Tesla faces a challenging year ahead, with investors anticipating a 9% sales decline in 2025 following a 13% drop in quarterly deliveries, attributed largely to brand damage from Elon Musk's political affiliations. Analysts predict a 5% sales drop this year, compounded by an aging vehicle lineup and increased competition, particularly in China and Europe. Musk's political involvement has sparked protests and vandalism against Tesla, raising concerns about the company's image and future growth.
Goldman Sachs has increased its end-2025 gold price forecast to $3,300 per ounce, citing stronger ETF inflows and rising central bank demand, particularly from China. The bank now anticipates central bank purchases of 70 metric tons per month, up from 50 tons, driven by U.S. policy uncertainty and expectations of continued gold buying. This follows similar adjustments by Bank of America, which raised its gold price projections for 2025 and 2026 amid ongoing trade policy uncertainties.
Apple's iPhone shipments in China fell 25% in Q4 2024, with the company maintaining a narrow market lead at 17% share, shipping 13.1 million units. Huawei closely followed with a 17% share and 12.9 million units shipped, marking a significant resurgence since its return to the premium segment. To counteract competitive pressures, Apple has implemented various strategies to enhance user retention and improve retail experiences.
U.S. stock futures indicate a positive start on Wall Street, buoyed by recent inflation data and the avoidance of a government shutdown. The dollar remains strong due to high bond yields, while European markets face challenges amid political turmoil and a declining euro. Oil prices are pressured by a robust dollar and concerns over Chinese demand.
Australia's prudential regulator will phase out Additional Tier 1 (AT1) hybrid bonds over the next eight years, citing their ineffectiveness in absorbing losses during crises. The Australian Prudential Regulation Authority (APRA) aims to replace these with more reliable capital forms, responding to recent global banking turmoil. Changes to prudential standards are expected to be finalized by the end of 2025, with implementation set for January 1, 2027.
