Michelin Adjusts FY Guidance, Sees Sales Volumes Expected Within Range Of -6% And 4%; Group Total Sales For 9-Month €20.171 Billion, Down 4.6% YoY; Now Expects Segment Operating Income Around €3.4 Billion Vs More Than €3.5 Billion Before

As soon as Democratic nominee Kamala Harris promised to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/08/40387906/kamala-harris-plans-historic-federal-ban-on-corporate-price-gouging-in-food-and-grocery-industries">ban price-gouging on groceries</a> (if she were elected U.S. President in November), the blowback from critics was loud and fierce. 
But such laws, which put a floor and a ceiling on consumer goods and services through government mandate, are not new.
For example, President Franklin D. Roosevelt signed into law the Emergency Price Control Act of 1942 to curb inflation during World War II. It was enacted on Jan. 30, 1942 and expired on June 30,1947, <a href="https://www.loc.gov/item/uscode1940-006050a010/">according</a> to the Library of Congress.
Almost 30 years later, President Richard Nixon issued an executive order in 1971 that put a 90-day freeze on wages and prices, following the Economic Stabilization Act of 1970, <a href="https://www.cato.org/commentary/remembering-nixons-wage-price-controls">according</a> to the Cato Institute.

There are countless other instances of governments imposing such legislation as far back as the days of the Roman Empire, <a href="https://cdn.mises.org/Forty%20Centuries%20of%20Wage%20and%20Price%20Controls%20How%20Not%20to%20Fight%20Inflation_2.pdf">according</a> to &#8220;Forty Centuries of Wages and Price Controls.&#8221;
Harris presented the price-gouging ban a week ago at <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/08/40387906/kamala-harris-plans-historic-federal-ban-on-corporate-price-gouging-in-food-and-grocery-industries">a campaign rally</a> in North Carolina. The plan includes sharper scrutiny on potential mergers between supermarkets and food producers, which leads to higher grocery prices as expenses are passed onto consumers.
Grocer association gave the proposal <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/08/40467624/harris-price-gouging-plan-faces-pushback-from-grocers-hurting-from-the-same-inflationary-pressure-as">the cold shoulder</a>. They argue that they face the same inflationary pressures that consumers do.
When enacted, price control legislation significantly impacts sectors that have a handful of dominant players, such as soda production, tire manufacture, wireless communications and retail.

On Tuesday, shares of Michelin (cgde) (OTC: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/mgddy#OTC">MGDDY</a>) experienced volatile short activity. After the activity, the stock price went up +0.37% to $13.66.
The overall sentiment for MGDDY has been Bearish.
The signal from the volatility alert is trending Bearish. Therefore, the recommendation is to Increase Short Exposure.
The volatility alert was produced on the prior trading date, 12/20/2022 with a volatility change of +122.18%. The current volatility indicator stands at 9.731.
Overview: 
The securities lending volatility indicator is produced by Tidal Markets, in partnership with Benzinga Insights. Securities lending primarily serves the purpose of providing liquidity to short sellers. When unusual activity occurs in the securities lending markets, it acts as an upstream indicator to what is likely to occur downstream in the regular stock market.
Understanding the Volatility Alert: 
Overall sentiment is considered &quot;bear&quot; when broad market activity of the stock has been shown to indicate a negative directional basis, or is considered &quot;bull&quot; when indicating a positive directional basis. The securities lending volatility indicator provides a signal when it detects unusual short activity. Unusual short activity is based off a computer generated algorithmic formula utilizing securities lending trade details such as the volume of shares being shorted, the rate being paid to short the shares, and the type of collateral being posted - amongst other variables. The current volatility is the respective trading day&#39;s calculated securities lending volatility value. The volatility percentage change is the percentage difference in volatility between the two most recent days. The recommendation is a suggestive strategy, inferred from the strength of the Signal Trending, Current Volatility, and Volatility % Change. Recommendations may include, &quot;Strong Buy&quot;, &quot;Strong Sell&quot;, &quot;Increase Short Exposure&quot;, &quot;Decrease Short Exposure&quot;, or &quot;Market Neutral&quot;.

