☆ UAW Strike Pinches Automakers and Suppliers, but Spares Consumers—for Now
  + stars: | 2023-10-23 | by ( Sean Mclain | Ryan Felton | ) www.wsj.com   time to read: 1 min
UAW union members have been striking over job security and pay as automakers push forward in developing EV’s, which require fewer workers and cost more in raw materials. So what does that mean for the future of auto workers and the union? Illustration: George Downs/The Wall Street JournalSix weeks into United Auto Workers’ strike, the impacts of the work stoppages are rippling through the car business, causing pain for the automakers themselves, as well as parts makers and factory workers. One corner of the industry that has been largely spared: dealerships and consumers, due in part to an inventory buildup of both cars and parts before the strikes.

Photo Illustration: George DownsPARIS—SpaceX has signed a deal to launch up to four of Europe’s flagship navigation satellites into orbit, reinforcing the Elon Musk-led company’s growing foothold in the region as local rivals struggle to get rockets off the ground. SpaceX and the European Space Agency recently signed an agreement for two launches next year, each carrying two Galileo satellites, said Javier Benedicto, the agency’s director of navigation. The European Commission, the European Union’s executive arm, along with EU member states, must still give final approval for the deal.

UAW union members have been striking over job security and pay as automakers push forward in developing EV’s, which require fewer workers and cost more in raw materials. So what does that mean for the future of auto workers and the union? Illustration: George Downs/The Wall Street JournalThe United Auto Workers on Monday expanded its continuing strike against Detroit’s car companies by shutting down a pickup-truck plant, a surprise action that hit Chrysler-parent Stellantis ’s largest U.S. factory. The 6,800-worker plant, located in Sterling Heights, Mich., in suburban Detroit, makes the Ram 1500 pickup truck, among the automaker’s most profitable vehicles. The walkout brings the total number of UAW-represented on strike at the Detroit automakers, including Ford Motor and General Motors , to more than 40,000, the UAW said.

So what does that mean for the future of auto workers and the union? Illustration: George Downs/The Wall Street JournalAfter years of growing at breakneck speed, Tesla seems to be slowing down. This is sensible, but investors haven’t bestowed a $867 billion market value on the company because they like common sense. And he bemoaned the impact of higher interest rates on vehicle affordability, which implies that Tesla is struggling to shift inventories despite this year’s price cuts.

Illustration: George Downs/The Wall Street JournalEven before the raise they are striking for, Detroit’s unionized auto workers are probably the best paid in the world after factoring in benefits such as healthcare.

[1/2] A BNY Mellon sign is seen on their headquarters in New York's financial district, January 19, 2011. A lawyer for BNY Mellon also declined to comment. They have long said their contracts shielded them from liability for RMBS losses, and that particularly sophisticated investors should have known the risks. In its December 2015 complaint, Commerzbank accused BNY Mellon of sitting "idly" as losses piled up, rather than force lenders to buy back and servicers to address troubled loans. The case is Commerzbank AG v. The Bank of New York Mellon et al, U.S. District Court, Southern District of New York, No.
