Cleveland-Cliffs Stock Jumps as Steelmaker Trims Losses
Key Takeaways Cleveland-Cliffs narrowed its losses on Trump administration support and cost reductions. The steelmaker's second-quarter results were better than analysts anticipated. The company said tariffs and the administration's push for more U.S. manufacturing boosted (CLF) shares jumped Monday as the big steelmaker reported narrowing losses as cost cutting, along with new tariffs and the Trump administration's push for more domestic manufacturing, boosted results. Shares were up close to 15% in recent trading. They had entered Monday's session roughly flat for 2025. The company posted a second-quarter adjusted loss of $0.50 per share, nearly half of what it was in the first quarter and lower than analysts surveyed by Visible Alpha expected. Revenue fell 3.1% to $4.93 billion, but that was also better than estimates. Steel shipments of 4.3 million net tons hit an all-time high. CEO Lourenco Goncalves said the results 'demonstrate that the footprint optimization initiatives announced a few months ago are already generating a positive impact on both costs and revenues.' The company anticipates the second-quarter cost reductions will be 'even further amplified' in the third and fourth quarters, he said. Goncalves noted that Cleveland-Cliffs is a major supplier to the automotive industry, and that the Trump administration is a big supporter of both the steel and auto sectors. He said the company has 'started to see the positive impact that tariffs have on domestic manufacturing,' and that Cleveland-Cliffs sees a continuation of that trend, 'promoting the resurgence of the American automotive industry supported by a thriving domestic steel industry.'

Great Rates and Award-Winning Service Affordable Auto Insurance, Customized for You The Insurance Savings You Expect ANNA, Ohio, July 21, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Honda will mark the 40th anniversary of the Anna Engine Plant (AEP) on Tuesday, July 22, celebrating the largest Honda auto engine plant in the world. Now a key part of the Honda EV Hub, AEP is one of three production facilities in Ohio that are advancing the concept of flexible manufacturing, using domestic and globally made parts to produce internal combustion engines (ICE), hybrid powertrains and all-electric motors on the same production lines. AEP has built more than 32.5 million engines, including for automobiles and powersports products, as well as a variety of powertrain components for engines and transmissions since it began production of motorcycle engines on July 22, 1985. Production of auto engines began in 1986 with a 4-cylinder powerplant for the Honda Civic. AEP currently produces a range of V6 and inline 4-cylinder engines, including 1.5, 2.0 and 3.0-liter turbo engines. The production history of AEP also includes a great variety of engines for performance vehicles and highly fuel-efficient hybrid-electric models. Notable power units include: 2.0-liter Atkinson-cycle four-cylinder engine that powers the Honda hybrid-electric models, including the Accord, CR-V and Civic hybrids 190-horsepower 1.5-liter turbocharged 4-cylinder engine that powers Honda Civic, Accord, CR-V and Acura Integra and ADX 315 hp 2.0-liter turbocharged 4-cylinder engine for the Civic Type R, which is exported to Japan where the vehicle is assembled 320 hp 2.0-liter turbocharged 4-cylinder engine that powers the Acura Integra Type S 355 hp 3.0-liter turbocharged V6 engine that powers Acura TLX and MDX Type S models 500 hp 3.5-liter twin-turbo V6 engine that powered the second-generation Acura NSX "Everything that Honda has accomplished at the Anna Engine Plant during the past 40 years has been achieved through the skills and commitment of our associates and this will continue as we pursue an expanded form of flexible manufacturing in the future," said Michael Tinch, plant lead of Anna Engine Plant. "As we maximize production of ICE and hybrid models, even while preparing for the future of EV production, I know our associates will continue to produce high quality products that meet the needs of our customers." Established in 1985 as a modest 200,000 square-foot facility with 94 production associates, AEP has evolved through a series of investments totaling $2.9 billion into a sprawling facility of over 2.8 million square feet, employing 2,900 associates. Production operations range from ferrous casting, high-pressure die-casting and machining to heat treating and assembly, solidifying AEP's reputation as one of the industry's most comprehensive and interconnected powertrain facilities. AEP produces a variety of components, including cylinder sleeves and heads, camshafts and crankshafts for Honda engines, as well as the high-precision pulleys used in the continuously variable transmission (CVT) produced at the nearby Honda Transmission in Ohio also using domestic and globally made parts. Demonstrating the plant's adaptability and