The Secret Service relies on Boston Dynamics $HYUD (-3.85%)

Boston Dynamics Robohound was spotted patrolling US President-elect Donald Trump's luxury resort club Mar-a-Lago in Palm Beach, Florida.

Spot, a remote-controlled four-legged robot, was seen in a video ambling around the lawn in front of the property with the US Secret Service logo stenciled on its torso and the words "DO NOT STRIKE" on its legs.

According to reports, the Secret Service confirmed that the robot dog is part of the agency, stating that "protecting the president-elect is our top priority. The robotic dogs are equipped with surveillance technology and an array of advanced sensors that support our protective measures"

At a height of 84 centimeters and weighing 25 kilograms, Spot can move at a speed of 5.76 kilometers per hour. Equipped with various cameras and sensors that allow it to move freely at night, the robot has already been deployed by many police agencies in the United States.

Will the Hyundai Motor Group $HYUD (-3.85%) even benefit from Donald Trump in the end ?!?

Hyundai Motor Group has significantly expanded its production capacity in the United States with the recent start-up of its meta plant in Georgia. This strategic move, which began in October, has increased the Group's production capacity in the US to approximately 1 million units per year. This development enables Hyundai Motor and its subsidiary Kia to potentially mitigate the impact of the universal tariff proposed by US President-elect Donald Trump and benefit from favorable economic policies.

Industry insiders suspect that some of Trump's measures could benefit Hyundai Motor and Kia. In a speech in October in the Detroit area, Trump announced plans to push for a 100 percent tax deduction on interest paid on loans for cars with internal combustion engines. With local installment interest rates ranging from 7% to 11%, this policy could significantly reduce financing costs for consumers and potentially boost sales of internal combustion engine vehicles. Although Hyundai Motor Group ranks second in the US electric vehicle market, 75-80% of its sales still come from internal combustion engine vehicles. Thus, reduced rates could offset the impact of the universal tariff.

Last year, the Hyundai Motor Group sold approximately 1.65 million units in the US. With local plants operating at full capacity, this allows the Group to produce about 60% of its US sales volume domestically, avoiding tariffs and reducing shipping costs. This local production capacity is particularly important in light of President-elect Trump's proposed universal tariff of 10% on imported goods.

In addition, the capacity at the Georgia meta plant is to be increased from 360000 to 500000 units produced at the beginning of 2025, meaning that around 70% of last year's sales figures would already be produced domestically.

So it remains exciting, but one thing is certain in my opinion, Hyundai will continue to grow in the future thanks to innovation, technological openness and strategic action 💪

$HYUD (-3.85%) after downward movement, with a good start to the week ✌️

Yesterday a first tranche $HYUD (-3.85%) Hyundai into the portfolio yesterday. I will continue to build up the position in the future, the target is 50 shares. I think Hyundai is favorably valued even though they have a lot of debt and although there are no easy times ahead for car manufacturers. And even though I see Hyundai as the industry leader alongside Tesla, Byd and Toyota, I bought the stock mainly because of Boston Dynamics.

Boston Dynamics: Humanoid robot Atlas trains for work in the automotive industry.

The robotics company Boston Dynamics is continuing to prepare its electric humanoid robot Atlas for the world of work. After the company has allowed the robot to demonstrate its "sporting" and movement skills, the fun has obviously come to an end and it has to carry out its first tasks. In a video from Thursday, Boston Dynamics shows how Atlas autonomously sorts car parts in real time under laboratory conditions.

Possible use in the automotive industry

It is no coincidence that Boston Dynamics is apparently training its humanoid robot for use in car production. The Hyundai Group, which also manufactures cars, bought Boston Dynamics. The cooperation with Toyota, the world's largest car manufacturer, may also have helped to initially prepare the robot for use in car factories. Both companies could want to use Atlas in this area, which already has a high degree of automation through robots.

$HYUD (-3.85%) Hyundai strengthens its online marketing in the Japanese market 💪🙋‍♂️🤗👍

I got carried away today and bought at $HYUD (-3.85%) to buy at 🤷‍♂️🤗🤑

What do you actually think of $HYUD (-3.85%) ?

I am actually extremely convinced of Hyundai and bullish in the long term.

I bought in at €38 a long time ago and am actually thinking about buying more.

At the moment, the share is holding up pretty well compared to other manufacturers.

With the premium brand Genesis, Kia and Hyundai itself strongly positioned and serves all common drive types.

Be it gasoline, electric hybrid or hydrogen, these are also being further developed and at an end customer price that a normal earner can still pay.💪

The 5 to 7-year warranty does the rest.

Maybe it really is the new Volkswagen 😅

Some manufacturers can really take a leaf out of their book abschneiden🤷‍♂️
