You'll Have To Wait Longer for the Dodge Charger Sixpack

You'll Have To Wait Longer for the Dodge Charger Sixpack

Motor 122-05-2025
Dodge
is slowly filling out the Charger's lineup. The two-door electric Daytona began reaching dealers earlier this year, and the automaker
just revealed the Daytona sedan
that'll go on sale in a few weeks. However, those wanting a combustion-powered Charger will have to wait longer than expected.
In January, Dodge told dealers that the Charger Sixpack would reach showrooms "
by summer 2025
," but that is no longer the case. Buried in the Daytona sedan's announcement was this tidbit: "Dodge Charger Sixpack-powered models will launch in the second half of 2025."

Summer begins on June 20, so maybe Dodge is planning for a brief delay that'll push
Charger
deliveries to early July, but the verbiage gives the brand the rest of the year to put the final touches on the Sixpack before it goes on sale, and it likely can't arrive soon enough.
Demand for EVs isn't growing as fast as expected, and
Dodge even postponed the Charger Daytona R/T
, the 496-horsepower entry-level EV, as the automaker continues to assess "the effects of US tariff policies."
There were rumors last year that demand for the gas-powered version had prompted the automaker to move up the model's launch
from late 2025 to early summer 2025
. However, a lot has changed since then, and the threat of tariffs and political uncertainty has made it challenging for automakers.

Tyson Foods hasn't seen 'material' impact from Trump tariffs as consumer protein push lifts results

Tyson Foods (TSN) reported results Monday that were better than expected for its fiscal third quarter. A consumer focus on protein and a lack of immediate impact from President Trump's tariff policies boosted results. "Consumers are prioritizing protein ... over other foods, but they're also prioritizing food as essential versus the non-essential things like apparel, ... bigger ticket items," Tyson Foods CEO Donnie King said. As far as the impact of President Trump's tariffs, King said, "I would not call anything we've seen from tariffs today, not only beef, but in pork, chicken. I don't see a material impact from that at this point." In the quarter, Tyson reported sales grew 4% to $13.88 billion, topping forecasts for revenue to tally $13.55 billion, according to Bloomberg data. Adjusted earnings per share were $0.91 in the quarter, ahead of forecasts for $0.78. The company also said its sales for its fiscal year 2025, which wraps up during the current quarter, will rise 2% to 3% from last year, better than its previous outlook for sales to be flat to up 1%. Tyson Foods stock rose about 3% following the results on Monday. Year to date, the stock remains down over 5%, trailing the S&P 500's roughly 7.5% gain.

Consumers leaned into frozen items like Tyson Simple Ingredient nuggets, which have higher protein. Tyson's fresh chicken business grew volume by 2.3%. Tyson now expects its chicken segment to post operating income of $1.3 billion to $1.4 billion for the year, up from the previously expected range of $1 billion to $1.3 billion. "Our chicken business is obviously running a lot better than it has," King said. "This has been a multiyear journey, but it's running more efficiently." King said the company is also seeing the benefit from the closure of four chicken plants two years ago. Its pork business is having a moment too. Volume for that segment grew 1.5% against forecasts for a 2.3% decline. Pork delivered its strongest third quarter adjusted operating income for the company in four years. All the momentum offset a more challenging quarter for its beef business. The average price for beef increased 10%, higher than the 7.3% jump expected. Volumes declined 3.1%, more than the 2% expected, as the tightened cattle supply made fewer available for Tyson to buy and drove costs higher. Still, King said its beef consumer "has been very resilient" in the face of higher prices. For ranchers, higher beef prices have been good news, according to Texas A&M professor David Anderson, as these prices reverse the situation "for ranchers who have dealt with low prices, high costs, and drought in recent years." Fewer imports from Mexico have hit the US cattle supply, however, creating another challenge for Tyson. "I expect the tariff and retaliatory tariffs from China have introduced more struggles in [the ranchers'] business," Anderson said. "I should say it's not just high prices but fewer cattle that make it hard to get enough cattle to operate." Brooke DiPalma is a senior reporter for Yahoo Finance.

Driver attempting to set a record at Utah's Bonneville Salt Flats dies after losing control

WENDOVER, Utah (AP) — A driver trying to set a speed record during a racing event at Utah's famed Bonneville Salt Flats died Sunday after losing control of his vehicle, organizers said. Driver Chris Raschke was treated by medical professionals at the scene, but died from his injuries, according to the Southern California Timing Association, which organizes the popular land-speed racing event known as 'Speed Week.' Raschke lost control of the vehicle about two and a half miles into a run. The association said the death is under investigation. For decades, people have used the flat, glasslike surface at Bonneville Salt Flats, 100 miles (160 kilometers) west of Salt Lake City, to set speed records sometimes topping 400 mph (644 kph). Speed Week has long been a draw for motorcycle and car fans. Raschke, 60, was the driver for a vehicle known as the Speed Demon. He had worked in motor sports for more than four decades. According to the Speed Demon racing team's site, Raschke worked at the Ventura Raceway in the early 1980s, raced 3-wheelers and cars in the mini stock division, learned to fabricate and maintain race cars when working with an acclaimed engine builder and later became a driver for the Speed Demon team. The Race Week event began on Saturday and runs through Friday.

Analyst downgrades top S&P 500 stock after disappointing earnings

Analyst downgrades top S&P 500 stock after disappointing earnings originally appeared on TheStreet. Compass Point has lowered Coinbase's (Nasdaq: COIN) price target from $330 to $248 and downgraded the rating from "Neutral" to "Sell" after the crypto exchange reported disappointing financial results for the second quarter of 2025. The investment firm indicated receding retail interest, poor Q2 records, weak prospects for recurring revenue lines like subscriptions and custody services the next quarter, and more competition from stablecoin and decentralized finance (DeFi) platforms as the reasons it downgraded the COIN stock's rating. Compass Point also warned of Coinbase's retail trading under pressure despite a bullish crypto market. Notably, retail trading is Coinbase's main profit are two other factors that the firm highlighted as possible risks for Coinbase. One is a potential delay in the CLARITY Act, which deals with classifying the financial status of crypto assets. Another is Coinbase trailing Robinhood (Nasdaq: HOOD) and Kraken in launching stock trading. 'We see limited support for COIN's valuation if crypto markets sell off further,' said Compass Point. Founded in 2012, Coinbase is the largest crypto exchange in the U.S. The company, which went public in April 2021, joined the S&P 500 list in May 2025 — the only crypto stock to be included in the hotly contested list so far. During Q2 2025, the exchange generated $1.5 billion in total revenue, $1.4 billion in net income, and earnings per share (EPS) of $5.14 in Q2. The exchange held 11,776 Bitcoin worth $1.3 billion by the end of the quarter. The COIN stock is trading at $319.55 at the time of writing, up 1.54% a day.
