Tesla's Model Y secured the No. 2 spot among China's best-selling vehicle models through July, trailing Geely's lower-priced Xingyuan as electric vehicles continued to dominate consumer demand, according to Wednesday sales data from Autohome. Geely's Xingyuan led the six-month ranking with nearly 197,500 units sold, while Tesla's Model Y exceeded 180,000 deliveries.

The rankings also showed strong competition from BYD (BYDDY), which placed three models among the 10 best sellers. Its Yuan UP ranked fifth with nearly 97,700 units, while additional BYD models occupied sixth and seventh positions. Tesla's performance came as China's broader passenger-vehicle market remained under pressure. Industry data showed total passenger-car sales fell 20.3% through July, while new-energy vehicles, including battery-electric and hybrid models, represented 65.1% of July sales, up from 54% a year earlier. Geely's strong showing highlights growing competition for Tesla in China, where domestic automakers continue expanding their electric-vehicle offerings across different price ranges.

Geely's Xingyuan electric hatchback led the market with nearly 197,500 vehicles sold during the six months through July, according to Autohome data cited by CNBC. Tesla's Model Y ranked second with more than 180,000 sales. The price gap is striking. Geely's Xingyuan starts below 100,000 yuan, or about $14,820, while the Model Y costs between 263,500 yuan and 313,500 yuan. Still, Tesla managed to outsell competing vehicles from Li Auto, Xiaomi and BYD, showing the Model Y retains considerable appeal despite its premium price. China's market is also becoming increasingly electric. New-energy vehicles accounted for 65.1% of new passenger-car sales in July, up from 54% a year earlier. For Tesla, the challenge is keeping the Model Y near the top as Chinese manufacturers offer increasingly capable EVs at far lower prices. The next question is whether Tesla can protect that position without relying more heavily on discounts.

RRR have gained 20.3% in the past three months, putting the focus on whether operating fundamentals can support the move. Stable gaming activity and an expanding development pipeline help the case, but construction and higher costs are pressuring profitability. Execution now matters more. Durango and other projects can add earnings capacity over time, yet leverage remains elevated and estimate momentum has weakened. RRR's Core Gaming Trends Stay Resilient Core slot and table trends were stable in the second quarter. Carded spend per visit and net theoretical win increased across local, regional and national customers. July gaming trends also remained favorable. Red Rock Resorts, Inc. Price and ConsensusRed Rock Resorts, Inc. Price and Consensus Red Rock Resorts, Inc. price-consensus-chart | Red Rock Resorts, Inc. Quote Peer results show a mixed backdrop. Boyd Gaming Corporation BYD said its Las Vegas Locals segment faced destination softness and construction disruption, though the rest of the segment grew revenues. Caesars Entertainment, Inc. CZR reported Las Vegas net revenues down 3.5% year over year, while regional net revenues rose 9.4%. Red Rock Resorts' Durango Expansion Extends the Runway Durango remains a key long-term growth lever. The December 2025 expansion added more than 25,000 square feet of casino space, a high-limit slot area and nearly 2,000 covered parking spaces. Management has cited favorable results from the premium gaming area. Durango North remains scheduled for the second half of 2027. The project is expected to add more than 275,000 square feet, nearly 400 slots and new dining, entertainment, bowling and theater amenities. Management cited residential growth in Southwest Las Vegas as support for the project. RRR's Margin Pressure Tests the Rally Near-term profitability is the main counterweight. Consolidated adjusted EBITDA fell 9.3% year over year to $208 million in the second quarter, while margin contracted 281 basis points to 40.8%. Las Vegas adjusted EBITDA margin fell 143 basis points to 45.2%. Green Valley Ranch absorbed about $7 million of disruption in the quarter. Durango is expected to face about $2.5 million of quarterly disruption beginning in the third quarter through completion in the second half of 2027. Labor costs rose about 3%, while electric utility expense is expected to remain a drag through the rest of 2026. Red Rock Resorts' Debt Raises the Bar for Execution RRR ended the second quarter with $136.5 million of cash, $3.6 billion of total debt and $3.5 billion of net debt. Net debt to EBITDA increased to 4.21X from 4.07X at March 31, reducing balance-sheet flexibility during an investment-heavy period. Full-year 2026 capital spending is still expected at $375 million to $425 million, including $275 million to $300 million of investment capital. Second-quarter operating free cash flow of $100 million supports reinvestment, but elevated leverage leaves less room to absorb execution or cost variability. Story Continues RRR's Mixed Scores Temper Momentum Enthusiasm Bottom line, RRR's 20.3% three-month gain is supported by resilient gaming trends and a multi-year development pipeline, but margin pressure, construction disruption and leverage keep the fundamental picture balanced. Price strength alone does not remove the execution risk. The stock carries a Zacks Rank #3 (Hold), with a Value Score of C, Growth Score of C, Momentum Score of F and VGM Score of D. The #3 Rank does not signal the stronger short-term setup associated with #1 or #2 stocks, while the weaker Style Scores temper the momentum signal. You can see the complete list of today's Zacks #1 Rank (Strong Buy) stocks here. The current fiscal-year EPS estimate has declined 1.9% in the past four weeks and 10.7% in the past 12 weeks.

