Global Epicenter of Mobility Launches Road to 2030 Initiative

Modules will expand insights into mobility technologies and sectors with greatest economic growth potential for the Detroit Region between now and 2030 DETROIT, June 9, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- The Global Epicenter of Mobility (GEM), a signature program of the Detroit Regional Partnership (DRP), has launched the Road to 2030 – a bold effort to identify forward-looking insights around the technologies and sectors that present the greatest opportunities for growth for our companies, communities, and residents through 2030. The Road to 2030 initiative expands on existing research and knowledge assets from GEM, including the Future Mobility Technology Study (FMTS), which outlines seven mobility technologies with the greatest economic growth potential for the Detroit Region through 2030. This latest initiative will offer deeper dives into those seven technologies and the economic opportunities they present within the region's anchor industry for economic growth and prosperity. The Detroit region's mobility non-profits, small and medium-sized manufacturers, start-ups, and our economic development partners can utilize this data, insights and analyses to help guide strategy development, expansion plans and investment decisions within the evolving mobility industry. Designed to harness the region's deep automotive expertise, this initiative identifies emerging opportunities in next-generation mobility technologies and catalyzes regional economic development strategies across the entire 11-county Detroit Region. "The FMTS leveraged GEM's unique capabilities and resources across metro Detroit's mobility industry to deliver clear pathways for those looking to enter or build upon their presence within the region's mobility sector," said Christine Roeder, executive vice president of GEM. "The Road to 2030 aims to take those efforts a step further by equipping business leaders with additional insights needed to make well-informed decisions about future investments within the industry." The technologies identified in the FMTS that will be covered in this initiative include: Assembly Automation Battery Chemistry and Design Electric Motors Hydrogen Fuel Cell Systems Power Electronics Propulsion Thermal Management Systems Software: Software-Defined Vehicles (SDV), Cybersecurity, and Over-the-Air (OTA) Solutions The web-based modules, housed in a dedicated area on the GEM website, will include both high-level and detailed analyses of each of the technologies, downloadable content, editorial perspectives on the impact of the technology to the Detroit Region, recent news articles, and more. Additionally, GEM and the DRP plan to host informative webinars with industry experts to share deeper insights on each technology. Hydrogen Fuel Cell Systems is the first technology GEM will focus on as part of the Road to 2030 initiative. Hydrogen Fuel Cells have a projected unit increase of more than 5,000% by 2030, growing from 529 units in 2024 to more than 32,000 units. They also have the potential to create nearly 12,000 jobs nationally and 1,700 jobs in Michigan over the next five years. "By offering this regular cadence of data and analysis to our regional stakeholders, we hope to help inform their short to mid-term business decisions," said Bernard Swiecki, vice president of mobility and research at the Detroit Regional Partnership. "We are turning our research into action to support the growth of the Detroit Region's most important industry as it continues to transition to new technologies over the remainder of this decade." GEM Central will release a new technology module regularly throughout 2025 and early 2026. These new releases will be followed by regular updates and content on additional technologies that present the Detroit Region with the greatest opportunities for job and investment growth.

Scottish Government urges Chancellor to drop cuts in spending review

Finance Secretary Shona Robison urged the UK Government to abandon some of its 'damaging policies' such as cuts to welfare support for disabled people, to scrap the two-child benefit cap and to reinstate a universal Winter Fuel Payment, ahead of the review on June 11. She said the Scottish Government had not yet been provided with 'clarity' on spending priorities. READ MORE: Man arrested after Glasgow city centre incident which saw several roads shut She asked the Chancellor to award funding for the Acorn carbon capture project and to ensure Scotland receives a share of GB Energy funding that matches its contribution to UK clean energy goals. Robison (above) said: 'The UK spending review is an opportunity for the UK Government to abandon some of its damaging policies such as cuts to welfare support for disabled people, to scrap the two-child benefit cap and to reinstate a universal winter fuel payment. 'We are also aware of the huge impact of the increase in employer's national insurance, not least on public services. I hope UK ministers will use the spending review to fully-fund the costs of this tax hike on jobs to vital public services like the NHS. READ MORE: 'Joy, celebration and warmth' of Palestinian art to be showcased at Edinburgh Fringe 'The UK Government should also use the spending review to empower the devolved administrations with more flexible fiscal rules that can enable investment in public services. 'We need an end to spending that bypasses devolution so we can direct funds to best meet local needs. 'We called on UK ministers to involve us at an early stage of this process, but since they've refused to provide us with any clarity on their spending priorities it's clear that its business as usual for Westminster. 'We continue to call on the Treasury to use the spending review to change course, providing the funding we need to deliver for the people of Scotland.'

