'Honda And Nissan Set To Begin Merger Talks As Early As Next Week' - Nikkei Asia

Honda Motor Company, Ltd. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HMC#NYSE">HMC</a>) shares are moving lower on Wednesday. The company clarified in a filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) that media reports regarding discussions of business integrations with other vehicle manufacturers are <a href="https://www.benzinga.com//node/42548952">not based</a> on an official company announcement.
The Details: Several media reports have suggested that Honda has been in discussions about a potential merger with Nissan Motor Co., Ltd. and Mitsubishi Motors Corporation over the past week. Honda&#8217;s recent filing confirms that these reports are not based on a company announcement.
In its filing, Honda did reference its announcements from March and August of this year, which discussed the company, Nissan and Mitsubishi combining their strengths and exploring various possibilities for future collaboration.
In the August filing, the company announced that it signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with Nissan and Mitsubishi. The MOU builds on the March agreement between Nissan and Honda, with Mitsubishi joining the collaboration. 
The partnership will focus on advancing intelligence and electrification of automobiles, with Mitsubishi adding new strengths and synergies in areas such as environmental technologies, electrification and software development. In addition, the collaboration aims to accelerate initiatives for carbon neutrality and a zero-traffic-accident society.

Honda Says Media Reports That Company, Nissan And Mitsubishi Motors Will Begin Discussions Of Business Integration Are Not Based On Company Announcement

Nissan Motor Co. (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NSANY#OTC">NSANY</a>)&nbsp; shares surged 22.54% in Tokyo on Wednesday <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/global/24/12/42541842/japanese-auto-giants-nissan-honda-eye-merger-says-nikkei">after the reports of merger talks</a> with Honda Motor Co.

Nissan Stock Soar Over 20% On Merger Talks With Honda, Mitsubishi Spikes

Japanese automakers Nissan Motor Co Ltd (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NSANY#OTC">NSANY</a>) and Honda Motor Co Ltd (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HMC#NYSE">HMC</a>) are reportedly negotiating a merger, <a href="https://asia.nikkei.com/Business/Automobiles/Honda-and-Nissan-to-begin-merger-talks-amid-EV-competition">first revealed by the Nikkei newspaper Tuesday</a>, aiming to consolidate under a holding company and include Mitsubishi Motors.
What To Know: Per Nikkei, the combined Nissan-Honda-Mitsubishi group could account for over eight million annual vehicle sales, positioning it among the largest automakers but trailing Toyota Motor's <a href="https://www.statista.com/statistics/267274/worldwide-vehicle-sales-of-toyota-since-2007/">11.2 million</a> and Volkswagen's <a href="https://www.statista.com/statistics/272049/worldwide-vehicle-sales-of-volkswagen-since-2006/">9.2 million</a>.
Per a report by <a href="https://www.cnbc.com/2024/12/17/japans-honda-and-nissan-to-reportedly-begin-merger-talks.html">CNBC</a>, Nissan and Honda earlier declined to confirm the report, stating they are exploring collaborative opportunities without final decisions. Earlier this year, the firms partnered on shared components and software, potentially paving the way for integration.
The merger talks come as Nissan grapples with ongoing challenges, including weak profitability and recovering from a tumultuous period marked by the fallout from former Chairman Carlos Ghosn's ouster in 2018. 
The company has also been under pressure to expand its electric vehicle offerings to compete with Tesla and Chinese rivals.
The response was positive, with Honda's U.S.-traded shares rising 0.96% to $25.26 and Nissan's over-the-counter shares jumping 11.46% to $5.11 at market close on Tuesday.

'Honda and Nissan to begin merger talks amid EV competition' - Nikkei

Honda Motor Co. plans to stop funding its joint project with General Motors Co. to develop autonomous vehicles, after GM pulled the pin on its Cruise robotaxi business.&nbsp;
<a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2024-12-11/honda-to-cut-funding-to-self-driving-taxi-partnership-with-gm?srnd=homepage-uk" title="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2024-12-11/honda-to-cut-funding-to-self-driving-taxi-partnership-with-gm?srnd=homepage-uk">https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2024-12-11/honda-to-cut-funding-to-self-driving-taxi-partnership-with-gm?srnd=homepage-uk</a> &nbsp;

Reported Earlier: 'Honda to Cut Funding to Self-Driving Taxi Partnership With GM' - Bloomberg

