Tesla’s (NASDAQ:TSLA) stock has had a massive run since Trump’s Presidential win, with Elon Musk at his side as one of his biggest supporters. The Tesla stock surge of over 30% since the win was also fueled on expectations that Trump will advance a legislative framework for autonomous vehicles,
In the third quarter, Tesla produced approximately 470,000 vehicles, delivered approximately 463,000 vehicles and deployed 6.9 GWh of energy storage products.
Tesla says on its website, “In 2012, the first Model S rolled off the assembly line at our factory in Fremont, California. Today, we have the capacity to manufacture more than a million vehicles every year, in addition to energy products, battery cells and more.” Tesla also has Gigafactories in Nevada, New York and Texas.
With investors seeing EV’s being a loser under Trump, a recent article in Forbes notes,
“Here’s something else to think about: if Trump does reduce or eliminate incentives, Tesla will be the main winner. Its cost base and vehicle platforms allow it to sell EVs profitably, which might not be the case with other American and global OEMs, who will struggle to match EV and ICE vehicle pricing.”
Last month, General Motors (NYSE: GM) reported third-quarter 2024 revenue of $48.8 billion, net income attributable to stockholders of $3.1 billion, and EBIT-adjusted of $4.1 billion.
GM's 2024 financial guidance includes anticipated capital spending of $10.5 billion - $11.5 billion, inclusive of investments in the company's battery cell manufacturing joint ventures.

From the news: DSS is the law enforcement and security arm of the U.S. Department of State.
GM Defense's HD SUV solution, the Suburban Shield, features a new design with a unique body-on-frame chassis and suspension to support increased vehicle weight and performance requirements. The vehicle includes a high percentage of proven commercial-off-the-shelf parts from General Motors' global supply chain, including the body, exterior, propulsion, interior, and brakes, for added reliability.
"Our Suburban Shield significantly enhances the quality, performance, and safety that is essential to the Diplomatic Security Service and provides our nation's senior diplomats and their supporting teams a vehicle that enables their important mission for diplomacy and national security," said Steve duMont, GM Defense president.
According to CustomMarketInsights.com, “The US Automotive Market was valued at USD 4.8 Billion in 2024 and is expected to reach USD 13.8 Billion by 2033, at a CAGR of 10.6% during the forecast period 2024 – 2033.
“The automotive industry includes the design, development, manufacture, marketing, and sale of automobiles, trucks, buses, and motorbikes. It involves a complicated network of businesses, including automakers, suppliers, dealerships, and aftermarket service providers.”
Trump’s policies are going to reshape the future of the automotive industry and suppliers like Worksport Ltd. (NASDAQ: WKSP) are betting that their US-based manufacturing and innovation will be on the winning end.

In the November 4th production update they reported, “In October, Riot achieved a new post-halving milestone in production, with 505 Bitcoin mined in the month,” said Jason Les, CEO of Riot. “This 23% increase in production from September is a reflection of both the ongoing growth in our deployed hash rate and of the efforts to improve our operational efficiency.”
