Vietnamese EV maker VinFast is now worth more than Ford and GM after Nasdaq debut - CNBC article
VinFast’s shares jumped some 270% after its U.S. trading debut, vaulting its total market value past some of the world’s largest automakers. On Tuesday, the Vietnamese #electricvehicle maker listed on Nasdaq following the completion of its merger with the U.S.-listed #SPAC (special purpose acquisition company) Black Spade Acquisition. Shares of VinFast closed at $37.06 on Tuesday — 270% higher than Black Spade Acquisition’s IPO price of $10. Following the market debut, VinFast is now currently worth $85 billion, according to CNBC calculations. The SPAC merger previously valued VinFast at approximately $23 billion, according to a June filing with U.S. securities regulator. Source: CNBC
UK headline inflation cooled sharply in July to an annual 6.8%, but the core consumer price index remained unchanged, posing a potential headache for the Bank of England
The headline CPI reading was in line with a consensus forecast among economists polled by Reuters, and follows the cooler-than-expected 7.9% figure of June. Despite the decline, UK inflation is still the highest among "advanced" economies (see upper chart below). On a monthly basis, the headline CPI decreased by 0.4% versus a consensus forecast of -0.5%. However, core inflation — which excludes volatile energy, food, alcohol and tobacco prices — stayed 6.9%, unchanged from June and slightly above a consensus forecast of 6.8%.
