NEW YORK (AP) — The United Auto Workers said Saturday it had “reasonably productive conversations” with Ford, as its limited strike against the Big 3 automakers carried into a second day. Stellantis on Saturday also gave details about its most recent offer to the union, which brought its wage proposal roughly in line with its competitors. Now that number is zero, and Stellantis wants to keep playing games.”Nearly 1 in 10 of America’s unionized auto workers went on strike Friday. Automakers have since told some non-striking workers not to report to work, including 600 who were told not to report Friday to a Ford plant. Politicians have been pushing automakers to consider workers who gave up pay and benefits to help their employers during the Great Recession.

☆ Why Stellantis could face a longer strike than Ford or GM
▼ + stars: | 2023-09-15 | by ( John Rosevear | In Jrosevear | ) www.cnbc.com time to read: +2 min

The United Auto Workers labor union launched targeted strikes against the three Detroit automakers early Friday morning. It's the first time in history that the UAW has struck all three of the Detroit automakers at once. GM's Cadillac and Chevrolet brands had just 46 days' and 51 days' worth of vehicles, respectively; the Ford brand had 77 days' worth. Historically, the Detroit automakers have tended to have somewhat larger supplies on hand because their full-size pickups are offered in many different configurations. In contrast to the strike against Stellantis, the UAW's strike against Ford could be relatively brief.

"Let's be clear: No one wants a strike," Biden said, hours after UAW launched a targeted strike against all three Detroit automakers. Record profits, Biden said, should result in "record contracts" for workers. UAW is calling the campaign the "Stand Up Strike," an homage to the 1936-37 historic "Sit Down Strike" against General Motors in Flint, Michigan, that inaugurated the domestic auto workers labor union movement. The Big Three have offered the union about half of the pay increase UAW is seeking. "The auto workers are being sold down the river by their leadership, and their leadership should endorse Trump," the GOP's 2024 front-runner said in an interview set to run Sunday on "Meet the Press."

☆ What the UAW strike means for the big auto stocks, according to top analysts

"We think potential disruption from industrial action is likely to create buying opportunities in the D3 shares," the analyst said in a Friday note. "D3," or "the Detroit Three," refers to General Motors, Ford and Stellantis. It also marked the first time in history that the UAW launched strikes at all three of the big automakers simultaneously. Ford shares were flat. "Moving forward, we expect all three stocks to be sensitive to UAW newsflow especially as it relates to the potential duration of industrial action," Jonas said.

After weeks of negotiations with Ford, GM, and Stellantis, United Auto Workers are on strike. The labor union did not reach an agreement with the Detroit 3 before its deadline. Looming impactThe strike is sure to impact more than just the union workers and the Detroit 3 . Experts also suggest the additional costs Ford, GM, and Stellantis could incur as a result of the negotiations could trickle down to consumers, particularly through EV pricing. Historic momentThe last time the UAW and Detroit 3 companies negotiated a contract in 2019, union workers went on strike against GM for 40 days.

But not all of the 146,000 UAW members at company plants are walking picket lines, at least not yet. Top-scale assembly plant workers make about $32 per hour, plus large annual profit-sharing checks. The Ford plant that's on strike employs about 3,300 workers, and it makes Bronco SUVs and Ranger midsize pickup trucks. Under the UAW strategy, workers who go on strike would live on $500 per week in strike pay from the union, while others would stay on the job at full pay. It’s unlikely the companies would lock the remaining workers out of their factories because they want to keep building vehicles.

WASHINGTON — President Joe Biden said Friday that workers should be fairly compensated as auto companies make record profits, after the United Auto Workers union began a strike against General Motors, Ford Motor and Stellantis. "But I believe they should go further to ensure record corporate profits mean record contracts for the UAW." "Auto companies have seen record profits including the last few years because of the extraordinary skill and sacrifices of the UAW workers," Biden said. "Those record profits have not been shared fairly, in my view, with the workers." "We agree with Joe Biden when he says 'record profits mean record contracts,'" Fain said.

September 15 - During their most recent series against the Detroit Tigers in late July, the Los Angeles Angels announced they wouldn't trade Shohei Ohtani. The Angels were hoping they could make a playoff push and convince Ohtani to re-sign when he entered free agency this offseason. "(Wednesday) just wasn't the right day to go," manager Phil Nevin said before the Angels' 3-2 road loss to the Seattle Mariners. Griffin Canning (7-6, 4.34 ERA) will start the series opener for the Angels (68-79). The Tigers salvaged the finale of a three-game series against the visiting Cincinnati Reds with an 8-2 victory on Thursday afternoon.

UAW President Fain has taken an unorthodox approach to the negotiations, bargaining with all three Detroit automakers simultaneously.

Here’s what to watch as the clock ticks down:Which plants would go on strike? One advantage of a targeted strike for the union is the potential to save resources and extend a possible walkout. Striking union members are eligible for $500 a week from the union’s strike fund. Ford has not had a national strike since 1976 and has not had a strike of any kind at its US plants since 1978. Sometimes after talks break down, the parties can return to the table and reach a deal without a strike.

Sept 9 (Reuters) - American surfer Caroline Marks powered her way to her first world title on Saturday, while Brazil's Filipe Toledo went back-to-back to claim his second championship with a hard-fought win over surprise finalist Ethan Ewing from Australia. Toledo, however, showed once again his mastery of his adopted home break, combining his own searing turns with high-risk aerials to edge Ewing 2-0 and retain his title. Marks, already a five-year world tour veteran at 21, overcame Hawaii's five-time world champion and Olympic gold medallist Carissa Moore in the women's final. Everyone from Florida and from San Clemente has been supporting me, I just can't believe it," Marks said after her win. The win breaks the stranglehold that Moore, Wright and Australia's Steph Gilmore have had on the world title since 2007, and confirms Marks' place alongside Moore in the U.S. surfing team for the Paris Olympics in Tahiti next year.

This is because blast furnaces operate around the clock and need more workers. Goncalves is also betting that producing iron ore in-house for blast furnaces, rather than sourcing scrap steel for electric arc furnaces, will give Cliffs a competitive edge. While a few carmakers use aluminum for automotive bodies, most prefer high-grade steel from blast furnaces. Cliffs' devotion to blast furnaces, which are unionized unlike some electric arc furnaces, won it the support of United Steelworkers. The union's international president Thomas Conway said it's backing Cliffs' bid for U.S. Steel because of Goncalves' commitment to blast furnaces.

Missouri and Texas A&M were the first teams to join the SEC in 20 years. Financial benefits and concerns about conference stability lured Boston College to become the A.C.C.’s 12th member in 2005. Penn State, one of the last major programs to remain independent, became the Big Ten’s 11th member in 1993, setting off a wave of realignment across college football. The Missouri Valley Conference stopped sponsoring football after the 1985 season. Arkansas departed for the SEC in 1991, signaling the beginning of the end for the Southwest Conference, long associated with N.C.A.A.
