Taken together, the changes represent a fundamental shift for the auto industry: higher costs, more hands-on work in chip development and more capital commitment in exchange for better visibility in their chip supplies, executives and analysts say.
Earnings for S&P 500 companies now are expected to have increased 7.1% in the quarter versus an estimated 5.6% at the start of July, according to IBES data from Refinitiv. Of the 279 S&P 500 companies that have reported earnings so far, 77.8% have exceeded expectations.
Most S&P 500 sectors ended higher, with energy rising 4.5%, the most of any S&P sector.
Chevron Corp rose 8.9% and Exxon Mobil shares jumped 4.6% after the companies reported record quarterly revenues.
"In today's market, the Amazon and Apple numbers are giving the market support (on) the idea that two large companies that are a large part of the S&P seem so far to be able to navigate through these tougher times," said Rick Meckler, partner at Cherry Lane Investments, a family investment office in New Vernon, New Jersey.
Apple Inc shares gained 3.3% after the company said parts shortages were easing and that demand for iPhones was continuing. Amazon.com Inc shot up 10.4% after it forecast a jump in third-quarter revenue from bigger fees from its Prime loyalty subscriptions.
NEW YORK, July 29 (Reuters) - U.S.
stocks added to their recent rally on Friday after upbeat forecasts from Apple and Amazon.com, and the S&P 500 and Nasdaq posted their biggest monthly percentage gains since 2020.
Aug 5 (Reuters) - Amazon.com Inc will acquire iRobot Corp, maker of the robotic vacuum cleaner Roomba, in an all-cash deal for about $1.7 billion in the latest push by the world's largest online retailer to expand its stable of smart home devices.
Amazon's devices unit only makes up a fraction of company revenue, but the e-commerce giant has steadily expanded its lineup with more speakers showcasing its Alexa voice assistant and with home security doorbells and cameras from Ring, which it acquired in 2018.
Tesla and SpaceX employees also could become 'a little bit rattled and angry' because of Musk's anti-Democratic party comments as technology company staff in California tend to be more liberal, said Jason Stomel, founder of tech talent agency Cadre.
SkyWater Technology Inc, a chip manufacturer in Minnesota, is talking to automakers about putting "skin in the game" by buying equipment or paying for research and development, Chief Executive Thomas Sonderman told Reuters.
The costly changes are coming together just as the auto industry appears to be moving past the worst of an even more costly crisis that by one estimate has cut 13 million vehicles from global production since the start of 2021.
But on Thursday, a government report showed the American economy unexpectedly contracted in the second quarter, suggesting to some investors that the economy was on the cusp of a recession. They said it might deter the Fed from continuing to aggressively increase rates as it battles high inflation.
Its second-quarter revenue fell 30% on weak demand from retailers in North America and Europe, Middle East and Africa. iRobot's fortunes took a hit as consumers started rethinking their purchases amid rising inflation.
Securing - and keeping - chip engineers will be a challenge for automakers, which will have to compete against the likes of Alphabet Inc's Google, Amazon.com Inc and Apple Inc, said Evangelos Simoudis, a Silicon Valley venture capital investor and adviser who works with both established automakers and startups.
"I would say there is a three out of four chance of a deep investigation and a one out of four chance of a challenge," he said. "The political appointees have made clear that they would rather go to court and lose than let a deal through that later is criticized as anti-competitive."
Among the information it collects, one consumer found website were records of everything he searched on Amazon, as well as more than 1,000 contacts from his phone and which part of the Quran he listened to.
Musk said it was a 'scam' and based on prejudice against him. Last month the S&P 500 ESG Index, a listing of companies that meet certain environmental, social and governance standards, kicked Tesla out of its listings, citing allegations of racial discrimination and poor working conditions at its factories.
He has earned the benefit of the doubt as he is often playing chess when the rest of us are playing checkers,' Northwestern University professor Erik Qualman said. 'Is Elon Musk now crazy, or crazy like a fox?
I will cancel my Tesla order,' said J Yeh, a Twitter user who describes herself as a lawyer who has lived in several cities including Los Angeles. 'In the past, I admired him for working to build a green business that's transformational in energy use. But he is sadly becoming divisive as an attention seeking troll and I no longer trust that he is dedicated to the quality of his products.
