The whole point is to screw other countries, that is what hegemony is.

There is nothing we can do. We export more to the US than we import, and he is abusing it.

Now all the ‘make America great again’ rhetoric makes perfect sense.

Mag7 are finished for now, great. All this ceo sucking up to him before the inauguration, hahaha karma.

The future is now defensive alike construction, real estate, pharma, staples etc.

He knows exactly what he is doing....

Devalue dollar, kill off trade deficit, secure US hegemony for years to come.

China would have overtaken the US in 10 years if he hadn't.

Bold move, and first mover advantage, now we wait to see the reaction form the rest of the world.

T-bills/cash for a few weeks, let things settle & hit bottom, then invest in defensives. Short dollar if you're feeling spritely.

Everyone will pile into T-bills, so the rate will reduce, bringing down interest rates with it.

Live stock: "Company expects volumes to be broadly in line with the prior year period "

Do you remember how awful Q1 results were last year?

And now AML are saying Q1 is broadly in line, which means just under.

"While Lawrence Stroll controls 27.67% of the voting rights, it would appear based on the footnote that he only directly owns 1.87% of the shares."

Been saying this for years, Stroll owns very few shares, but lots of voting rights. What idiot let him away with that? Does he just bully people into it?

There are going to bed a lot of angry people when the shizzle hits the fan here.

It's not the AML share price that's in trouble, it's the company.

The only reason AML sold close to 7000 cars (old models) in recent times was free covid money.

Since then:

-Europe has hit the skids, and is now in serious trouble due to high tariffs and very little manufacturing.

-UK is in deep trouble too, for the same reasons, and even higher tariffs.

-China has slowed generally, but car sale growth has been stellar because of cheap & well built EVs which will decimate western traditional car manufacturers in the medium term.

-US sales will be under serious pressure now too for AML, for a couple of years at least. It will take a while of recessions/stagflation before things level out again and American companies (and therefore US citizens) reap the rewards.

Hence why Buffet was so prescient with his selling and huge cash position.

To all AML holders, aim your anger at Stroll, he is the one who has taken all your cash. He has got richer while you haemorrhage cash. That's what billionaires do, they extract wealth from others.

How much of a loss will AML make only selling 5000 cars?

They will be burning through a whole lot more cash than they ever did.

It won't be long until this is taken private.

Chortle!

Bottom line is, fewer people can afford nice things when the stock market is tanking and a recession is looming.

Tariffs create a race to the bottom, which we have only just started.

All other goods excluding autos.

All non-US autos are 25%. AML are srewed.

That 125m they just raised will be gone in no time.

And if stroll owns all the bonds he is the sole creditor.

So he can do whatever he wants. And he will.

I flagged that up years ago. He is/was Stroll's Swiss neighbour.

Picccioto has a serious number of shares, I'd guess more than Stroll, between them they have the voting rights sewn up.

Thor, tell us how any of the other shareholders are going to stop Stroll taking this private at any price he wants?

He IS the creditor, holding all the bonds, imho.

Yewtree own 33% and should be made to conduct a share offer for the rest of the company but are asking for a waiver not to. Why?

They know they will get it cheaper than today's price, otherwise they would have bought the entire company today.

Beware of paid posters and rampers.

FT saying AML are guessing a £30m hit to earnings due to US tariffs. I'll guess nearer 50m, hence Yewtree's injection of c.50m

Not many people mentioning the fact AML lowered 2025 targets again today, from mid single digit growth to 'modest growth'.

Stroll is open to taking it private, hah. He bleeds shareholders dry, drowns them in dilution and uses them for cash raise after cash raise, then snaps up another chunk of the company for peanuts. Diluting holders yet again.

Selling the family silver (assets) to stay afloat in the meantime, there won't be many assets left

Yewtree now have c.£600m invested, which is similar to the market cap, funny that eh? Yewtree will own 33% of the company, so shows you how terribly that investment went, worth a third of what they invested. I wonder how Toto, PIF, Geely, Merc feel.

They obviously told Larry to take care of cash injections on his own from now on, none of the 'partners' have taken part in the last 2 cash injections.

Like I said all along, shareholders abused and hung out to dry.

Vote at the AGM.

What are your predictions for cash burn and how much cash they have left?

Anyone hearing rumours of a cash raise coming?

Q1 results are still 4.5 weeks away.

Cosworth make the engine, wrong again Thor.

Merc make the V8s.

AML engines were killed dead by Moers.