Stock market today: S&P 500 closes at 6,000 as Tesla rebounds amid Trump-Musk feud cooldown

US stocks rallied on Friday, with the S&P 500 (^GSPC) breaching the 6,000 level following a moderate beat on the monthly jobs report and rising investor hopes of a cooldown in the acrimonious feud between President Trump and Elon Musk. The Dow Jones Industrial Average (^DJI) rose over 400 points, or 1.2%, while the S&P 500 (^GSPC) added about 1.1% to close at the 6,000 mark, its highest level since February. The tech-heavy Nasdaq Composite (^IXIC) also gained 1.3%. Tesla (TSLA) shares rebounded as CEO Musk and Trump moved to cool tensions. Musk backed off his threat to decommission the Dragon spacecraft used by NASA after Trump threatened his government contracts. However, the White House tamped down reports of a potential "peace call" between the two. Tesla shares partially recovered from a 14% wipeout in a broader stock slide on Thursday as mounting differences between the two powerful men erupted into the open. Musk called for the president's impeachment, while Trump threatened the contracts and breaks critical to Musk's business empire. The feud injected more unpredictability into an already uncertain market, just as weary investors had become cautiously optimistic that Trump tariffs could be reined in and the US economy might prove resilient. Read more: The latest on Trump's tariffs Meanwhile on Friday, the labor market showed more signs of resilience as Trump's tariffs continued to seep in to the economy. The US added 139,000 jobs in May, more than the 126,000 expected by economists as the hiring rate slowed and unemployment held flat at 4.2%. Following the May jobs beat, President Trump again criticized the Federal Reserve for being "too late" with its monetary policy. Trump urged the central bank to ease borrowing costs by reducing rates, writing in a social media post: "Go for a full point, Rocket Fuel!" A high-profile feud between President Donald Trump and billionaire Elon Musk reached a fever pitch on Thursday, triggering a $150 billion-plus wipeout in Tesla (TSLA) shares. The selloff came after Musk slammed Trump's GOP-backed spending bill, prompting fiery responses from the president and raising concerns over the political risk now tied to one of the world's most valuable companies. "This is a disaster of epic proportion for Tesla and SpaceX," Ross Gerber, CEO of Gerber Kawasaki Wealth & Investment Management CEO, told Yahoo Finance in reaction to the developments. "And whether Elon wants to accept it or not, he did help Trump get elected. It is his fault that Trump is president of the United States." Although shares rebounded on Friday, rising around 6% in mid-afternoon trading as Musk and Trump moved to cool tensions, Gerber warned, "I think we're just getting started for the declines because a lot of the stock price's value isn't based off the underlying business. It's based off the perception that Elon being a part of Tesla is somehow wonderful." The close relationship between Trump and Musk began to take a more active shape during last year's campaign trail. Musk endorsed the then-Republican candidate soon after the assassination attempt on Trump in Butler, Pennsylvania. Afterward, Musk frequently appeared at rallies, voicing his support for the Republican Party at large and pledging millions to America PAC, a Trump-aligned super PAC. Once Trump was elected, the president appointed Musk as head of the newly formed Department of Government Efficiency, otherwise known as DOGE. The purpose of the agency was to eliminate government waste. Musk officially exited the role late last month, revealing the agency had cut billions of dollars in costs. But just a few days later, Musk's tone shifted as he criticized Trump's controversial tax legislation, which is estimated to add trillions to the national debt over the next decade. It would also eliminate EV tax credits, a crucial government incentive for Tesla and a potential "death blow" to the company's sales, according to Gerber. Having cleared the House, the bill now heads to the Senate, with Trump vowing to sign it into law by July 4. Read more here and check out the timeline below documenting the week that was: The US labor market is cooling. The president keeps clamoring for the Federal Reserve to cut interest rates. But Wall Street still doesn't think it's happening anytime soon, with markets not pricing in a more than 50% chance of a Fed rate cut until the central bank's September meeting, per the CME FedWatch Tool. One reason why appeared in two different data releases over the past week. Wage growth remains resilient. The May jobs report showed average hourly earnings in May rose 0.4% over the last month and 3.9% over the prior year, higher than 0.2% monthly wage growth seen in April. Meanwhile data from ADP showed wages for workers in the private sector who changed jobs grew 7% while wages for those who stayed in the same job grew 4.5%. Both were unchanged from the month prior. As our Chart of the Week shows, in the past six months wage growth for job stayers has fallen just 0.2 percentage points while pay gains for job changers has actually increased by 0.2%. "The labor market isn't collapsing," Richardson said. "Wages are robust, but they're not triggering inflation. Hiring is slow, but it's not leading to outside layoffs. So in that sense, there's nothing in the labor market that points in any direction [for the Fed] strongly. In a note titled 'May-day? More like Pay-day!' Bank of America US economist Shruti Mishra remarked that solid wage income growth is 'supportive of consumption but will also likely keep the Fed in their inflation fighting stance.' Bitcoin (BTC-USD) surged back above $105,000 per token on Friday amid an overall market rally. The token rebounded on the heels of a better-than-expected jobs report and signs of a cooldown in the war of words between President Trump and Tesla (TSLA) CEO Elon Musk. Bitcoin rebounded after falling to around $101,000 