Americans spent briskly at retailers in recent months, supporting hopes for a strong holiday shopping season and giving the economy momentum. Retail sales- measuring spending at restaurants, clothiers, online stores and other shops- rose 0.8% in October from the prior month, the Commerce Department said Tuesday. Sales grew 1% in September, revised figures showed, up from a previously reported 0.6% increase. Those gains marked the best two-month stretch of sales in at least two years. September and October are shaping up to be the best two-month stretch for retail sales since early 2...
It seems that the new president Donald Trump didn't manage to win the love of China yet, truly saying the idea of launching an all-trade war against China isn't something the country must really like. We remember the way China lashed out repeatedly the Asian country during the acrimonious race for the White House.

US auto and iPhone sales in China will suffer a setback, and US soybean and maize imports will be halted. China...
Even though GM introduced its new Chevrolet Cruze to the market, the inventories have swelled as more buyers choose SUVs.

GM said it plans to cut the third shift at its Lansing Grand River Assembly Plant in Michigan and Lordstown Assembly Plant in Ohio in January because sales of cars made at those plants are declining. The automaker assembles the Cadillac ATS and CTS and the Chevrolet Camaro at its plant in Lansing and makes the Chevrolet Cruze at its plant in Lordstown. GM had a slight increase in...
Toyota has finally cut its forecast for North American car sales by 60,000 automobiles this year, and it's the first time when it revealed what expectations it has for US's car market. The automaker is convinced that a decline is inevitable. As American consumers shift away from fuel sippers like the Prius Hybrid and toward trucks and sport utility vehicles. Nissan Motor Co., which posted a drop in profit as it gave heftier incentives that buoyed deliveries, said it’s not seeing room for further expansion. The executive vice president of Toyota admitted that the car sa...
