategy to focus on North America, as it shifts capital away from Latin America, including the transfer of operations in Colombia, Costa Rica, and Panama to Banco Davivienda. CEO Scott Thomson noted that while the bank is cautious about U.S. tariffs, it remains committed to its North American corridor strategy.
Barclays has lowered its price target on Eaton Corporation plc to $315 from $325 while maintaining an equal-weight rating.

Geographically, net sales are primarily from the United States (60.9%), followed by Europe (18.2%), Asia-Pacific (9.9%), Latin America (6.8%), and Canada (4.2%).

He has also stepped down from his role as vice chair of the Ontario Teachers’ Pension Plan, where he served since January 2023.

Scotiabank has appointed Pablo Elek, previously a top executive at HSBC's Mexico unit, as CEO of its Mexican operations, effective May 15. This move comes as the bank shifts its focus towards North America, having already transferred operations in Colombia, Costa Rica, and Panama to Banco Davivienda. Scotiabank's capital strategy reflects a significant emphasis on the U.S. and Canada, with Mexico contributing less than 10% to its earnings.
Elon Musk faces pressure from Tesla shareholders to focus on the company rather than his role in Trump's "DOGE" commission. Tom Lee of Fundstrat suggests that Trump may ease pressure on Tesla through tariff policies, which have negatively impacted the market. As Musk aligns with Trump's agenda, Tesla's brand image suffers, leading to a significant drop in stock value and a loss of its environmentally conscious customer base.