flexibility, AEP is now playing a major role in Honda's electrified future, even as it continues to produce a range of ICE engines to support customer demand. As part of the Honda EV Hub, and as a first within global Honda, AEP has added three new processes to produce the aluminum EV battery case, including: megacasting, friction stir welding (FSW) and Minimum Quantity Lubrication (MQL) machining. When EV production begins in 2026, the EV battery case megacast at AEP will go to the Marysville Auto Plant, where it will be combined with the battery module to create the EV battery pack that will power the Honda and Acura EVs made at both the Marysville and East Liberty Auto Plants. Honda Manufacturing in OhioHonda has produced automobiles in Ohio for over 40 years, beginning in November 1982 with the start of automobile production at the Marysville Auto Plant, and today is the largest employer in the state. Honda established U.S. manufacturing operations in Marysville in 1979 with the start of motorcycle production. Today, over 12,000 associates support Honda manufacturing in Ohio, with five plants that represent a total capital investment of $13 billion and the capacity to produce 460,000 Honda and Acura automobiles, 1.18 million automobile engines, and over 1 million automobile transmissions and two-motor hybrid systems, using domestic and globally made parts. The company's five Ohio manufacturing facilities include three auto plants, the Marysville Auto Plant, East Liberty Auto Plant and Performance Manufacturing Center, as well as the Anna Engine Plant and transmission plant in Russells Point. The company has invested more than $1.4 billion in these facilities over the past six years, continually modernizing equipment and adopting new technologies to advance quality and efficiency for Honda and Acura customers here and around the world. Now, Honda is establishing a new EV Hub for the start of EV production in the U.S. including an investment of over $1 billion to re-tool its existing auto and powertrain plants in Ohio for production of electric vehicles, as well as $3.5 billion with LG Energy Solution to establish a joint venture EV battery plant in Fayette County, Ohio.

Federal excise tax changes fall short in Congress
This story was originally published on Trucking Dive. To receive daily news and insights, subscribe to our free daily Trucking Dive newsletter. Industry stakeholders are renewing pushes to reduce the federal excise tax. The tax is 12% on most new trucks and trailers and certain instances of chassis, based on the first retail sale. The American Trucking Associations President and CEO Chris Spear has railed against it, calling it an 'antiquated tax' that 'imposes an enormous hardship.' The American Trucking Associations has long objected to regulations that unfairly burden truckers. Advocates seeking to change the measure highlight that the tax started at 3% in 1917 before reaching its current rate in 1983, according to an April report by the American Transportation Research Institute, the research arm of the ATA. The ATRI report also highlighted that the tax can exceed $20,000 for new trucks and extend beyond $52,000 for a zero-emission truck, which comes as vehicle costs have skyrocketed in recent years. Legislators attempted to change the tax this year. In March, U.S. Rep. Doug LaMalfa, of California, introduced a bill seeking to repeal the tax, but the bill has never gotten past the House Committee on Ways and Means. In late June, the 'big, beautiful' tax policy bill drew a proposed amendment from U.S. Sen. Bernie Moreno, of Ohio, seeking to reduce the tax to 2%. That didn't make the cut for the One Big Beautiful Bill Act that became law. He still plans to include the 2% provision in future legislation, according to his communications director, Reagan McCarthy. 'Senator Moreno is committed to fighting for American truckers, the backbone of America's economy, and fought to include critical tax relief for truckers in President Trump's One Big Beautiful Bill,' McCarthy said in an email. 'He will continue to look for avenues to get this provision included in future legislation.' The Owner-Operator Independent Drivers Association has expressed reservations on changing the excise tax. The organization's leadership has argued that significant changes to the tax could drain funding from the Highway Trust Fund, which covers transportation projects. Without a replacement, the Highway Trust Fund could be stressed and adversely affect truckers, OOIDA officials say. The group says another revenue source would be needed to cover those highway costs. The ATRI report suggested that if the excise tax were repealed, one solution could be a diesel tax increase of 11.2 cents per gallon to cover the costs. 'This increase is much lower than an inflation-adjusted increase of the diesel tax, which would have risen by $0.286 since its last adjustment in 1994 to a total of $0.527 per gallon,' the report said.
