Rivian, Lucid to Benefit From Trump Tax Bill, BNP Paribas Says
(Bloomberg) -- Shares of Rivian Automotive Inc. and Lucid Group Inc. gained as much as 4.6% and 8.8%, respectively, on Thursday as BNP Paribas sees the EV makers benefiting from President Donald Trump's tax and spending bill ending electric vehicle tax credits. NYC Commutes Resume After Midtown Bus Terminal Crash Chaos Struggling Downtowns Are Looking to Lure New Crowds Massachusetts to Follow NYC in Making Landlords Pay Broker Fees What Gothenburg Got Out of Congestion Pricing Foreign Buyers Swoop on Cape Town Homes, Pricing Out Locals The bill, which was passed by the US Senate and is expected to be passed by the House of Representatives on Thursday, would end the $7,500 electric vehicle consumer tax credit after Sept. 30. Getting rid of the tax credit is projected to lead to a drop in demand for electric vehicles later in the year, but not all automakers are expected to be impacted equally. 'Similarly to RIVN, we do believe LCID stands to benefit from reduced EV competition as OEMs deemphasize US EV ambitions,' BNP Paribas analyst James Picariello wrote in a note to clients Thursday. Automakers like General Motors Co., Ford Motor Co., Hyundai Motor Co. and its affiliated Kia Corp. have ramped up EV production in recent years. But without government incentives, and with consumer demand softening, BNP expects those efforts to slow, Picariello wrote. But for companies that solely focus on electric vehicles like Rivian, Lucid and Tesla Inc., this could lead to more market share available. The bill offers a potential boon for the electric vehicle stocks, which have broadly declined this year amid macroeconomic pressures including tariff uncertainty. Rivian may also benefit from continued backlash against Elon Musk and Tesla for his previous involvement in the Trump administration, Picariello wrote. Tesla delivered 384,122 vehicles in the second quarter, a 13% year-over-year decline, the company reported on Wednesday. Rivian and Lucid both fell short of expectations in the second quarter. Rivian delivered 10,661 vehicles, 2.3% below the average analyst estimate. Lucid delivered 3,309 vehicles in the second quarter, 4% below the average analyst estimate. BNP expects third-quarter deliveries to rise as consumers rush to buy before the tax credit ends. Rivian is likely to benefit more than Lucid, given Lucid's slower production ramp and the fact that its Gravity SUV isn't expected to be available until the end of 2025, and the crossover utility vehicle until 2027. Picariello has an outperform rating on Rivian and an underperform rating on Lucid.

Utah accuses Snapchat of designing algorithm addictive to children
Top Utah officials are suing Snap Inc., which owns the social media platform Snapchat, and accusing it of creating an algorithm addicting children to the app, as well as enabling the illegal sales of drugs and sexual exploitation. Republican Gov. Spencer Cox and state Attorney General Derek Brown filed the lawsuit on Monday, saying Snap 'profits from unconscionable design features created to addict children to the app, and facilitates illegal drug sales and sextortion.' The image-sharing app allows users to send pictures that disappear after they are viewed, which the lawsuit states is a 'favored tool for drug dealers and sexual predators targeting children.' The lawsuit details four cases where men groomed, sexually abused or assaulted children through Snapchat since 2021. It also lists the arrest of a drug dealer running a 'truly massive' drug ring through Snapchat in 2019. The lawsuit also alleges that the platform's AI feature, 'My AI,' which allows users to send text, pictures and video to it, 'comes as states confront the harsh realities of AI technology's impact on children.' The lawsuit accuses the AI model of 'hallucinating false information and giving dangerous advice' to users, including minors. 'Tests on underage accounts have shown My AI advising a 15-year-old on how to hide the smell of alcohol and marijuana; and giving a 13-year-old account advice on setting the mood for a sexual experience with a 31-year-old,' the lawsuit states. 'This lawsuit against Snap is about accountability and about drawing a clear line: the well-being of our children must come before corporate profits,' Cox said in a statement. 'We won't sit back while tech companies exploit young users.' The state also accuses Snap of deceiving users and their parents about the safety of its platform, noting it violates the Utah Consumer Privacy Act by not informing users of their data-sharing practices and failing to allow users to opt out of sharing their data. It states that the AI feature still collects user geolocation data even when 'Ghost Mode,' which hides users' location from other users, is activated. 'Snap's commitment to user safety is an illusion,' the lawsuit reads. 'Its app is not safe, it is dangerous.' The Hill has reached out to Snap Inc. for comment. The filing is Utah's fourth lawsuit filed against social media companies, following lawsuits against Meta, which owns Facebook and Instagram, and TikTok. Utah is not the first state to sue the platform for its impact on children. In April, Florida sued the platform as well, making similar allegations about its harm to children.

Dozens arrested protesting GOP megabill
Dozens were arrested on Capitol Hill Monday amid demonstrations against the GOP's 'big, beautiful bill,' which is full of President Trump's legislative priorities, including significant cuts to Medicaid and the federal food stamp program. Capitol Police arrested 38 individuals in the Capitol Rotunda and an intersection nearby. Those taken into custody were charged with crowding, obstructing and incommoding, according to The Associated Press. Law enforcement did not immediately respond to The Hill's request for comment on the matter. Several organizations, including Repairers of the Breach, promoted the demonstrations as the first of 'Moral Mondays,' dedicated to railing against the Trump administration's efforts to cut federal spending and its robust crackdown on illegal immigration. Those who gathered from the Poor People's Campaign, an economic justice organization, brought 51 caskets to symbolize the 51,000 deaths the group has estimated would come if Congress moves forward with its sweeping cuts to health care alone. 'The largest ever cuts to America's safety net were pushed through the House and the Senate without a single hearing for the people whose lives depend on these programs to testify,' Rev. William J. Barber II, co-chair of the Poor People's Campaign, wrote in a Monday Substack post. Rep. Jamie Raskin (D-Md.) also joined protestors to hear their stories and speak on the potential impact of Republicans' spending and tax package. 'An honor to stand shoulder-to-shoulder with @RevDrBarber and @BRepairers to denounce the GOP's catastrophic tax bill on behalf of tens of millions of Americans who will lose Medicaid, SNAP benefits and other lifeline staples,' Raskin (D-Md.) wrote Monday in a post on social platform X following the gathering. 'Trump's tactics of disappearing people in America should terrify everyone who still cherishes democracy and freedom,' the Maryland lawmaker added in a later post. 'We reject this growing authoritarian assault.' The arrests come as the Senate pulled an all-nighter vote-a-rama with the goal of moving the legislation — which is not final — forward. The GOP can only afford to lose three votes in the upper chamber. Sens. Susan Collins (R-Maine), Rand Paul (R-Ky.) and Thom Tillis (R-N.C.) have already signaled they will not vote in favor of the megabill. With 50 votes, Vice President Vance can cast a tie-breaking vote. If it clears the Senate, it will go back to the House. Lawmakers in the lower chamber have already voiced concerns over the changes made to its version, which was passed in May.
