Italian Icons on the Edge of Reinvention Under New Boss
Maserati and Alfa Romeo share a great deal of history; these two iconic marques are two of the hottest names in the premium segment. But things have become lukewarm for both brands, with uncertainty lying in their future within the Stellantis umbrella. With sales declining, Italian production plunging, and no new products on the horizon, Maserati is currently stagnant with no clear path forward. The same goes for Alfa Romeo, which is also having issues with its best-selling SUV. Needless to say, both Italian marques are in dire need of a concrete turnaround plan. It's happening soon, according to Maserati and Alfa Romeo CEO Santo Ficili, just in time for the appointment of Stellantis' new CEO, Antonio Filosa, who will start his regime on June 23, 2025. In an interview with Reuters, Ficili said that Maserati will reveal a business plan, just as soon as Filosa steps up to the plate. He's quite optimistic about the future of the brand and confident that Filosa, an Italian national, will back whatever is in place for the iconic marque. He also denied that Stellantis is planning to sell Maserati – a rumor that circulated last year but has been refuted since. "We have clear ideas about what we want to do, we hope we can be ready very soon. Let's wait for Antonio to take up his job," Ficili told the publication. He shared that new products are on the horizon, along with restructured relationships with dealers and improvements to its service network. Ficili added that all Maserati models will continue to be designed, engineered, and manufactured in Italy – a bold move, considering the current tariff woes in the U.S., where a substantial portion (30%) of the brand's sales come from. But what about Alfa Romeo? Ficili, also the head of Alfa Romeo, has confirmed that Stellantis will review its strategy, too. He didn't share further details about this, as it seems like the automaker is focusing on Maserati first. We should know more by the end of the month. Alfa Romeo is currently struggling, not only with sales but also with the development of its upcoming products. Specifically, the next-generation Stelvio, Alfa's best-selling model, is in doubt since the company backpedaled from its full-electric lineup strategy, now heading to a hybrid path. However, a new post today suggests something new will be revealed next week: Of note, 15% of Alfa Romeo's sales are from America, the world's second-biggest automotive market. Again, tariffs will play a significant role in both automakers' business plans, for which Stellantis hired the consulting firm McKinsey.

STMicro Will Eliminate 5,000 Jobs in the Next Three Years, Says CEO
CEO Jean-Marc Chery revealed at a BNP Paribas event in Paris that STMicroelectronics N.V. (NYSE:STM) will lose 5,000 workers over the next three years, including 2,800 job layoffs that have already been publicized. A worker assembling the inner circuitry of a semiconductor product. It is anticipated that 2,000 of the total will depart naturally, with voluntary departures making up additional reductions. Chery pointed out that continuing talks with local authorities were the reason for implementation delays, especially in Italy. The French and Italian governments jointly share a 27.5% interest in STMicroelectronics N.V. (NYSE:STM), which employs 50,000 people worldwide. Its cost-cutting initiative, which was started in late 2024, is to reduce the workforce through early retirement and attrition in order to save hundreds of millions by 2027. In April, the business announced that 1,000 of the 2,800 scheduled layoffs would be voluntary in France. According to reports, the Italian government has opposed further cuts and has pushed to limit them to 1,000. Market declines and CEO-targeted insider trading accusations, which the company refutes, are additional factors putting pressure on the business. While we acknowledge the potential of STM as an investment, our conviction lies in the belief that some AI stocks hold greater promise for delivering higher returns and have limited downside risk.