South Korean electric vehicle (EV) manufacturers are reconsidering a substantial $54 billion investment in U.S. battery plants due to potential policy changes under President-elect&nbsp;Donald Trump. Concerns have arisen over the possibility of Trump eliminating tax credits for EVs, which could significantly affect demand and profitability.
What Happened: Some of Tesla&#8217;s South Korean rivals have already paused construction on certain projects, as sources familiar with the situation reported. Posco Future M, a supplier for General Motors Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GM#NYSE">GM</a>) has delayed the completion of its Quebec plant, citing &#8220;local conditions,&#8221; Bloomberg <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2024-12-08/trump-ev-skepticism-threatens-54-billion-in-korean-investments">reported</a> on Monday. 
Kenny Kim, CEO of SNE Research, highlighted that Korean companies are anxious about potential cuts to government incentives. Trump has criticized the Inflation Reduction Act, which supports EVs, and his administration may reduce fuel-efficiency requirements and eliminate a $7,500 consumer-tax credit, according to a&nbsp;Reuters&nbsp;report.

South Korea&#8217;s major battery makers, including&nbsp;Samsung SDI,&nbsp;LG Energy Solution, and&nbsp;SK On Co., have announced 15 U.S. battery plants, creating over 20,000 jobs. However, potential policy changes could threaten these investments and the U.S. EV supply chain&#8217;s shift away from China. Korean firms are in talks with U.S. authorities to maintain tax credits, crucial for their operations amid declining EV demand and battery prices.
Why It Matters: The potential policy shifts under Trump&#8217;s administration have broader implications beyond South Korean investments. The joint venture between&nbsp;Sony Group Corp&nbsp;(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SONY#NYSE">SONY</a>) and&nbsp;Honda Motor Co Ltd.&nbsp;(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HMC#NYSE">HMC</a>) is <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/12/42307375/sony-and-hondas-joint-ev-venture-faces-headwinds-ahead-of-us-launch-in-2026-amid-trump-backed-policy-shifts">also facing challenges </a>due to anticipated changes in U.S. auto policy. The elimination of the $7,500 EV tax credit could reduce electric vehicle sales by nearly 30%, according to the National Bureau of Economic Research.
Furthermore, Trump&#8217;s plans to impose tariffs have already raised concerns in other regions. Mexico expressed <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/global/24/11/42188994/amid-trumps-plans-to-impose-25-tariffs-mexico-fears-byd-new-factory-in-country-would-send-wrong-message-investments-from-china-have-to-be-analyzed-with-extreme-caution">apprehension over hosting</a> a Chinese EV factory by&nbsp;BYD&nbsp;due to Trump&#8217;s proposed 25% tariff on Mexican goods. These developments highlight the potential ripple effects of Trump&#8217;s policies on global EV investments and trade relations.

Trump's Tariff Threat Causes Tesla's South Korean Rivals To Rethink $54B Battery Plant Investment

Live On CNBC, Jenny Harrington Announces Bought Honda Motor Company

Sony Group Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SONY#NYSE">SONY</a>) and Honda Motor Co Ltd.&#8216;s (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HMC#NYSE">HMC</a>) joint electric vehicle venture faces significant headwinds as it prepares to enter the U.S. market in 2026, amid expected policy changes under President-elect Donald Trump that could reshape the EV landscape.
What Happened: The partnership, Sony Honda Mobility, will unveil its production-ready Afeela sedan prototype at CES 2025 in Las Vegas next month. While the vehicle&#8217;s hardware is largely complete, developers are fine-tuning the software-centric features that distinguish it from competitors, according to SHM President Izumi Kawanishi, Nikkei <a href="https://asia.nikkei.com/Business/Technology/Tech-Asia/Sony-and-Honda-prepare-for-tough-U.S.-EV-debut-under-Trump">reported</a> on Wednesday.
The timing of Afeela&#8217;s launch coincides with potentially major shifts in U.S. auto policy. Trump&#8217;s anticipated elimination of the current $7,500 EV tax credit could reduce electric vehicle sales by nearly 30%, according to the National Bureau of Economic Research. 
This policy shift has already influenced market dynamics, with Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) shares rallying following Trump&#8217;s election victory.