What if your car or truck could ditch expensive and unsafe rubber tires and embrace a non-pneumatic wheel with in-built suspension?
That&rsquo;s what Phoenix-based Global Air Cylinder Wheels (GACW) is thinking about, at least in the long term.
While the startup company states it is currently blazing a trail with its innovative non-pneumatic Air Suspension Wheel (ASW) by offering an alternative to the expensive and environmentally unfriendly rubber tire for heavy industry vehicles, it is also looking further afield than that.
The company sees the potential for its ASW across the entire existing tire market, valued at $322 billion in 2022 globally and with an estimated compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 8.4%. The ASW is an airless, mechanical wheel composed mainly of steel that is designed to last the lifetime of the vehicle it is attached to and which is completely recyclable.
Instead of only focusing on the off-the-road (OTR) <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/best-sectors-to-invest-in-right-now/">sector</a> where its ASW can be used with giant vehicles employed in such industries as mining, what if the product can be adapted for use by more regular over-the-road traffic? Think Volvo Group (NASDAQ Stockholm: VOLV B) or Daimler (OTC: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ddaif#OTC">DDAIF</a>) trucks. Even on a Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/tsla#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) or Ford Motor Co. (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/f#NYSE">F</a>) vehicle?
&ldquo;ASW technology can be applied to all verticals where traditional rubber tires are used, and this market is immense,&rdquo; GACW says. The company has already entered a project agreement with an unnamed global over-the-road rim manufacturer for ASW testing in commercial trucks and cars, it adds. 
<h2>Current Versus Future Focus?</h2>
The push for the ASW is all about safety, cost and the environment.&nbsp;
Rubber tires, especially in the OTR <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/best-sectors-to-invest-in-right-now/">sector</a>, can be prone to possible explosion and have short lifetimes on such vehicles, making them a very expensive proposition. One such tire can cost up to $75,000 and lasts only 6 to 9 months on average, GACW says.
In addition, there is a poor record of recycling such tires with an estimated 81% of tires being disposed of on-site, contributing to up to 28% of the world&rsquo;s microplastic waste, GACW says.
For now, the focus will remain on the OTR <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/best-sectors-to-invest-in-right-now/">sector</a> as the company seeks to ramp up production and have more testing in the field, with full commercialization predicted for 2023. That is a $30 billion market on its own, and the company says it has no direct competitors other than the manufacturers of rubber tires such as Bridgestone Corp. (OTC: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/brdcy#OTC">BRDCY</a>) and Michelin (OTC: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/mgddy#OTC">MGDDY</a>).
It does have several competitors in the mid-sized non-pneumatic market, including Michelin and Bridgestone. The over-the-road market would be largely uncharted territory.

Stocks That Hit 52-Week Highs On Tuesday

Former Nissan Motor Co Ltd (OTC: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/nsanf#OTC">NSANF</a>) chairman Carlos Ghosn has fled Japan, where he was facing financial crimes charges, and is now in his home country of Lebanon.
In a statement released by Ghosn to media outlets, the 65-year-old former executive said he would &quot;no longer be held hostage by a rigged Japanese justice system where guilt is presumed, discrimination is rampant, and basic human rights are denied.&quot;
Ghosn had been set to stand trial this coming year in Japan <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/18/11/12722625/renault-nissan-mitsubishi-chairman-arrested-on-trading-violations">after being accused</a> of underreporting his income and shifting personal financial losses to Nissan&#39;s books. The company was accused of involvement in the alleged scheme.
<h3>What Happened</h3>
Ghosn had been jailed in Japan, but was out on bail. He was supposed to be prohibited from leaving Tokyo while out on bail, and under monitoring.
Details about how he left were still murky on Tuesday; Ghosn had to surrender his passport last year to Japanese officials.
Reports in Lebanese media suggested Ghosn escaped in some sort of freight box for musical instruments that was flown out of the country.
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet">Lebanese news outlets saying Carlos Ghosn was smuggled out of Japan in a box designed for transporting musical instruments, this story is incredible <a href="https://t.co/5hxGBUSZhY">https://t.co/5hxGBUSZhY</a>
&mdash; Tom Gara (@tomgara) <a href="https://twitter.com/tomgara/status/1211868223764934656?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">December 31, 2019</a></blockquote>
<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>The Wall Street Journal reported Ghosn arrived in his native Lebanon on a flight from Turkey. Lebanon has no extradition treaty with Japan.
<h3>Alleges Political Persecution</h3>
&ldquo;I have not fled justice &mdash; I have escaped injustice and political persecution,&rdquo; Ghosn&#39;s statement read. &ldquo;I can now finally communicate freely with the media, and look forward to starting next week.&rdquo;
Ghosn&#39;s lawyers have complained that they haven&#39;t been able to adequately inspect information prosecutors in Japan had planned to use against him.
Ghosn rose to prominence in the auto industry in a nearly two-decade career at French tire maker Michelin Compag/ADR (OTC: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/mgddy#OTC">MGDDY</a>) before joining automaker Renault S A/ADR (OTC: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/rnlsy#OTC">RNLSY</a>) in the mid-1990s as an executive vice president.
Ghosn was seen as the main architect of Renault&#39;s alliance with Nissan, where he was sent to cut costs. Since his arrest, he has been removed as chairman of Renault and Nissan.
