The 4.1% decline in U.S. new-vehicle sales in August provided more evidence of plateauing of consumer demand.

For Nissan (NSANY), the automaker's Rogue crossover in...

Global car sales have gained momentum this year, rising a stronger-than-expected 5% through July. While gains are expected to moderate through year-end, strengthening labour markets and improving financial conditions suggest that the upswing will continue in 2017.