What Happened: The changing landscape has divided industry analysts. Roth MKM analyst Craig Irwin recently raised Tesla&#8217;s price target by 347% to $380, suggesting established players <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/12/42285783/tesla-bear-craig-irwin-turns-bullish-increases-price-target-from-85-to-380">might benefit from reduced subsidies</a>. However, newcomers like SHM could face additional challenges beyond the subsidy cuts, including potential tariff increases.
Despite these hurdles, SHM is betting on its unique value proposition. The Afeela features 45 cameras and sensors, an entertainment-focused cabin design, and software that can be updated like a smartphone. The company aims to differentiate itself through Sony&#8217;s entertainment and sensor expertise combined with Honda&#8217;s automotive manufacturing capabilities.
&#8220;All businesses have ups and downs,&#8221; Kawanishi noted, emphasizing the venture&#8217;s long-term vision. Industry experts suggest annual sales of 30,000 to 40,000 units would be considered successful for the new entrant in a market dominated by Tesla, which controls approximately half of U.S. EV sales.
EV-focused exchange-traded funds, including Invesco Electric Vehicle Metals Commodity Strategy No K-1 ETF (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/EVMT#NASDAQ">EVMT</a>), Amplify Lithium &amp; Battery Technology ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BATT#NYSE">BATT</a>), KraneShares Electric Vehicles and Future Mobility Index ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/KARS#NYSE">KARS</a>), and Global X Lithium &amp; Battery Tech ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LIT#NYSE">LIT</a>), have all been trading in the red since Trump&#8217;s election victory on Nov. 6.

Sony-Honda EV Dream Collides With Trump-Backed Policy Shift Reality Ahead Of 2026 US Launch

The trade relationship between the U.S. and Mexico, America's top trading partner in 2023, entered a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/econ-s">new phase of tension.</a>
President-elect Donald Trump's recent pledge to impose 25% tariffs on all imports from Mexico and Canada, as soon as he returns to the Oval Office in January, has sent ripples through currency markets and put significant downward pressure on both the Mexican peso (MXN) <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/economics/macro-economic-events/24/11/42202496/goldman-sachs-expects-major-selloffs-in-canadian-dollar-mexican-peso-says-trump-tariffs-threaten-usmca-agreement">and Canadian dollar (CAD). </a>
The Mexican currency weakened to levels last seen in August 2022, with the USD/MXN exchange rate eyeing the sixth week of gains in the last seven in response to escalating trade concerns. 
Market jitters were amplified by Mexico's potential retaliatory measures, which could disrupt the deeply interconnected economies of both nations.
The risk of a U.S.–Mexico trade war could jeopardize nearly $800 billion in annual trade flows. 
<h1 class="wp-block-heading">Mexican Peso Takes a Hit</h1>
According to Alejandro Cuadrado, BBVA&#8217;s chief strategist, the peso was particularly vulnerable on Tuesday, with USD/MXN breaking through key resistance at 20.60 and testing 20.80, a level last seen after the 2020 U.S. presidential election. 
Cuadrado highlighted the sell-off reflects the uncertainty surrounding U.S. trade policy and Mexico's potential retaliation, with risks of further depreciation looming.
"The break of USD/MXN 20.60 has opened the room towards the 21 handle," Cuadrado said, adding that investors are now awaiting more policy clarity. 
He warned that the MXN could face significant headwinds in the short term, especially if U.S. tariff threats materialize.
&#8220;Tuesday's sell-off was also a reminder that risks can awaken suddenly and rapidly given the uncertainty, erratic communication, lack of definition and overall style of policymaking,&#8221; Cuadrado added.
<h1 class="wp-block-heading">Trade War Threat Looms About $800 Billion In Bilateral Trade</h1>
Mexico surpassed China to become the U.S&#8217;s largest trading partner in 2023, underscoring the critical importance of the relationship.
According to official U.S. Census Bureau data, total goods and services traded between the U.S. and Mexico reached $798 billion last year.
This figure reflects the deep integration of their economies under the United States–Mexico–Canada Agreement (USMCA), which replaced NAFTA in 2020.
Here's a breakdown of 2023 U.S.–Mexico trade:
<ul>
<li>U.S. Exports to Mexico: $322 billion
<ul>
<li>Mexico is a key buyer of U.S.-produced goods, including motor vehicle parts, semiconductors, basic chemicals, petroleum products and agricultural commodities.</li>
<li>In energy, Mexico is the largest importer of U.S. natural gas and petroleum products.</li>
<li>U.S. goods exports to Mexico have grown exponentially from $42 billion in 1993 (pre-NAFTA) to $322 billion in 2023.</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>U.S. Imports from Mexico: $477 billion
<ul>
<li>Nearly 80% of Mexico's total exports are destined for the U.S..</li>
<li>Top categories include automobiles ($130 billion), electronic equipment ($85.6 billion), and machinery and reactors ($81 billion). </li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>U.S. Trade Deficit with Mexico: $152.5 billion
<ul>
<li>The 2023 trade deficit with Mexico is nearly three times larger than a decade ago, reflecting the country's growing role as a manufacturing hub for U.S.-bound goods.</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
<h1 class="wp-block-heading">Automotive Industry At The Center Of Trade Tensions</h1>
The U.S. auto sector is particularly vulnerable to trade disruptions with Mexico. Of the $477 billion in U.S. imports from Mexico in 2023, vehicles accounted for $130 billion — by far the largest single category.
Automakers such as General Motors Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GM#NYSE">GM</a>), Ford Motor Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/F#NYSE">F</a>), Stellantis N.V. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/STLA#NYSE">STLA</a>), Volkswagen AG (OTCPK: VLKAF), Toyota Motor Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TM#NYSE">TM</a>), and Honda Motor Co. Ltd. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HMC#NYSE">HMC</a>) have long relied on Mexican factories for their affordability and proximity to U.S. markets.
Components for cars, such as engines, transmissions and interior electronics, often cross the U.S.-Mexico border multiple times before final assembly.
Additionally, the Wall Street Journal <a href="https://www.wsj.com/business/autos/mexico-gets-cold-feet-over-new-chinese-ev-plant-after-trump-win-3b92f1c3">published</a> on Tuesday that Chinese electric vehicle manufacturer BYD — a major rival of Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) — is in the final stages of planning a factory in Mexico — a move that could further heighten trade tensions between the two neighbors.
The Wall Street Journal also reported Mexican officials are concerned a BYD factory could send the wrong signal to Trump and his trade-focused allies, potentially implying Mexico aims to serve as a backdoor for Chinese companies to access the U.S. market.

