Good odds BYD beat Ford this year (waiting on Fords numbers, takes a while when you can't even bring new EVs to your home market I guess).

📮 Everyone talks about lithium. Yet graphite, without which lithium-ion batteries simply wouldn’t work, is quietly becoming a major bottleneck.
In my latest article, I expose why graphite represents a critical risk for the energy transition and what it all means.👇🏻

US government's policy toward the Big 3 automakers—encouraging them to invest in massive, US-only SUVs & trucks, now encouraging them to underinvest in EVs—has reinforced their global irrelevance.
Ford sold 33% fewer vehicles worldwide in 2024 than 2015! GM sold 40% fewer vehicles!

China is world's largest auto exporting nation. Now it is set to double by 2030.
Edward White:
"Forecasts now suggest China's auto exports are set to nearly double from 2024 levels by 2030 while legacy ICE demand will collapse to levels not seen since 2005."
