Sony is hiking PS5 console prices. Here's what we know.
Sony (SONY) is increasing the price of each of its PlayStation 5 consoles by $50. Yahoo Finance Technology Editor Dan Howley joins Market Domination Overtime with Josh Lipton to explain what we know so far. To watch more expert insights and analysis on the latest market action, check out more Market Domination Overtime. Sony, raising the price of its PlayStation 5 consoles by $50 each in the US. Joining me now is someone who is all plugged into this. That would be Yahoo Finance tech editor Dan Howley. Dan! My goodness. Uh yeah, you just saw that. The PlayStation 5 Pro 749 for a starting price. Uh these are steep prices, right? 4.99 for the no disc version, 549 for the disc version. I'm just going to go go out there, just get the disc version. There's only so much memory on the no disc and then you got to delete and everything like that. But this is a big deal. This, they say, is a result of quote unquote economic conditions. They don't specifically say tariffs, but you can read between those lines pretty well that it's probably tariffs. These are uh machines that are built overseas, some in China, some in Vietnam. Um you know, and it's something that's happened to a bunch of companies already. Microsoft's Xbox, they raised prices. Nintendo, oddly enough, raised the price on the original Switch, but not the new one, the Switch 2. They did, however, raise the price uh the initial announced price on accessories, and I noticed when I bought my switch, it came from Vietnam, rather than China. The tariffs on Vietnam at that point were lower than the ones on China. So all these companies are dealing with this at the same time. And you know, it it hits at an odd point because I look at the console that's in my, you know, on my uh entertainment center at home, and now it's worth more than it was when I originally bought it. $50 more, right? But the Xbox worth, I forget how much they raised it, but I think it was around $50. Also worth more. A switch that I had forever ago is is now more expensive. So it's it's something that's going to impact the the game industry as far as the hardware goes for for a while. I I guess we'll just have to see if they eventually lower the prices again. Obviously that happens over the course of a console uh uh life cycle. At this point we'd usually be starting to see prices drop, not increase by 50 bones. So it's it's a lot. How, if at all, my friend, do you think this price hike we're talking about here, how could it impact demand in in the broader gaming industry? It's going to impact demand. Uh you know, it's it's look, you would look at something like, I mean, 749 is like, you know, I mean, I wasn't going to buy the Pro to begin with. No, you know, I want to. It's just a a big amount of money to drop on a console, right? That the the $500 is is is a lot. People are going to look at that and the folks who were on the bubble who say, oh, you know, it's a good entertainment center and I can use it for, you know, a game like Grand Theft Auto or something when that comes out. I mean, that's going to help move systems for sure, but in the interim, I think people would look that look at that and say, I don't necessarily need this now just because it's that extra money. And you know, we're starting to see game prices increase. Nintendo raised the prices of some of their games. Uh I believe the new Mario Kart World, 80 bucks. We were talking off air though. Everyone chill out. I know that 80 bucks is a lot of money, but games in like the 90s were also 80 bucks. We've skated pretty well on game prices for a long time. The price to develop them is getting higher, so that's just, you know, the way the the the world. Uh I think though that if you combine those two factors, it's going to be an issue for for game companies, except for the likes of Epic. They have free to play games. They have Fortnite, uh Call of Duty is free to play, but they they make a lot of that uh scratch on those, you know, get the new skins, look like Seth Rogan or something in you know, Call of Duty, whatever. The Squid Game folks, Fortnite, you know, you have eight billion people in there, you're fighting an Oreo and a banana or whatever. That ends up making them a ton of cash. So free to play is going to be making a lot of money. These these, you know, don't expect people to be going out buying a console and then, you know, two games along with it and a controller. Don't even get me started on the price of controller. 80 bucks for a controller? Whoa! That's that's nuts. I mean, like I said, it's the price of doing business at this point, but I do think it's going to impact how much people want to get out there and actually buy. All right, Dan Howley, thank you, my friend. For sure.