US–Mexico Trade Tensions Escalate As Mexican Peso Hits August 2022 Lows: Why Is Auto Industry Most At Risk?

The most oversold stocks in the consumer discretionary sector presents an opportunity to buy into undervalued companies.
The RSI is a momentum indicator, which compares a stock&#8217;s strength on days when prices go up to its strength on days when prices go down. When compared to a stock&#8217;s price action, it can give traders a better sense of how a stock may perform in the short term. An asset is typically considered oversold when the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/rsi">RSI is below 30</a>, according to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/">Benzinga Pro</a>.

Although we had a strong collective performance across our key growth areas, including Sephora, home decor, gifting, and impulse, and also benefited from the opening of Babies "R" Us shops in 200 of our stores, these were unable to offset the declines in our core business."

Top 3 Consumer Stocks That Are Set To Fly In Q4

Tesla Inc&#8216;s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) dominance in electric vehicle (EV) <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/electric-vehicles">charging is in question</a>. 
While automakers like General Motors Co (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GM#NYSE">GM</a>) and Mercedes-Benz Group AG (OTCPK: MBGAF) have adopted Tesla's North American Charging Standard (NACS), the need for a diversified network was clear.
The two companies joined five other companies — Bayerische Motoren Werke AG (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BMYY#OTC">BMYY</a>) aka BMW, Honda Motor Co Ltd (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HMC#NYSE">HMC</a>), Hyundai Motor Co, Kia, and Stellantis NV (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/STLA#NYSE">STLA</a>) — to launch Ionna, an independent charging network designed to provide reliable alternatives to Tesla's Supercharger network.
Ionna&#8217;s first site is in Apex, North Carolina. The initiative features retro-futuristic designs, driver lounges, WiFi, food, and even pet-friendly amenities.

Existing networks, such as Electrify America, have faced reliability issues, and iONNA gives these automakers greater control over their charging infrastructure while competing directly with Tesla's gold-standard Supercharger system.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">NEVI Cuts Add To Uncertainty</h2>
Potential funding cuts to the $5 billion National Electric Vehicle Infrastructure (NEVI) program could further complicate the EV charging landscape. 
Bill Peterson, a JPMorgan analyst, warns that a Trump-led administration might redirect unallocated NEVI funds, particularly the $1.7 billion yet to be distributed, to other initiatives or tax cuts. This would hinder government-backed EV charging projects, leaving the market increasingly dependent on private efforts like Ionna.
For Tesla, these developments represent both risks and opportunities. As automakers solidify their independence with Ionna, Tesla's competitive edge may narrow.
However, reduced government funding could also weaken competitors relying heavily on public support, reinforcing Tesla's position as the backbone of the U.S. EV charging network.
With political uncertainty and industry competition mounting, Tesla's charging supremacy faces an unprecedented test.

