Ford Electric Vehicle Deliveries Dive 31% as Mach-e Sales Halted

Bloomberga day ago
Ford Motor Co. 's electric vehicle sales plunged 31.4% in the second quarter after the automaker ordered dealers not to sell its battery-powered Mustang Mach-e model due to a safety flaw that could lock occupants in the car.
Ford said the EV swoon was driven by the Mach-e stop-sale and a shortage of stock on dealer lots caused by factory shutdowns to change over to the 2025 model-year versions of two of its three battery-powered models.

Del Monte, the 139-year-old canned fruits and vegetables company, seeks bankruptcy protection

Del Monte Foods, the 139-year-old company best known for its canned fruits and vegetables, is filing for bankruptcy protection as U.S. consumers increasingly bypass its products for healthier or cheaper options. Del Monte has secured $912.5 million in debtor-in-possession financing that will allow it to operate normally as the sale progresses. 'After a thorough evaluation of all available options, we determined a court-supervised sale process is the most effective way to accelerate our turnaround and create a stronger and enduring Del Monte Foods,' CEO Greg Longstreet said in a statement. Del Monte Foods, based in Walnut Creek, California, also owns the Contadina tomato brand, College Inn and Kitchen Basics broth brands and the Joyba bubble tea brand. The company has seen sales growth of Joyba and broth in fiscal 2024, but not enough to offset weaker sales of Del Monte's signature canned products. 'Consumer preferences have shifted away from preservative-laden canned food in favor of healthier alternatives,' said Sarah Foss, global head of legal and restructuring at Debtwire, a financial consultancy. Grocery inflation also caused consumers to seek out cheaper store brands. And President Donald Trump's 50% tariff on imported steel, which went into effect in June, will also push up the prices Del Monte and others must pay for cans. Del Monte Foods, which is owned by Singapore's Del Monte Pacific, was also hit with a lawsuit last year by a group of lenders that objected to the company's debt restructuring plan. The case was settled in May with a loan that increased Del Monte's interest expenses by $4 million annually, according to a company statement. Del Monte said late Thursday that the bankruptcy filing is part of a planned sale of company's assets.

The Global 2000: Top 200

The Top 200 F or the past 23 years, Forbes' Global 2000 ranks the largest public companies in the world using four metrics—sales, profits, assets and market value—and despite the geopolitical uncertainty and combativeness resulting from Donald Trump's tariffs, all four reached records this year. The 2,000 companies on the 2025 list account for $52.9 trillion in annual revenue, $4.9 trillion in profit, $242.2 trillion in assets and $91.3 trillion in market cap. Those figures for profit, market value and assets have all at least tripled in the last 20 years, with total sales up 140% in that span, demonstrating how much globalization has helped the world grow, including the United States. America's largest bank, JPMorgan, is ranked No. 1 for the third year in a row, leading 612 U.S.-based companies on the list. A lake in the shape of the world's continents in the middle of untouched nature. getty Tech giants like Amazon and Microsoft as well as international behemoths Saudi Aramco and the Industrial and Commercial Bank of China remain entrenched members of the top 10, while Nvidia continues its fast rise up the rankings to 47th this year. We used the latest 12 months of financial data available to us as of April 25, 2025 to calculate the factors used in our ranking. Directly below find the Top 200. (Repeat ranks indicate a tie).
