Toyota and Daimler Just Shocked the Trucking World with a $6.4B Power Play
Toyota (NYSE:TM) and Daimler Truck just sealed a $6.4 billion merger between their Japanese truck divisionsHino Motors and Mitsubishi Fusosetting the stage for a heavyweight in commercial vehicles that could finally give China's EV truck momentum a run for its money. The two companies have been circling this deal since May 2023, but an engine data scandal at Hino and a record $1.2 billion U.S. settlement delayed the closing. Now it's official. The new entity, which will sell over 200,000 units a year, is expected to go live by April 2026, with a planned listing in Japan. Toyota and Daimler Truck will each hold 25% of the holding company, but Toyota's voting rights will be capped at 19.9%. Warning! GuruFocus has detected 3 Warning Sign with TM. This merger could be a defensive playand possibly a hydrogen-powered counterattack. With battery-electric vehicles already dominating cars, Toyota sees trucking as the best shot to scale its hydrogen fuel cell bets. That's key, especially as CATL's Robin Zeng recently projected that half of all new trucks sold in China could be electric by 2028. The combined group, led by Mitsubishi Fuso CEO Karl Deppen, gives Japan a consolidated commercial vehicle force to compete on tech and scale, while leaving Isuzu to lead the other half of the domestic market. Jefferies puts the combined group's equity value at 5.6 billion, pegging it at 11x EBIT. There's more. As part of the deal, Toyota is buying Hino's Hamura plant for 150 billion ($1 billion)a site where it already builds the Hilux and Land Cruiser 250. This adds to the company's broader restructuring, including a planned $33 billion take-private of Toyota Industries. But the road ahead won't be smooth. Both Toyota and Daimler Truck have lost ground in market share, and U.S. tariffs haven't made life easier. Still, in a market shifting fast toward electrification and autonomy, the merger could help them stay in the fightespecially if hydrogen ends up playing a bigger role than expected.

Lowell man pleads guilty to trafficking guns, drugs, machinegun conversion devices
A Lowell man has pleaded guilty to multiple federal crimes after he was recorded illegally selling numerous guns, thousands of methamphetamine pills and machineguns, the U.S. Attorney said. Billy Chan, a/k/a 'Juju,' 20, pleaded guilty on Friday to one count each of engaging in the business of dealing in firearms without a license, conspiracy to distribute and to possess with intent to distribute 500 grams and more of methamphetamine, distribution and possession with intent to distribute methamphetamine, and transfer and possession of a machinegun, U.S. Attorney Leah Foley said in a statement on Monday. U.S. District Judge Angel Kelley scheduled sentencing for Sept. 17. On five different dates in Lowell between March 2023 and June 2023, Chan sold three handguns, four machinegun conversion devices and approximately 2,000 pills marketed as 'Adderall,' to undercover law enforcement, prosecutors said. Laboratory testing confirmed that the 'Adderall' pills were homemade methamphetamine pills pressed with caffeine and designed to look like the genuine pharmaceutical product. Chan trafficked the counterfeit pills with another person who was a member of the Asian Boyz gang, prosecutors said. An investigation found that in 2023, Asian Boyz gang members and associates had access to 'a plentiful supply of counterfeit pills containing methamphetamine, which they distributed widely across the Merrimack Valley region,' prosecutors said. During a recorded meeting with a cooperating source, Chan said he worked at a machine shop, could make the machinegun conversion 'switch' devices himself and gave instructions and demonstrations on how to install the 'switches' on a pistol, prosecutors said. A few days later, prosecutors said Chan sent the source a video of a person shooting a fully automatic handgun into the air, with the message: 'I let my boys test the switch.'