Meme cryptocurrency Dogecoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/doge/usd">DOGE</a>) is soaring in price and valuation, up more than 80% in the past week and <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/24/11/41876486/dogecoin-explodes-for-86-weekly-gain-what-is-going-on">setting new 52-week highs.</a>

While <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/dogecoin-doge-price-prediction">Dogecoin </a>trails Bitcoin in value at $47.7 billion to $1.72 trillion based on current market capitalizations, the accomplishments of increasing that much in value are no laughing matter.
With its current market capitalization of $47.7 billion at the time of writing, Dogecoin would rank as the 428th largest company in the world, according to<a href="https://companiesmarketcap.com/page/5/"> companiesmarketcap.com.</a>
Here is a look at some well-known companies that are worth less than Dogecoin is Monday:

What's Next: The cryptocurrency sector has been enjoying a surge in valuation and interest since the 2024 election with Dogecoin far from the only cryptocurrency trading higher.
Bitcoin hit several new all-time highs on Monday and is currently trading over $87,000.
Dogecoin hit a one-year high of $0.3278 on Monday and currently trades at $0.3251. While the cryptocurrency is up over 100% in the last seven days, Dogecoin trades below its all-time high which was previously set back in May 2021.
Dogecoin's current all-time high stands at $0.7376, a level reached on the same day Elon Musk appeared on an episode of "Saturday Night Live" and gave the meme crypto several shout-outs.
Musk's call to be in charge of the Department of Government Efficiency, or D.O.G.E. under President-elect Donald Trump has increased attention on Dogecoin.

The Week Kamala Harris Lost (Nov 4-8), These Large Cap Stocks Lost Big

Honda Motor Co's (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HMC#NYSE">HMC</a>) short percent of float has fallen 22.22% since its last report. The company recently reported that it has 1.05 million shares sold short, which is 0.07% of all regular shares that are available for trading. Based on its trading volume, it would take traders 1.78 days to cover their short positions on average.
<h3>Why Short Interest Matters</h3>
Short interest is the number of shares that have been sold short but have not yet been covered or closed out. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-short-a-stock/">Short selling</a> is when a trader sells shares of a company they do not own, with the hope that the price will fall. Traders make money from short selling if the price of the stock falls and they lose if it rises.
Short interest is important to track because it can act as an indicator of market sentiment towards a particular stock. An increase in short interest can signal that investors have become more bearish, while a decrease in short interest can signal they have become more bullish.

<h3>Honda Motor Co Short Interest Graph (3 Months)</h3>
<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2024/1731355215_0.png" alt="short_fig" />
As you can see from the chart above the percentage of shares that are sold short for Honda Motor Co has declined since its last report. This does not mean that the stock is going to rise in the near-term but traders should be aware that less shares are being shorted.
<h3>Comparing Honda Motor Co's Short Interest Against Its Peers</h3>
Peer comparison is a popular technique amongst analysts and investors for gauging how well a company is performing. A company's peer is another company that has similar characteristics to it, such as industry, size, age, and financial structure. You can find a company's peer group by reading its 10-K, proxy filing, or by doing your own similarity analysis.
According to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/">Benzinga Pro</a>, Honda Motor Co's peer group average for short interest as a percentage of float is 9.41%, which means the company has less short interest than most of its peers.
Did you know that increasing short interest can actually be bullish for a stock? <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-make-money-on-a-short-squeeze/">This post by Benzinga Money explains how you can profit from it.</a>

수요일(18일) 도쿄에서 닛산 자동차(OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NSANY#OTC">NSANY</a>) 주가는 혼다 자동차(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HMC#NYSE">HMC</a>)와 <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/global/24/12/42541842/japanese-auto-giants-nissan-honda-eye-merger-says-nikkei">합병 논의가 보도된 후</a> 22.54% 급등했다. 반면에 혼다의 주가는 2% 하락하고 있다.
보도에 따르면 두 자동차 제조업체는 닛산이 24% 지분을 보유한 미쓰비시 자동차(OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MMTOF#OTC">MMTOF</a>) 포함해 지주사 구조 하에서 합병을 모색하고 있으며, 곧 양해각서가 체결될 것으로 예상된다. 미쓰비시 자동차 주가는 이 글을 쓰는 시점에 도쿄에서 13% 이상 상승한 채 거래되고 있다.
합병이 완료되면 닛산-혼다-미쓰비시 통합 그룹은 연간 판매량이 800만 대를 넘어 세계 최대 자동차 제조업체 중 하나가 될 수 있다. 하지만 2023년에는 1,120만 대를 판매한 토요타 자동차(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TM#NYSE">TM</a>), 920만 대를 판매한 독일의 폭스바겐 AG에는 미치지 못할 것으로 보인다.
올해 들어 닛산 주가는 28.3% 하락한 412엔(2.68달러)에 거래되고 있으며, 혼다 주가는 15.7% 하락한 1,270엔(8.27달러)에 거래되고 있다. 한편, 미쓰비시 자동차 주가는 올해 1.49% 상승한 463엔(3.01달러)에 거래 중이다.

