<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Trump&#8217;s Tech Threat</h3>
A Trump victory could stall growth in the tech and EV sectors and slow the pace of AI advancements.

The German coalition collapse will <a href="https://europeancapitalinsights.substack.com/p/german-coalition-collapse-leaves?r=3nmatg">further stress Europe's largest economy</a>, one already mired with problems at home and abroad.
Chancellor Olaf Scholz fired Finance Minister Christian Lindner on Wednesday after <a href="https://abcnews.go.com/International/wireStory/germanys-economy-trouble-governments-collapse-trumps-return-bring-115611480" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">weeks of government disputes </a>about the ailing economy. Scholz now leads a minority government until fresh elections in January after the embattled leader rejected an earlier no-confidence vote.
The government collapse has left the European powerhouse rudderless during significant economic and geopolitical uncertainty. It could weaken Berlin's influence as <a href="https://open.substack.com/pub/europeancapitalinsights/p/europe-frets-about-recession-after?r=3nmatg&amp;utm_campaign=post&amp;utm_medium=web" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Europe navigates its relationship with the US</a> after Donald Trump won the elections.
The chancellor "did not want to take this step," Robin Quinville, Director of the Global Europe Program at the Washington-based Wilson Center, <a target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener" href="https://x.com/TheWilsonCenter/status/1854641225435165095">said</a>. "But he was pushed to it by the clear differences in approach between him and the finance minister."
<h4 class="wp-block-heading">Economic Differences Cause German Coalition Collapse</h4>
Scholz fired Lindner, a member of the Free Democrats (FDP) and coalition partner, for blocking his economic plans. Scholz's push for greater government investment to spur growth clashed with Lindner's prudent approach to fiscal spending.&nbsp;
<a target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener" href="https://edition.cnn.com/2024/11/07/europe/germany-government-collapse-explainer-intl/index.html">Scholz accused Lindner</a> of showing "no willingness to implement any of our proposals," adding that there was "no trust basis for any future cooperation." <a target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener" href="https://www.reuters.com/world/europe/german-coalition-collapses-what-comes-next-2024-11-06/">Linder accused Scholz of </a>pushing him to break his "oath of office" with "an ultimatum to suspend the constitutional debt brake."&nbsp;&nbsp;
After the coalition collapsed, the German 10-year yield climbed above the equivalent swap rate for the first time on record. In another sign of growing fiscal concerns, the 30-year yield jumped more than the two-year, lifting the spread toward the highest in more than two years, Bloomberg <a target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener" href="https://financialpost.com/pmn/business-pmn/fear-of-german-debt-binge-flips-key-market-gauge-for-first-time">reported</a>.&nbsp;
<figure class="wp-block-image is-resized"><a href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F81f0fafd-545b-4715-8903-0d8bfaab9dac_927x517.png" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"><img decoding="async" src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F81f0fafd-545b-4715-8903-0d8bfaab9dac_927x517.png" alt="" style="width:624px" /></a><figcaption class="wp-element-caption">Source: <a target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener" href="https://www.bnnbloomberg.ca/investing/2024/11/07/fear-of-german-debt-binge-flips-key-market-gauge-for-first-time/">Bloomberg</a></figcaption></figure>
"The way toward more debt will most likely become easier without a finance minister Lindner," Commerzbank AG strategist Hauke Siemssen wrote in a note.&nbsp;
However, a delay in next year's budget suggests a lack of spending and <a target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener" href="https://www.reuters.com/world/europe/how-german-coalition-wants-bolster-economic-growth-2024-07-05/">little likelihood of passing an economic plan</a> proposed in July that could add almost €26 billion to Germany's economic output.
