WiseTech faces competition concerns after $3.2b acquisition of e2open

Customers of the American freight business being acquired by WiseTech Global for $3.2 billion have asked the competition regulator to unwind the deal, concerned that the ASX-listed software giant will be too dominant. WiseTech, chaired by controversial billionaire businessman Richard White, said it would acquire e2open in May, adding its Expedient software to its CargoWise product. Both platforms are used by companies that ship goods around the world to create documents needed for customs officials.

Ford reveals plans for $46k electric ute to rival Chinese in 2027

Don't miss out on the headlines from Motoring. Followed categories will be added to My News. Ford is set to launch a Ranger-sized electric dual-cab ute in 2027, built on a brand new platform designed to make electric vehicles (EVs) cheaper and faster to build. The American giant said this could be its biggest turning point since the original Model T. The ute will debut in the US with a starting price of approximately US$30,000 (AUD 46,000) - far below the cost of most EV utes on sale. The US-built ute will be designed for global markets; however, Ford Australia says it's too early to confirm if the model will be sold locally. Ford CEO Jim Farley said the new EV will match the acceleration of a Mustang EcoBoost capable of 0-96km in approximately 4.9 seconds, while offering passengers more space than a Toyota RAV4, plus smart storage solutions.

The electric ute will be built at Ford's Louisville plant in Kentucky, backed by a US$2 billion (A$3bn) investment, alongside a US$3 billion (A$4.6bn) battery plant in Michigan. It will use the new EV platform and Ford's new assembly tree production method. Instead of one long production line, three parts of the vehicle are built separately, the front, rear and the battery and then brought together.

It will also be used across a variety of body styles. From mid-2025, Australia's New Vehicle Efficiency Standard will push carmakers to cut emissions, especially in high-selling utes. If Ford's electric ute makes it here, it will give Australian buyers, especially tradies, a far cheaper EV option than what's currently available. Final specifications will be revealed closer to launch. Originally published as Ford's new Ranger-size electric ute set to shake up Australia's ute market

China is playing the long game to win its war with Trump

US President Donald Trump's trade war was meant to rebalance global power in the United States' favour. Instead, China is playing the long game, enduring short-term economic pain to shape any eventual deal to its advantage. The strategy appears to be working — for now. On Monday, Washington granted Beijing another 90-day reprieve, extending a pause on tariffs through November 10. China announced it would do the same. Markets welcomed the move, which offered some relief after months of tension. The delay will give Chinese President Xi Jinping's policymakers more time to plan their next move. Time is Xi's ally. So far, the clearest outcome of each round of talks has been a commitment to meet again. Despite Trump's insistence that China has taken significant steps to improve their trade relationship, Beijing has made no consequential concessions on any of his key concerns. (China has offered some small compromises, none on the scale of American demands.) The extension has come at a delicate time for China's economy, which is plagued by sluggish domestic demand and a slowdown in the property sector. Bloomberg Economics says that it is among the few major nations without a clear timeline or terms for a deal, while others have struck agreements to secure lower tariffs. Even with this reprieve, it notes, Beijing faces average US tariffs of 40 per cent — almost 25 percentage points above the global average. Loading This will hurt prospects for Chinese citizens, who have enjoyed more than three decades of near double-digit growth. The economy expanded by 5.2 per cent in April-June from a year earlier — enviable by global standards — but anxieties among the once-thriving middle class over the future for their children are rising. Youth unemployment remains stubbornly high, with joblessness at 14.5 per cent in June. That figure improved in recent months, but analysts point to significant challenges: More than 12 million university students are set to graduate with hopes of joining the workforce. Still, China is betting that despite these economic costs, it can fight this trade war to the end. Politically, Beijing is preparing the population for a long battle. State media editorials have lauded a Mao-era philosophy as a possible strategy to counter US pressure. They reference the former Chinese leader's 1938 essay ' On Protracted War ', which laid out his approach to combating the invading Japanese between 1937 and 1945. During a series of lectures in May and June 1938, Mao spoke of how the 'contest of strength is not only a contest of military and economic power, but also a contest of human power and morale'. Scholars say the idea was to alert his fellow citizens that the war would be long and gruelling, but could be won through endurance and unity.
