China's rare earth clampdown strains global auto production
BMI, a Fitch Solutions company, reports mounting strain across the global automotive industry amid new rare earth export restrictions introduced by Mainland China. Analysts at BMI caution that a recently implemented licensing system has significantly delayed magnet shipments, critical components in electric vehicle (EV) motors and modern vehicle subsystems, raising the risk of production halts across major automakers. The restrictions come in the wake of increased US tariffs on Chinese goods, prompting the EU to urge Beijing to ease its controls. According to BMI, the delays threaten to derail their near-term forecasts for global vehicle production, which currently predict a 2.3% rise in 2025 to 95.8 million units following a slight contraction in 2024. 'The new bottlenecks in rare earth magnet supply pose significant downside risks to global vehicle output,' BMI analysts warn, pointing to recent disruptions at Ford, Suzuki, and broader warnings from Germany's VDA industry group. EV production is expected to be hit especially hard, given its heavier reliance on these magnets compared to internal combustion engine (ICE) vehicles. Europe's auto sector is particularly vulnerable, BMI notes, as 98% of its rare earth magnets are imported from China, which holds 90% of global processing capacity. While the EU's Critical Raw Materials Act aims to bolster domestic capacity, BMI emphasises that European processing lacks both cost competitiveness and scale, making the bloc heavily dependent on Chinese suppliers. As the crisis unfolds, BMI anticipates shifts in sourcing strategies, including potential relocations of production to China despite tariff implications, and a rollback of certain non-essential vehicle features to reduce reliance on rare earths. Some automakers may even consider reverting to older EV motor designs that require fewer critical minerals. BMI concludes that the current disruption underscores the fragility of automotive supply chains in the face of strategic material bottlenecks, particularly as global electrification efforts intensify.

Tesla faces new challenge as leader announces exit
As Elon Musk shifts his focus back to Tesla (TSLA) amid an ongoing disagreement with President Donald Trump, his company is preparing for another leadership change. The automaker has expanded into other areas of technology in recent years, prompting its leaders to consistently remind investors that it is more than just a car company. In particular, Musk has touted Tesla's Optimus program, its division that develops robotic humanoid technology. Don't miss the move: Subscribe to TheStreet's free daily newsletter The Tesla CEO hasn't downplayed Tesla's progress in this area, describing its Optimus bot as the "most sophisticated humanoid robot on earth," and describing a future in which humans are outnumbered by robots. This may sound like the plot of a science fiction novel, but Musk has made it clear he believes it is an inevitable phase of technology. However, his robotic ambitions may be facing a new obstacle. According to recent reports, the program's leader is leaving Tesla. Image source: Zawrzel/NurPhoto via Getty Images Aside from Musk, many of Tesla's leaders aren't widely known, as they typically operate behind the scenes, helping build and supervise the company's various divisions. But on June 6, Milan Kovac revealed he would step down from his position as vice president of engineering at Optimus. Related: Tesla sales plunge in key European markets with one shocking exception In a post on X, Kovac laid out his plans for the future, stating that he felt the need to spend more time with his family abroad. "I want to make it clear that this is the only reason, and has absolutely nothing to do with anything else," he added, reaffirming his support for both Tesla and Musk. Kovac joined the company in 2016, initially as a staff software engineer at Tesla's Autopilot division. He spent years advancing through these ranks, ultimately being named director and later vice president of Optimus. During his years with Tesla, Kovac played a pivotal role in shaping both its autopilot and robotic humanoid technology. According to his LinkedIn profile, his responsibilities included "driving the engineering teams responsible for all the software foundations and infrastructure common between Optimus and Autopilot," helping guide both divisions forward. Kovac's departure seems to be due to strictly personal reasons and appears unrelated to any controversy surrounding Musk or Tesla. But his swift exit comes at a difficult time for the company, as it prepares for an event on which Musk has hinged much of its growth prospects. On June 12, Tesla plans to roll out its fleet of self-driving robotaxis in Austin, Texas, delivering on something Musk has promised Tesla's investors and loyalists for some time. More Tesla News: Billionaire fund manager dumps Tesla in favor of other tech stockAnalyst sets eye-popping Tesla stock price targetTesla takes drastic measures to keep robotaxi plans secret As TheStreet reports, though, recent data has demonstrated low public trust in Tesla's autonomous driving technology, indicating that many believe it is likely unsafe, and some think it shouldn't be legal. This raises more questions for the company as it prepares for a major event and a key leadership change. While most recent Tesla coverage has centered around the robotaxi launch and Musk's feud with Trump, other tech leaders have been doubling down on their own robotic endeavors. TheStreet's Fernanda Tronco recently reported that Amazon has begun testing humanoid robots to deliver its packages. Related: The 'anti-Tesla' gives American buyers more good news This means that Tesla may be at risk of being overtaken in the robotic technology market, which isn't part of Musk's plans. "The future of the company is fundamentally based on large-scale autonomous cars and large-scale and large volume, vast numbers of autonomous humanoid robots," he stated on a recent Tesla earnings call. If that is true, Tesla likely can't afford to fall behind, as companies like Amazon power forward, making strides toward delivering helpful robotic humanoid technology. Musk has pinned Tesla's future on its Optimus and its self-driving technology, just as the person who helped build both divisions is departing. Autopilot and AI software team VP Ashok Elluswamy is reportedly taking over Kovac's position. How the company will handle this important change as it prepares for a highly pivotal event remains to be seen.

Boeing sent a new plane on a 3-day journey to China in fresh sign of easing trade tensions
Boeing has sent a plane to China for the first time since tariff tensions boiled over, ahead of further trade talks between the US and China. The 737 Max touched down in Zhoushan around noon local time on Monday, according to data from FlightAware. It concluded a lengthy transpacific journey that began on Friday, when the plane, registered as N230BE, flew from Seattle to Hawaii. On Saturday, it had another refuelling stop in Guam. China is 16 hours ahead of Seattle, so though the plane arrived three calendar days after it first took off at around 10 a.m. local time Friday, its journey was roughly 59 hours in total. Boeing did not immediately respond to a request for comment. This wasn't the first time that this jet, painted in the livery of Xiamen Airlines, crossed the ocean. Flight-tracking data shows it first departed Seattle in March, only to end up back there a month later. It was one of three planes that Boeing sent back to the US in April from its delivery center in Zhoushan after trade tensions escalated. President Donald Trump had introduced tariffs as high as 145%, and China retaliated by imposing a 125% fee on anything imported from the US. "Many of our customers in China have indicated they will not take delivery," Boeing CEO Kelly Ortberg said on an earnings call later that month. He added that around 50 planes would instead be resold to other airlines. However, tariff tensions have since eased. In May, talks saw the US reduce its levy on Chinese products to 30%, while China reduced its tariffs to 10%. On Monday, the two countries are set to meet for another round of talks in London in hopes of resolving the trade war. That's especially welcome news for Boeing. Ortberg said China accounts for about 10% of its commercial-aircraft order book. Meanwhile, rival planemaker Airbus predicts China will be the world's biggest market for aviation services by 2043, accounting for 20% of all aircraft deliveries. The European firm received a boost last week after Bloomberg reported that China is mulling an order for hundreds of Airbus jets. Airbus stock subsequently rose more than 3%.