<h4 class="wp-block-heading">German Coalition Were Unlikely Partners</h4>
Scholz's Social Democratic Party (SPD), the FDP, and the Greens had formed the coalition government. Analysts had considered the coalition an unlikely match given their different positions on fiscal policy.&nbsp;
The SPD and the Greens are <a target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener" href="https://edition.cnn.com/2024/11/07/europe/germany-government-collapse-explainer-intl/index.html">considered left-wing parties</a> that support greater government spending for social and environmental policies. The FDP is a business-focused party that advocates for a free market and a fiscally conservative approach.
Joerg Kukies, a Scholz ally, former Goldman Sachs investment banker, and now deputy finance minister, has been chosen to replace Linder as finance minister, Reuters <a target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener" href="https://www.reuters.com/world/europe/german-coalition-collapses-what-comes-next-2024-11-06/">reported</a>.&nbsp;
<figure class="wp-block-image is-resized"><a href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fc79340da-322f-479b-9920-2e76fcdea96b_986x736.png" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"><img decoding="async" src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fc79340da-322f-479b-9920-2e76fcdea96b_986x736.png" alt="" style="width:auto;height:450px" /></a></figure>
"Months of acrimonious infighting and an ever-shrinking consensus among the three unlikely partners contributed to a gloomy outlook for Germany's economy," the Washington-based Atlantic Council <a target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener" href="https://www.atlanticcouncil.org/blogs/new-atlanticist/experts-react/experts-react-scholzs-coalition-has-collapsed-whats-next-for-germany/">wrote</a>.
"Any concerted government effort to address structural economic challenges to Germany's economy and thereby revive Europe's once much-envied engine of growth repeatedly failed amid competing proposals, leaks, and public recriminations."
<h4 class="wp-block-heading">German Coalition Collapse Weighs on Sentiment</h4>
In addition to political infighting, <a target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener" href="https://europeancapitalinsights.substack.com/p/europe-frets-about-recession-after">Germany's economy </a>has failed to grow amid high energy prices and slow growth in China. The latest economic data will weigh on economic sentiment.&nbsp;
The Federal Statistical Office (Destatis) reported on Thursday <a target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener" href="https://www.destatis.de/EN/Press/2024/11/PE24_418_421.html">that industrial production dropped 2.5% in September </a>compared with August. Automobile production declined by 7.8%&nbsp;month-on-month compared with an increase of 15.4% in August, Destatis data showed.&nbsp;
<figure class="wp-block-image is-resized"><a href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fce4ea6e7-5fdf-47b6-a78f-a0719a7963f0_1146x543.png" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"><img decoding="async" src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fce4ea6e7-5fdf-47b6-a78f-a0719a7963f0_1146x543.png" alt="" style="width:624px" /></a><figcaption class="wp-element-caption">Source: <a target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener" href="https://www.destatis.de/EN/Press/2024/11/PE24_418_421.html">Destatis</a></figcaption></figure>
"This larger-than-expected fall erased most of the gains registered in August and reflects a renewed bout of weakness for the country&#8217;s manufacturing base," Oxford Economics <a target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener" href="https://www.intellinews.com/germany-s-industry-back-to-contraction-in-september-352141/?source=czech-republic">said</a> in a note. "The industrial turnaround is not there yet, as demand remains soft and structural challenges acute."
Germany's September exports declined 1.7% on a calendar and seasonally adjusted basis compared with August, Destatis <a target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener" href="https://www.destatis.de/SiteGlobals/Forms/Suche/Presse/EN/Pressesuche_Formular.html">reported</a> on Thursday. Exports decreased by an annual 0.2%, while imports rose 1.3% compared with September 2023.
<h4 class="wp-block-heading">Scholz Faces Uncertain Future After German Coalition Collapse</h4>
Scholz has called for a confidence motion in his government for January 15, Reuters <a target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener" href="https://www.reuters.com/world/europe/german-coalition-collapses-what-comes-next-2024-11-06/">reported</a>. The opposition can only push him out earlier if they can find a majority for a specific alternative chancellor.