ADNT Absorbs Temporary Costs as Margins Tighten ADNT generated adjusted EBITDA of $225 million, down slightly from $226 million a year earlier. Adjusted EBITDA margin contracted 30 basis points to 5.7%, as the company absorbed about $32 million of temporary headwinds tied to the Middle East conflict and customer- and supplier-driven disruptions. Higher commodity and freight expenses contributed to the pressure, along with operating inefficiencies. Roughly $20 million of the quarterly headwind was Middle East-related, including freight, fuel and resin costs.

Adjusted EBITDA rose to $125 million from $112 million, while margin edged up to 6.5% from 6.4%, supported by higher volumes with key customers despite added input costs and temporary operating inefficiencies. EMEA sales declined 4.5% to $1.21 billion, and adjusted EBITDA fell to $14 million from $21 million as lower customer volumes weighed on results. Asia sales climbed 12.3% to $810 million, but adjusted EBITDA decreased to $107 million from $113 million amid lower equity income, China mix pressure, softer ICE demand and launch investments. ADNT Converts Operations Into Stronger Cash Flow ADNT generated $205 million of operating cash flow in the quarter, up from $172 million a year ago. Capital expenditures were $67 million, resulting in free cash flow of $138 million versus $115 million in the prior-year period. The quarter benefited from about $45 million of customer payment timing that is expected to reverse in the fourth quarter. Cash and cash equivalents stood at $924 million as of June 30, 2026, down from $958 million as of Sept. 30, 2025. Total liquidity was about $1.8 billion, including roughly $834 million of available revolver capacity, while the leverage ratio was 1.7 times. The company repurchased $30 million of shares during the quarter, bringing fiscal year-to-date repurchases to $55 million. As of June 30, 2026, $80 million of shares remain under the current share repurchase authorization. Story Continues Adient Raises Sales View, Holds Earnings Outlook Adient raised its fiscal 2026 consolidated sales outlook to about $15 billion from roughly $14.8 billion, reflecting improved customer production schedules and, to a lesser extent, favorable foreign exchange. The company kept its adjusted EBITDA forecast at approximately $885 million. Free cash flow guidance remains about $130 million, while capital expenditures are expected to be approximately $300 million. The company expects Middle East-related pressures, including elevated chemical and freight costs and lower export volumes in certain markets, to continue weighing on near-term profitability. It sees full-year Middle East costs at roughly $35-$40 million based on current conditions.

Drivers and fleet operators in the capital have complained of nine-month waiting times for even small numbers of cars from the London Electric Vehicle Company (LEVC), which is currently the sole manufacturer available. Dwindling demand for black cabs means the Coventry-based group, owned by Chinese giant Geely, has cut production of the celebrated vehicles as the popularity of ride-hailing apps lead to fewer drivers. But its \"build-to-order\" policy has been blamed for creating a shortfall of electric taxis, just as net zero rules imposed by Transport for London (TfL) force drivers to retire their older diesel vehicles and buy new ones. At the moment, mainstream manufacturers such as Ford, Stellantis and Nissan do not produce a London taxi because it would not be financially viable, leaving LEVC's electric TX cab as the only option. Mick Walker, the secretary of the London Cab Drivers Club, said: \"Everyone is starting to realise the trade is in serious trouble. \"There are drivers being put out of work now because they cannot actually get a vehicle.\" Steve McNamara, the general secretary of the Licenced Taxi Drivers' Association, stressed that the secondhand market for black cabs remained healthy, giving individuals an alternative option. But he warned that things were particularly tough for fleet operators that only buy new. Colts Cabs, London's largest fleet operator with more than 1,000 cabs, typically replaces between 100 and 200 vehicles per year but said it had been offered just 10 cars when it attempted to order 30 in March. Mr McNamara said: \"Fleets are really struggling to get hold of new vehicles. \"In recent weeks and months, there have been attempts to place orders for 200 cabs and people are being told they can only have 25 and not until February next year at the earliest.\" An LEVC spokesman said the company \"regularly adjusts manufacturing output to meet expected market demand\" but insisted that the cuts to production were also the result of work to gear up for the launch of a new model. He added: \"In the meantime, TX assembly continues and new vehicle deliveries, used sales and aftersales operations continue as normal.\"LEVC is the only manufacturer of black cabs - Simon Dawson/Bloomberg The most recently available accounts published by the company say it produced 1,308 cars in 2024, or about 25 per week. However, the figure is thought to have fallen since then. China's Geely acquired the London Taxi Company, now known as LEVC, in 2013. Story Continues The automotive giant, which also owns Lotus, Volvo and Polestar, later invested \u00a3500m in a cutting-edge factory in Ansty Business Park on the outskirts of Coventry. Its business plan assumed demand for its world-famous taxis from London and other world cities, with a van variant also developed as a sideline. However, industry sources say demand in both categories has been disappointing globally. In particular, LEVC says it has cut production in response to a dramatic decline in the number of licenced taxi drivers in London. Since 2020, the figure has plunged from about 20,400 to 15,900. However, cabbies argue that the company's \"build-to-order\" policy is failing to keep pace with demand for replacement vehicles, creating a vicious feedback loop where cars become even less affordable and more drivers are squeezed out. Under TfL rules related to air quality, black cabs must be retired after 12 years. The policy will mean some 1,300 cars are taken off the streets in the next 11 months alone, according to the London Cab Drivers Club. At the same time, rising input costs and high interest rates have pushed up the cost of LEVC's electric taxis. When the TX was introduced in 2018, the base purchase price stood at under \u00a355,000.
