Two more strikes were then carried out: on October 23, at Stellantis Sterling Heights, Michigan plant, which makes the best-selling Ram 1500 pickup truck, and on October 24, at GM Arlington, Texas facility, which assembles the Chevy Tahoe GMC Yukon, and Cadillac Escalade.
Fain said that Ford would be facing a larger strike if they didn’t reach an agreement.
Ford knew what would happen on Wednesday if there was no deal. Fain stated in the video posted on X that “that was checkmate.”
According to Deutsche Bank analyst Emmanuel Rosner, the strike cost GM Ford and Stellantis approximately $2.1 billion before interest and tax in lost earnings as of October 23. GM pulled its earnings forecast this week after the strike muddied their outlook.
The S&P 500 has been underperforming GM and Ford shares since July. Stellantis shares are up 33% in the US so far this year.
What Bloomberg Intelligence says:
Ford’s tentative agreement with the UAW could increase its costs in the first year by over $900 million, based on an 11% rise in the year before. This would put additional pressure on efforts to improve the company’s mediocre profit.