German President Frank-Walter Steinmeier said he would <a target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener" href="https://www.reuters.com/world/europe/german-coalition-collapses-what-comes-next-2024-11-06/">not make use of his power</a> to block Scholz&#8217;s push for early elections. But there is no certainty that Scholz will be able to maintain power when the election is held.&nbsp;
The country is divided politically. The far-right Alternative für Deutschland (AfD) and the communist BSW<a target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener" href="https://www.atlanticcouncil.org/blogs/new-atlanticist/experts-react/experts-react-scholzs-coalition-has-collapsed-whats-next-for-germany/"> have emerged as "political insurgents</a>."&nbsp;
The coalition "is falling apart while the polls look like this: AfD ahead of all government parties," Isabella M. Weber, an author and economics professor at the University of Massachusetts, said on <a target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener" href="https://x.com/IsabellaMWeber/status/1854249863384318089">X</a>.&nbsp;
<figure class="wp-block-image is-resized"><a href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F3123edad-83dc-483e-917b-f1f11b29c4b0_1317x787.png" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"><img decoding="async" src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F3123edad-83dc-483e-917b-f1f11b29c4b0_1317x787.png" alt="" style="width:624px" /></a><figcaption class="wp-element-caption">Source: Isabella Weber, <a target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener" href="https://x.com/IsabellaMWeber/status/1854249863384318089">X</a></figcaption></figure>
The Wilson Center's Quinville said Scholz's SPD faces an "uphill battle" with polls currently showing them at about 16%. "They don&#8217;t have a great track record from the elections in Eastern Germany earlier this year," she said.&nbsp;
This could ultimately weaken Berlin's role in Europe. "Whenever you have a strong player that is then consumed by domestic politics, it leads to a weakening of that voice within the EU," Quinville said. "And that is what will happen as this plays out."

Sony Group Corp&#8217;s (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SONY#NYSE">SONY</a>) leadership discussed the abrupt closure of Concord, a live-service shooter launched just this August and pulled only 11 days later due to<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/gaming"> low sales. </a>
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">An Eye-Opening Setback For Sony's Live Service Ambitions</h3>
Speaking during a a recent earnings call (<a href="https://www.gamesindustry.biz/sony-on-concords-failure-with-new-ip-you-dont-know-the-result-until-you-actually-try-it">via</a> GamesIndustry.biz), Sony's president, COO, and CFO Hiroki Totoki acknowledged that Sony is still navigating the complexities of live-service games—a sector where it remains relatively inexperienced. Totoki noted that internal reviews have already highlighted key areas for improvement.
See Also: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/09/40711249/sony-pulls-plug-on-concord-multiplayer-shooter-game-goes-offline-soon-after-launch">Sony Pulls Plug On Concord: Multiplayer Shooter Game Goes Offline Soon After Launch</a>
"With regards to new IP, of course, you don't know the result until you actually try it," Totoki explained through an interpreter. "We probably need to have a lot of gates, including user testing or internal evaluation, and the timing of such gates. And then we need to bring them forward, and we should have done those gates much earlier than we did."
The approach to Concord, a new IP managed by Firewalk Studios, is a case in point. Totoki pointed out that Sony&#8217;s organizational structure, which he described as "siloed," complicated collaboration across development and sales. Breaking down these barriers, he suggested, could enable smoother game rollouts and stronger sales alignment.
The platform holder has also recognized the importance of timing in live-service game launches. Totoki pointed out that selecting the optimal release window is critical — not only for a title&#8217;s success but also for preventing "cannibalization" across Sony&#8217;s portfolio.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Aftermath: Refunds, Studio Closure, And Corporate Lessons</h3>
Following Concord&#8217;s short-lived journey, Sony offered players full refunds and announced the closure of Firewalk Studios. 
Sadahiko Hayakawa, Sony's senior vice president for finance and investor relations, contrasted Concord&#8217;s trajectory with the company's other live-service launch this year, Helldivers 2, which he described as "a huge hit." 