Trump's EU Trade Deal Slashes Tariffs--And Tesla Could Be One of the First Big Winners
This article first appeared on GuruFocus. The US and EU just moved one step closer to reshaping the world's biggest trading partnershipand the implications could hit fast. The joint statement released Thursday sets the stage for immediate tariff relief on European auto imports once the EU formally introduces its own industrial goods proposal. That move would cut US tariffs on European cars from 27.5% down to 15%, possibly within weeks, with Germanywhose exports totaled $34.9 billion in 2024standing to benefit most. President Donald Trump, who once threatened 30% tariffs, is now pushing this as a big deal, reinforcing his emphasis on bilateral deals and economic security. The EU's top leadership, including Ursula von der Leyen, praised the pact as a boost for citizens, companies, and stability in global trade. Warning! GuruFocus has detected 5 Warning Signs with BX. Is TSLA fairly valued? Test your thesis with our free DCF calculator. But autos are just the beginning. The US has agreed to apply lower MFN tariffs on key EU goodsthink aircraft parts, generic pharmaceuticals, corkand put a ceiling on future levies for semiconductors and lumber. In return, the EU plans to open its doors to US seafood and agricultural exports like pork, soybean oil, and processed foods. Steel and aluminum, once facing a hard 50% tariff wall, could now slip through under a quota-based frameworkmarking a potential shift in Trump's original stance. That said, not everything made the cut: alcohol and medical devices were left out, and questions linger over the EU's broader commitment to invest $600 billion in the US and purchase $750 billion in American energy products by 2028. Tech and defense could be next in line. The EU says it'll ramp up procurement of US military equipment and buy at least $40 billion worth of AI chips. On digital trade, the EU pledged not to introduce controversial network usage fees, while hinting at more flexibility in its upcoming carbon border tax. Small businesses might get compliance relief, but no promises were made on scaling back EU digital regulations. For investors watching Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA), Airbus (EADSY), chipmakers, and commodity exporters, this isn't just noiseit could be the start of a reordering in tariffs, quotas, and competitive access that sets the tone for the next phase of transatlantic trade.

Blackstone's $1.6B Power Grab Could Supercharge the Grid Revolution
This article first appeared on GuruFocus. Blackstone (NYSE:BX) is leaning harder into the electrification megatrend. The firm's energy-focused arm, Blackstone Energy Transition Partners, has struck a $1.6 billion dealincluding debtto acquire Shermco Industries, one of North America's largest electrical testing and maintenance firms. Shermco isn't just a niche playerit runs over 600 field technicians and 200 engineers across the U.S. and Canada, providing services to critical sectors like semiconductors, data centers, auto manufacturing, and food production. It's the kind of backbone infrastructure play that fits squarely within Blackstone's broader thesis: electrification isn't optionalit's foundational. Warning! GuruFocus has detected 5 Warning Signs with BX. Is BX fairly valued? Test your thesis with our free DCF calculator. This isn't a one-off. The Shermco deal follows a string of recent moves by Blackstone Energy Transition Partners, led by Senior Managing Director David Foley. Earlier this month, the group announced a $6 billion-plus acquisition of energy analytics platform Enverusone of its largest to datealongside earlier deals in grid infrastructure, engineering, and power system services, including names like Potomac Energy Center, Sediver, Westwood, and Trystar. Foley's team isn't putting all its chips on one bet. We're not betting it all on one area, he told Bloomberg. Instead, they're building a diversified portfolio that could offer durability through the many twists of the energy transition. Backing that ambition is real capitaland performance to match. The team's latest fund, Blackstone Energy Transition Partners IV, closed at its $5.6 billion hard cap. That's roughly 30% larger than its predecessor, which reportedly delivered a net IRR of around 25%. With Shermco now under its umbrella, Blackstone could be positioning itself to ride a wave of long-term electrification tailwinds, especially as industrial demand for reliable, resilient electrical infrastructure continues to rise.