일본 자동차 제조업체 닛산 자동차(OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NSANY#OTC">NSANY</a>)와 혼다 자동차(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HMC#NYSE">HMC</a>)가 합병 협상을 진행 중이라는 소식이 전해졌다. 이는 <a href="https://asia.nikkei.com/Business/Automobiles/Honda-and-Nissan-to-begin-merger-talks-amid-EV-competition" target="_blank" rel="noopener">화요일 닛케이 신문에 의해 처음 공개</a>되었으며, 두 회사가 지주사 아래 통합하고 미쓰비시 자동차도 포함할 것으로 알려졌다.
알아야 할 내용: 닛케이에 따르면 닛산-혼다-미쓰비시 통합 그룹의 연간 자동차 판매량은 800만 대 이상으로 <a href="https://www.statista.com/statistics/267274/worldwide-vehicle-sales-of-toyota-since-2007/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">최대 자동차 제조사 중 한 곳</a>이 될 수 있지만, 토요타 자동차의 1,120만 대와 폭스바겐의 920만 대에는 미치지 못할 것으로 보인다.
<a href="//www.cnbc.com/2024/12/17/japans-honda-and-nissan-to-reportedly-begin-merger-talks.html"" target="_blank" rel="noopener">CNBC</a> 보도에 따르면 닛산과 혼다는 앞서 최종 결정 없이 협력 기회를 모색 중이라며 해당 보도에 대한 확인을 거부했다. 올해 초 두 회사는 부품 및 소프트웨어 공유를 위해 협력하여 잠재적으로 통합을 위한 기반을 마련했다.
이번 합병 논의는 닛산이 수익성 약화, 2018년 카를로스 곤(Carlos Ghosn) 전 회장의 축출로 인한 격동의 시기에서 회복하는 등 지속적인 도전과 씨름하고 있는 가운데 나온 것이다.
또한 테슬라 및 중국 경쟁업체들과 경쟁하기 위해 전기 자동차 제품을 확대해야 한다는 압박을 받고 있다.
화요일 장 마감 시점에 혼다의 미국 거래 주가는 0.96% 상승한 25.26달러, 닛산의 장외 주가는 11.46% 상승한 5.11달러로 상승하는 등 긍정적인 반응을 보였다.

