9The Japanese car manufacturers Honda $7267 (+0,26 %) and Nissan $7201 (-1,58 %) are considering a merger, according to media reports.
The joint production capacities, sales channels and development departments could thus strengthen their own market position in the battle against Chinese manufacturers.
It is also possible that Mitsubishi $8058 (+0,45 %) may also become part of the new alliance.
No exact deal has yet been made.
Moody's $MCO (+0,31 %) has upgraded the outlook for Nissan $7201 (-1,58 %) to negative, although the credit rating remains unchanged. This is due to uncertainties about the company's financial recovery and the challenges in its main business areas. Moody's points to weak sales and structural problems that could jeopardize Nissan's medium-term stability.

Sunday:
Joe Biden resigns and names Kamala Harris as possible successor. Trump has already made a statement. We are curious to see what the markets will do tomorrow. The election campaign in the US seems to be starting all over again.
Monday:
The battery manufacturer $VAR1 (-1,19 %) Varta is restructuring at the expense of its shareholders. In addition, Porsche and Michael Tojner secure pre-emptive rights for the issue of new shares. As a result of the StaRUG proceedings, small shareholders at Varta in particular are left empty-handed.

Tuesday:
$P911 (-0,41 %) Porsche corrects its forecast. Turnover is expected to be lower than planned and the margin is also likely to fall. This is probably due to flooding at a European supplier.
Also $ST5 (-1,61 %) Steico also fell significantly. Although turnover and profit increased, the share price fell. The reason is a cautious outlook.
Wednesday:
Profit at $TSLA (-4,58 %) Tesla falls for the second quarter in a row, Tesla has clearly missed expectations with its figures. Car sales fell by seven percent to 19.9 billion USD. Total sales increased slightly thanks to the strong storage business.
$RHM (-0,78 %) Rheinmetall doubled its profit and was even able to exceed expectations. The armaments group is benefiting from numerous orders from the German armed forces. Sales increased by 49% to 2.2 billion euros in the second quarter. Profit doubled to 271 million euros. Rheinmetall is undoubtedly one of the winners of the Ukraine war.
The Purchasing Managers' Index for Germany 🇩🇪 and the USA are disappointing. The value for Germany fell below 50, and the same applies to industry in the USA. The index thus signals a recession. In the USA, at least the service sector remains above the 50 mark.

Thursday:
Yesterday, the building materials group $STO3 (-0,94 %) Sto reported disappointing figures. Earnings will probably be halved and the targets for 2024 and 2027 have been canceled.
There was also weak news from the automotive industry. $7201 (-1,58 %) Nissan's profit collapses by 99%. Opel parent company Stellantnis reports a 40% drop in profits.
Things are also going badly in the luxury goods industry. Gucci's sales shrank by 19%, putting pressure on the profits of its parent company $KER (+0,06 %) Kering.
Even consumer goods giant $NESN (-0,19 %) Nestlé disappointed with a lowered forecast. Turnover fell by 2.7%, partly due to currency effects.
Even in Poland 🇵🇱, which is otherwise economically spoiled, the supermarket chain $DNP (-2,38 %) Dino Polska has to report poor figures. Among other things, profits fell by 28% compared to the previous year.
The situation was different in the pharmaceutical sector. $SAN (-0,6 %) Sanofi exceeded analysts' expectations in terms of profit and was able to increase its turnover by 8 %. Also $AZN (+1,05 %) Astrazeneca also raised its annual targets. Sales increased by 15 %. However, profits fell slightly due to exchange rate effects.
Good economic data from the USA 🇺🇸. GDP growth in the second quarter was probably significantly stronger than expected (2.8 % annualized, expected: 2.0 %). In addition, inflation is unlikely to exceed expectations.
Friday:
$MBG (-0,07 %) Mercedes is able to slightly improve its return on sales again. In addition, there was no profit warning, which many had expected.
BASF $BAS (-0,12 %) BASF does not have to lower its forecast, but continues to struggle with rather weak figures. Sales fell by 7%, while adjusted profits of 2 billion euros in the second quarter were roughly at the previous year's level.
Inflation in Japan 🇯🇵 was above expectations. Real interest rate hikes may still have to be made there after all. However, even the price increases for core consumer prices in the capital Tokyo are barely above the BoJ's 2% target.
The German pharmaceutical group $MRK (-0,22 %) Merck also delivered strong figures and raised its forecast slightly. Instead of sales of 20.6 - 22.1 billion euros, the range was raised to 20.7 - 22.1 billion euros. Sales stagnated in the second quarter. The reason for the forecast increase is good figures for the cancer drug Xevinapant.
Most important dates in the coming week:
Tuesday: 14:00 Inflation data (Germany)
Wednesday: 05:00 Interest rate decision (BoJ)
Thursday: 13:00 Interest rate decision (BoE)
Former Nissan CEO Carlos Ghosn has filed a lawsuit against the Japanese car company, seeking $1 billion in damages. Ghosn, who was charged with violating stock market regulations and then fled to Lebanon, claims his reputation and finances have been damaged by the scandal surrounding him. The lawsuit was filed in a Beirut court several weeks ago. Ghosn denies the allegations against him in Japan and claims to be the victim of a conspiracy to prevent closer ties between Nissan and Renault. So far, the lawsuit has had no real impact on the company's $7201 (-1,58 %) Share.
What are your thoughts on Carlos Ghosn's lawsuit against Nissan and his demand for $1 billion in damages?

