A little-known trucking company surges nearly 58% after Volkswagen makes a surprise offer to buy

Hardly a household name, truck manufacturer Navistar’s stock rose to sudden popularity Thursday, continuing into Friday’s pre-market trading. Shares surged as much as 57.7% Friday after Volkswagen’s trucking arm, Traton, made an unsolicited offer to buy the company for $US2.9 billion, or $US35 per share, Thursday. Volkswagen, which already owns a 16.76% stake in Navistar, said it would pay entirely in cash. The two companies are some of the biggest in the truck-making industry. But to make the acquisition, Volkswagen will have to get the blessing of activist investor Carl Icahn: The billionaire’s fund owns about 17% of Navistar’s outstanding stock, making Icahn Navistar’s single largest shareholder. The offer comes at a time when the broader trucking manufacturing industry is in a slump, with new orders in decline, The Wall Street Journal previously reported. In its most recent earnings, Navistar’s fourth quarter revenue declined versus the year prior. The stock started the year sliding downwards after it trailed…

Beyond Brexit: TV, film, music and theatre face a year of uncertainty

In this transition period, taking us until the end of December 2020, freedom of movement ie the movement of talent, personnel, artists etc can continue. Organisations like Creative Europe, founded by the union to encourage investment in the creative industries across the continent - its funding helped pay for the Oscar-winning film The King’s Speech - are still open for business for those seeking funding for their projects. There are plenty of big beasts in residence in the UK - Netflix, Disney, Warner Bros, Comcast (the new owner of Sky) - all strong enough to take any adverse movements in the value of the pound, the smaller independents may well be viewing their own future further down the line with a little more trepidation.

Big Fizzle: MoviePass Passes Away

And so it all ends in disappointment, like the umpteenth installment of a Stallone or Schwarzenegger franchise. For MoviePass and its parent company, filing Chapter 7 bankruptcy earlier this week means that what promised to disrupt an industry that has been around for more than a century – the movie business, of course – has itself been disrupted, and had been since the service was shut down in September. The filing means the companies will be sold, and the funds distributed to creditors. Those creditors include a list of more than 12,000 subscribers, and as the math works out, each of them may get about $100 in liquidation – if they get paid at all. The final shuttering comes after at least some subscribers complained that their cards were still being charged, even when the MoviePass service had gone dormant. Turns out the movie ticket subscription business has relatively low barriers to entry. MoviePass launched in 2011, was famed for its $10 monthly subscription service that allowed

Gallup: Credit Unions Feel The Love

The notion that credit unions (CUs) play country mouse to their more worldly banking cousins is beyond flawed, as a recent poll by the Gallup organization showed. Delving into customer sentiments across measures – including "helps me reach my financial goals" and "puts my financial well-being ahead of the interests of the bank" – Gallup found that credit unions are crushing it. Banks, not nearly as much. Banks did not surpass credit unions in any criterion used by Gallup. In fact, it wasn't even close. Though respondents had generally positive feelings about banks – for example, about financial institutions (FIs) being helpful during difficult life events – the focus on relationship-building and more personalized forms of finance have given credit unions the edge. For those who capitalize on it, the advantage will come in handy as FIs shapeshift their way to greater customer-centricity. How CUs sustain their unique brand of customer loyalty is among the core insights from the latest

Steel & Tube expecting large first half loss

One of the the country's largest steel manufacturers says adverse trading conditions will result in a large first half loss. Steel & Tube warned in November that its first half result would be less than last year's profit, but conditions were worse than expected, further impacting sales revenue and volumes. It was now forecasting a loss in underlying EBIT (earnings before interest and tax) of between $36 million and $37m in the six months to December, compared with a $9.8m underlying profit the year earlier. The result included non-cash charges of $37m related to a write-down in the company's goodwill, as well as $2m in restructuring costs and $2m in debt write-offs. The bottom line would be further affected by another $2m to $3m charge resulting from changes in tax accounting.

Consumers relatively upbeat in latest confidence index

Low interest rates and a stronger housing market are keeping consumers relatively buoyant. The ANZ-Roy Morgan Consumer Confidence Index was unchanged at 123 in January, sitting around its best level in more than a year. Consumers were slightly less optimistic about their current position but are slightly more upbeat about the longer term, and more think it's a good time to buy a big-ticket item. "New Zealand consumers are feeling pretty alright about things at the moment - the labour market remains tight, interest rates are low and the housing market is lifting again," ANZ's chief economist Sharon Zollner said. She said the lift in the housing market was likely behind the rise in those thinking its a good time to buy a major household item, which in turn would support the retail sector.

Coronavirus: NZ businesses exporting to China take a hit

New Zealand exporters are nervously waiting to see how big an impact the deadly coronavirus will have on their businesses. The disease is spreading across the globe and has killed at least 171 people and infected thousands. Restrictions in China on travel and public gatherings to try to contain the outbreak are putting the squeeze on New Zealand firms doing business in the country. New Zealand Rock Lobster Industry Council chief executive Mark Edwards said the live lobster export business had ceased after a huge drop in demand. He said the timing - during Chinese New Year, a peak period for demand and goods prices - was unfortunate.

To be fit for purpose, however, the taxonomy must address three important questions. Unfortunately, the EU’s one-dimensional approach disregards two of the three…