소니 그룹(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SONY#NYSE">SONY</a>)과 혼다 자동차(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HMC#NYSE">HMC</a>)의 합작 전기차 벤처는 2026년 미국 시장 진출을 준비하면서 도널드 트럼프 대통령 당선인의 정책 변화로 인해 전기차 업계의 판도가 바뀔 것으로 예상되는 가운데 상당한 역풍에 직면해 있다.
무슨 일 있었나: 두 기업의 파트너십인 소니 혼다 모빌리티(Sony Honda Mobility: SHM)는 다음 달 라스베이거스에서 열리는 CES 2025에서 생산 준비가 완료된 아필라(Afeela) 세단 프로토타입을 공개할 예정이다. 수요일 닛케이 <a href="https://asia.nikkei.com/Business/Technology/Tech-Asia/Sony-and-Honda-prepare-for-tough-U.S.-EV-debut-under-Trump" target="_blank" rel="noopener">보도</a>에 따르면, 이즈미 카와니시 SHM 사장은 차량의 하드웨어는 거의 완성되었지만 개발자들은 경쟁사와 차별화되는 소프트웨어 중심 기능을 미세 조정하고 있다고 말했다.
아필라의 출시 시기는 미국 자동차 정책의 잠재적인 주요 변화와 일치한다. 전미경제연구소(NBER)에 따르면 트럼프 대통령이 현행 7,500달러의 전기차 세금 공제를 폐지할 경우 전기차 판매량이 30% 가까이 감소할 것으로 예상된다.
이러한 정책 변화는 이미 시장 역학 관계에 영향을 미쳤으며, 테슬라(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>)의 주가는 트럼프의 대선 승리 이후 상승세를 보이고 있다.
왜 중요한가: 변화하는 환경은 업계 애널리스트들을 분열시켰다. 로스 MKM의 애널리스트 크레이그 어윈은 최근 테슬라의 목표주가를 380달러로 347% 올리며 기존 업체들이 <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/12/42285783/tesla-bear-craig-irwin-turns-bullish-increases-price-target-from-85-to-380" target="_blank" rel="noopener">보조금 감소로 혜택을 볼 수</a> 있다고 전망했다. 그러나 SHM과 같은 신생 업체는 보조금 삭감 외에도 잠재적인 관세 인상 등 추가적인 어려움에 직면할 수 있다.
이러한 장애물에도 불구하고 SHM은 독특한 가치 제안에 베팅하고 있다. 아필라는 45개의 카메라와 센서, 엔터테인먼트에 초점을 맞춘 실내 디자인, 스마트폰처럼 업데이트할 수 있는 소프트웨어가 특징이다. 소니의 엔터테인먼트 및 센서 전문성과 혼다의 자동차 제조 역량을 결합하여 차별화를 꾀하고 있다.
가와니시는 "모든 사업에는 기복이 있다&#8221;며 벤처의 장기적인 비전을 강조했다. 업계 전문가들은 미국 전기차 판매의 약 절반을 점유하고 있는 테슬라가 지배하는 시장에서 새로운 진입자가 성공하기는 쉽지 않고, 신규 진입자가 연간 3만~4만 대의 판매량을 달성하면 성공으로 간주할 수 있다고 말한다.
전기차에 집중된 상장지수펀드(ETF), 예를 들어 Invesco Electric Vehicle Metals Commodity Strategy No K-1 ETF(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/EVMT#NASDAQ">EVMT</a>), Amplify Lithium &amp; Battery Technology ETF(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BATT#NYSE">BATT</a>), KraneShares Electric Vehicles and Future Mobility Index ETF(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/KARS#NYSE">KARS</a>) 그리고 Global X Lithium &amp; Battery Tech ETF(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LIT#NYSE">LIT</a>)는 트럼프의 대선 승리 이후 모두 하락세를 보이고 있다.

밈 암호화폐인 도지코인(CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/doge/usd">DOGE</a>)은 지난 한 주 동안 80% 이상 상승하며 <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/24/11/41876486/dogecoin-explodes-for-86-weekly-gain-what-is-going-on" target="_blank" rel="noopener">52주 신고가를 경신</a>하는 등 가격과 가치가 급등하고 있다.
최근의 가치 상승으로 도지코인은 일부 유명 글로벌 기업의 가치를 넘어섰다.
무슨 일이 일어났을까?: 도지코인은 2013년 잭슨 팔머와 빌리 마커스가 비트코인(CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>)을 조롱하기 위한 <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/23/11/36030223/if-you-invested-1-000-in-dogecoin-when-the-meme-coin-launched-heres-how-much-youd-have-now" target="_blank" rel="noopener">풍자적 코인</a>으로 만들었다.
현재 시가총액 기준으로 <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/dogecoin-doge-price-prediction" target="_blank" rel="noopener">도지코인의 가치</a>는 477억 달러에서 1조 7,200억 달러로 비트코인을 뒤쫓고 있지만, 그 정도의 가치 상승은 결코 웃어넘길 수 있는 일이 아니다.
도지코인의 현재 시가총액 477억 달러는 <a href="https://companiesmarketcap.com/page/5/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">companiesmarketcap.com</a>에 따르면 전 세계에서 428째로 큰 규모다.
다음은 월요일 기준으로 도지코인보다 시가총액이 낮은 회사들이다.

지금까지 도지코인보다 가치가 낮은 15개 기업을 소개했다. 몇 년 전만 해도 장난으로 만든 암호화폐가 포드나 아디다스 같은 회사보다 더 큰 기업이 될 것이라고는 상상도 못했지만, 이제는 현실이 되었다.

다음 단계는?: 암호화폐 부문은 2024년 선거 이후 가치와 관심이 급증하고 있으며, 도지코인은 유일하게 상승한 암호화폐가 아니다.
비트코인은 월요일에 사상 최고치를 경신했으며 현재 88,000달러 이상에서 거래되고 있다.
도지코인은 월요일에 0.3278달러로 1년 만에 최고치를 기록했으며 현재 0.3251달러에 거래되고 있다. 지난 7일 동안 암호화폐가 100% 이상 상승했지만, 도지코인은 2021년 5월에 세운 사상 최고가보다 낮은 가격에 거래되는 중이다.
도지코인의 현재 사상 최고가는 0.7376달러로, 이는 일론 머스크가 &#8216;새터데이 나이트 라이브&#8217; 에피소드에 출연해 밈 암호화폐에 대해 여러 차례 언급했던 당일에 도달한 수준이다.
한편 머스크가 도널드 트럼프 대통령 당선인의 정부효율성부(D.O.G.E.)를 맡게 되면서 도지코인에 대한 관심이 높아졌다.