According to Hayakawa, both launches provided invaluable insights into managing live-service games and highlighted the need for Sony to fine-tune its development strategies.
"We intend to share the lessons learned from our successes and failures across our studios, including in the areas of title development management as well as the process of continually adding expanded content and scaling the service after its release so as to strengthen our development management system," Hayakawa stated.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Forging Ahead With A Balanced Portfolio Of Live And Single-Player Games</h3>
Despite Concord&#8217;s challenges, Sony remains committed to expanding its live-service lineup. In 2023, the company set an ambitious goal to launch six live-service titles by the end of March 2026. 
To balance its portfolio, Sony plans to leverage its strength in single-player games—often more predictable hits due to established IPs—alongside live-service ventures that may involve greater risk but promise lucrative returns if successful.
Hayakawa said that Sony aims to develop "an optimum title portfolio during the current mid-range plan period that combines single-player games — which are our strengths and which have a higher predictability of becoming hits due to our proven IP — with live-service games that pursue upside while taking on a certain amount of risk upon release."

Following Donald Trump&#8216;s election victory, stocks of companies focused on reshoring production to the U.S. surged sharply this week, driven by expectations of <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/donald-trump">more protectionist policies.</a>
The American Reshoring ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RSHO#NYSE">RSHO</a>)—a fund investing in 30 companies committing to reshoring their production lines back home—jumped over 8% in the week, outpacing broader market indices. The SPDR S&amp;P 500 ETF Trust (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SPY#NYSE">SPY</a>) was up 5% and on par with the iShares Russell 2000 ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/IWM#NYSE">IWM</a>).
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Why Expert Sees A Reshoring Boom Ahead</h3>
Trump&#8217;s win has reignited investor optimism around reshoring, with policies likely to push U.S. companies to prioritize domestic production over cheaper overseas options.
"The case for reshoring is now well set with the Trump presidency," said Maurits Pots, CEO of Tema ETFs, in an exclusive Benzinga interview.
The new administration is expected to support trade protectionism and tariff increases, a strategy Maurits emphasized as a "key driver of reshoring and domestic manufacturing growth." 
"Companies used to think about what was my lowest cost of production," Pots said. "Now they're asking, ‘where can I get more secure, closer-to-home production?' Security in supply chains is increasingly outpacing cost in importance," he added. 
This shift towards U.S.-centered manufacturing appears to reflect market anticipation that the administration will implement policies with a "primarily U.S. focus," especially after the potential of a red sweep.
Heavy equipment manufacturers, often seen as bellwethers for industrial sentiment, were among the big winners this week. Caterpillar (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CAT#NYSE">CAT</a>) rose more than 8% post-election, signaling investors' heightened interest in U.S. industrial stocks.
Maurits highlighted a similar trend with equipment companies, such as Terex Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TEX#NYSE">TEX</a>) .
He noted that these stocks "had very strong moves recently, indicating that expectations of a reacceleration in American capex will be a focus point for the administration."

<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Trade Policies: Tariffs, Subsidies, And The Mexico &#8216;Nearshoring&#8217; Risk</h3>
"We believe tariffs may ultimately prove less harsh than threatened," said Pots, "but the mere uncertainty around tariffs will itself already form a catalyst for reshoring as companies increasingly value supply chain security and stability."
According to Pot, the Trump administration's stance could also discourage "nearshoring" — the trend of moving production closer to the U.S., but not quite on its soil, such as to Mexico. 
With Trump's proposed tariffs on Mexican goods, Mexico's appeal as a manufacturing hub may diminish, further driving interest in truly domestic production.
Interestingly, Pot highlighted that most of the reshoring incentives introduced during the Biden administration, including substantial investment packages like the CHIPS Act, have been concentrated in Republican-led states. 
This aspect of the fund distribution could protect these initiatives from potential rollback under Trump, as they align with his administration's agenda of strengthening U.S. manufacturing.