on Thursday as a public feud unraveled. Meanwhile, Circle (CRCL) stock also surged more than 35% a day after the stablecoin issuer made its public debut. The stock's surge comes amid crypto's favorable treatment by the Trump administration and corporations. Lululemon (LULU) Lululemon stock fell more than 20% in midday trading on Friday after the activewear company warned profits would take a hit amid what it called a "dynamic macro-environment." Lululemon cut its full-year earnings per share outlook to a range of $14.58-$14.78 from $14.95-$15.15. Tesla (TSLA) Shares of the EV maker rebounded as much as 6% midday Friday as CEO Elon Musk and President Trump stopped posting insults at each other on social media, a sign of a deescalation of their public feud, which wiped out $150 billion in value from the EV maker during the prior session. DocuSign (DOCU) DocuSign shares sank 18% after the electronic signing software firm lowered its full-year billings guidance and announced a $1 billion share repurchase program. Broadcom (AVGO) shares slumped more than 3%, underperforming the broader chip market on Friday after the semiconductor giant's forecast failed to wow Wall Street. The company beat second quarter earnings estimates, but disappointed on outlook, despite a 46% revenue increase from last year. Meanwhile, the rest of the chip space gained on Friday as stocks rallied on the heels of a May jobs report which beat expectations, and signs of a cooldown in the feud between President Trump and Tesla CEO Elon Musk. Omada Health (OMDA) stock popped 36% to trade around $25 per share on Friday afternoon after making its debut on the public markets. The stock began trading on the Nasdaq around 11:45 a.m. ET at $23 per share. It was priced ahead of its IPO at $19 per share. Yahoo Finance's Anjalee Khemlani reports: Read more here. Anjalee spoke with Omada CEO Sean Duffy about what the IPO means for the company and its plans to become profitable. You can watch that interview here. Morgan Stanley analysts are still bullish on Tesla stock following the very public clash between the EV maker's CEO and President Trump. The firm is Overweight the stock, with a $410 price target, citing key areas of physical AI including "data, robotics, energy storage, compute, manufacturing and space/comms/networking/infrastructure", offering margin opportunities that greatly exceed those of the traditional EV business. Jonas and his team wrote "we believe the challenges facing Tesla's current business are widely reported and well known, while the opportunities in the future business are potentially greatly underestimated." On Friday the stock jumped as much as % after the public feud between Musk and Trump prompted a washout in the prior session, erasing more than $150 billion in value from the EV maker. Microsoft (MSFT) opened at a fresh record on Friday, surpassing AI chip giant Nvidia (NVDA) as the largest company in the world. The software giant gained nearly 1% in morning trading, hitting a new all-time high above $470. Its market cap stood at more than $3.5 trillion, more than Nvidia's $3.46 trillion valuation. Microsoft is up 12% year to date versus Nvidia's roughly 6% gain during the same period. The company has fully recovered from its early April lows following President Trump's unveiling of a reciprocal tariff policy and its subsequent rollback. Circle (CRCL) stock continues to climb. Shares of the stablecoin issuer rose 22% in early trade Friday, building on the meteoric 168% gains in its first day of trading that saw the stock halted multiple times for volatility. Its market debut comes as crypto has received favorable treatment by the Trump administration and corporations. Circle is currently trading at over $100 per share. It was priced at $31 ahead of its IPO. Yahoo Finance's Laura Bratton reports: Read more here. President Trump again urged the Federal Reserve to cut rates on Friday morning. In a social media post, the president criticized the central bank for being "too late," saying policymakers should go for a full point cut. Trump wrote: "'Too late' at the Fed is a disaster! Europe has had 10 rate cuts, we have had none. Despite him, our Country is doing great. Go for a full point, Rocket Fuel!" The president has repeatedly criticized the Federal Reserve and its chairman, Jerome Powell, for not cutting rates this year the way European policymakers have. The S&P 500 (^GSPC) briefly touched the 6,000 mark on Friday shortly after the market open, its highest level since February. Stocks have roared back roughly 20%, or more than 1,000 points, from their April lows after President Trump's "Liberation Day" tariff policy reveal. The president has since rolled back the broad-based reciprocal tariff plan he unveiled on April 2, announcing a 90-day pause on many countries, a framework deal with the UK, and a temporary trade truce with China. The broad-based index came close to touching the 6,000 level on Thursday after President Trump said he had a "very good phone call" with his Chinese counterpart, Xi Jinping, about trade. However, the S&P 500 retreated by the afternoon following a very public feud between Trump and Tesla (TSLA) CEO Elon Musk. By Friday morning, the war of words showed signs of cooling. However, a White House official told Reuters there was no planned phone call between Trump and Musk. US stocks opened higher with the S&P 500 eyeing the 6,000 level after the release of a moderate beat on the monthly jobs report and signs of a potential cooldown between President Trump and Elon Musk. The Dow Jones Industrial Average (^DJI) rallied more than 300 points, or 0.9%, while the S&P 500 (^GSPC) added about 1%. The tech-heavy Nasdaq Composite (^IXIC) also gained 1%. Tesla (TSLA) shares rose 6% amid signs of a cooldown between CEO Musk and President Trump after a very public clash on social media. The May jobs report came in better than expected, with unemployment holding steady at 4.2%. Yahoo Finance's Josh Schafer reports: Read more here.