카멀라 해리스 대선 패배 주간(11월 4~8일) 대폭 하락한 대형주 10종목

토요타 자동차(OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TOYOF#OTC">TOYOF</a>), 마쓰다 자동차(OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MZDAY#OTC">MZDAY</a>), 혼다(OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HNDAF#OTC">HNDAF</a>), 스즈키 자동차(OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SZKMY#OTC">SZKMY</a>) 등 일본 주요 자동차 제조사의 주가가 안전 스캔들로 인해 큰 타격을 입었다.
사건의 전말 (What Happened): 일요일 CNBC에 <a href="https://www.cnbc.com/2024/06/10/shares-of-toyota-mazda-honda-suzuki-fall-after-safety-scandal.html">따르면</a> 일본 국토교통성은 특정 차량 모델들을 인증하는 데 허위 데이터가 사용된 사실을 파악했으며, 이로 인해 해당 자동차 제조업체들의 주가가 크게 하락했다.
일본 최대 자동차 제조업체인 토요타는 지난주 주가가 5.4% 이상 급락해 2조 4,500억 엔(156억 2,000만 달러)의 시장 가치 손실을 입었다. 일본에서 두 번째로 큰 자동차 제조업체인 마쓰다는 주가가 7.7% 하락하여 시가총액 803억 3천만 엔(5억 1,180만 달러)의 손실을 입었다.
혼다, 스즈키 및 야마하 등 다른 자동차 제조사들도 허위 테스트 데이터를 제출하거나 충돌 테스트에 사용된 차량을 변조한 것으로 드러났다. 이로 인해 주가도 하락했다.
지난주 토요타는 국토교통성의 조사에 따라 일본에서 생산된 코롤라 필더, 코롤라 악시오, 야리스 크로스 등 3개 모델의 출하 및 판매를 일시적으로 중단한다고 발표했다.
토요타의 도요다 아키오 회장은 이러한 불일치에 대해 사과하며 7개 모델이 국가 당국이 정의한 표준과 다른 방법을 사용하여 테스트되었음을 ​​인정했다.
마찬가지로 마쓰다는 5월 30일부터 로드스터(Roadster) RF와 마쓰다 2를 중단했다. 두 회사 모두 고객에게 여전히 자동차를 운전할 수 있다고 확신했다.
왜 중요한가 (Why It Matters): 최근의 이 스캔들은 일본 자동차 제조업체들에 대한 광범위한 조사에 뒤이어 발생했다. 지난주 국토교통성은 토요타의 인증신청서에서 부정행위가 발견되자 본사를 대상으로 현장조사를 실시했다. 이는 토요타 다이하츠(Toyota Daihatsu) 사업부와 관련된 <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/06/39154549/gear-shift-in-japan-toyota-other-auto-giants-reportedly-under-inspection-over-certification-scan">안전 테스트</a> 스캔들로 인해 업계 전반에 걸쳐 의무적으로 실시되는 종합 검사의 일부였다.
또한, 금요일에는 미쓰비시 UFJ 파이낸셜 그룹(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MUFG#NYSE">MUFG</a>)과 미쓰이 스미토모 파이낸셜 그룹(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SMFG#NYSE">SMFG</a>)이 토요타의 전략적 지분 약 1조 3,200억 엔(85억 달러)을 매각할 <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/06/39228602/japanese-mega-banks-plan-8-5b-toyota-stake-sale-report">계획</a>이라는 보도가 나왔다. 이러한 움직임은 교차보유 주식을 해체하고 토요타 주가에 미치는 부정적 영향을 완화하기 위한 보다 광범위한 전략의 일부다. 은행들은 요타의 최근 1조엔 규모 환매 계획을 활용할 예정이다.
토요타 주식은 지난 12개월 동안 36% 이상 상승했다. 투자자들은 Avantis International Large Cap Value ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AVIV#NYSE">AVIV</a>) 및 ActivePassive International Equity ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/APIE#NYSE">APIE</a>)를 통해 주식에 노출될 수 있다.