Ceconomy ( $CEC1 ) - The group wants to expand with its Media Markt and Saturn brands and open 35 department stores. Group CEO Wildberger is pursuing the goal of becoming the first omnichannel platform that combines e-commerce and in-store retail. In doing so, he even wants to compete with Amazon ( $AMZ (+0,26 %) ). During Corona, Ceconomy was already able to significantly improve logistics and thus shorten delivery times.
The stores will become smaller and more "smart shops" of 600 to 800 square meters will be built in the city centers, because 33% of the total turnover is already attributable to online trade.
Bayer ( $BAYN (+0,17 %) ) - Bayer was supported by strong demand for seeds and crop protection products as well as over-the-counter medicines in the last quarter. Bayer shares recently rose 2.16 percent to €51.09. There will also be a change at the head of the Crop Science division. Rodrigo Santos will succeed Liam Condon, who terminated his contract early, as COO. In the third quarter, Bayer was able to increase sales for the entire group by almost 15 percent year-on-year to €9.8 billion. In total, the company made a profit of 85 million euros. The profit was depressed by the high costs of restructuring measures.
Elon Musk - The founder of Tesla ( $TL0 (-4,58 %) ), let his fans vote on Twitter whether he should sell ten percent of his Tesla shares. More recently, he has been called upon to pay more taxes to help solve famine problems. Out of just over 3.5 million users, 58 percent voted in favor of a sale. This means that the block of shares to be sold would currently be worth about US$20 billion. Based on this vote, Tesla's share price collapsed by 8.47% to 965.66 euros.
Gazprom ( $SCF ) - After several months of energy crisis and rising prices, the Russian gas company is once again supplying gas to Germany and Austria under pressure from Putin. Gazprom's vice president also said that Russia has no interest in such high gas prices, as it would accelerate the transition to renewable energy in Europe.

The crypto-currency market's gold rush - Last night, the two leading crypto-currencies Bitcoin ( $BTC-EUR (-0,48 %) ) and Ethereum ( $ETH-USD (-0,37 %) ) were able to reach new all-time highs. Bitcoin was able to set the mark now at $68,642.00 with a daily increase of almost 5%. This brings its market capitalization to $1.28 trillion, with bitcoin managing to leave Tesla ( $TL0 (-4,58 %) ) behind it. Ethereum followed Bitcoin and also hit a new all-time high of $4,857.25. Successes like these have been evident in the market in recent weeks. For example, Cardano ( $ADA-USD (-0,98 %) ), Ethereum's competitor, gained 12 percent overnight, and Litecoin ( $LTC-EUR (-0,44 %) ), which had long been treading water, rose 20.3 percent in one day. This very strong performance, which can be seen across all crypto-currencies, led to the total market capitalization of all crypto-currencies crossing the US$3 trillion mark for the first time.