The selloff came after Musk slammed Trump's GOP-backed spending bill, prompting fiery responses from the president and raising concerns over the political risk now tied to one of the world's most valuable companies. "This is a disaster of epic proportion for Tesla and SpaceX," Ross Gerber, CEO of Gerber Kawasaki Wealth & Investment Management CEO, told Yahoo Finance in reaction to the developments. "And whether Elon wants to accept it or not, he did help Trump get elected. It is his fault that Trump is president of the United States." Although shares rebounded on Friday, rising around 6% in mid-afternoon trading as Musk and Trump moved to cool tensions, Gerber warned, "I think we're just getting started for the declines because a lot of the stock price's value isn't based off the underlying business. It's based off the perception that Elon being a part of Tesla is somehow wonderful." The close relationship between Trump and Musk began to take a more active shape during last year's campaign trail. Musk endorsed the then-Republican candidate soon after the assassination attempt on Trump in Butler, Pennsylvania. Afterward, Musk frequently appeared at rallies, voicing his support for the Republican Party at large and pledging millions to America PAC, a Trump-aligned super PAC. Once Trump was elected, the president appointed Musk as head of the newly formed Department of Government Efficiency, otherwise known as DOGE. The purpose of the agency was to eliminate government waste. Musk officially exited the role late last month, revealing the agency had cut billions of dollars in costs. But just a few days later, Musk's tone shifted as he criticized Trump's controversial tax legislation, which is estimated to add trillions to the national debt over the next decade. It would also eliminate EV tax credits, a crucial government incentive for Tesla and a potential "death blow" to the company's sales, according to Gerber. Having cleared the House, the bill now heads to the Senate, with Trump vowing to sign it into law by July 4.

But Wall Street still doesn't think it's happening anytime soon, with markets not pricing in a more than 50% chance of a Fed rate cut until the central bank's September meeting, per the CME FedWatch Tool. One reason why appeared in two different data releases over the past week. Wage growth remains resilient. The May jobs report showed average hourly earnings in May rose 0.4% over the last month and 3.9% over the prior year, higher than 0.2% monthly wage growth seen in April. Meanwhile data from ADP showed wages for workers in the private sector who changed jobs grew 7% while wages for those who stayed in the same job grew 4.5%. Both were unchanged from the month prior. As our Chart of the Week shows, in the past six months wage growth for job stayers has fallen just 0.2 percentage points while pay gains for job changers has actually increased by 0.2%. "The labor market isn't collapsing," Richardson said. "Wages are robust, but they're not triggering inflation. Hiring is slow, but it's not leading to outside layoffs. So in that sense, there's nothing in the labor market that points in any direction [for the Fed] strongly. In a note titled 'May-day? More like Pay-day!' Bank of America US economist Shruti Mishra remarked that solid wage income growth is 'supportive of consumption but will also likely keep the Fed in their inflation fighting stance.'
