Hyundai Motor (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HYMTF#OTC">HYMTF</a>) and Kia Corp are together recalling over 208,000 electrified vehicles in the U.S. citing concerns about a loss of driving power, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) said on Friday.
What Happened: The recall population includes 145,235 Hyundai vehicles and 62,872 vehicles from its sister company Kia. 
The integrated charging control unit in the vehicles may become damaged and stop charging the battery, resulting in a loss of drive power, the U.S. auto safety regulator said. A loss of drive power may increase the risk of a crash, it added. 
The vehicles included in the recall are certain IONIQ 5, IONIQ 6, Genesis GV60, Genesis GV70 Electrified, Genesis G80 Electrified, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/04/38246262/need-a-new-ev-deal-kia-offers-dealers-cash-to-make-room-for-2024-models">and Kia EV6</a>. 
Why It Matters: As for a solution, the company&#8217;s dealers will inspect and replace the charging unit and its fuse if necessary, NHTSA said. 
The company is not aware of any crashes, injuries, fatalities, or fires due to the issue in the U.S.
Earlier this month, Hyundai promoted  Jose Munoz, its U.S. chief and global COO, to<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/tech/24/11/42004380/hyundai-gears-up-for-trumps-return-to-white-house-elevates-us-chief-jose-munoz-to-co-ceo-appoints-former-us-diplomat-to-manage-external-affairs"> the position of co-CEO </a>as part of its strategic preparation for potential challenges that could arise under a second Trump administration.
A second Trump presidency is expected to have a significant impact on the automotive industry, and on EVs in particular with the president-elect promising to impose higher tariffs on imports into the U.S. and vowing to remove incentives for the manufacturing of EVs. 
However, Munoz said in an interview with CNBC on Thursday that the company continues to be optimistic about the future of electric vehicles, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/11/42132485/hyundais-incoming-ceo-is-steadfast-on-evs-says-tesla-ceo-elon-musks-proximity-to-trump-will-be-good-for-industry">irrespective of incentives</a>.

As the U.S. dollar scaled a fresh 52-week high on Friday morning at 108.071 level, former Goldman Sachs FX strategist and senior fellow at Brookings Institution, Robin Brooks said in an X (formerly Twitter) post that, &#8220;Markets initially got this wrong, driving stocks up sharply right after Nov. 5.&#8221;
He added that &#8220;the prospect of tariffs isn&#8217;t obviously good for equities, while it&#8217;s clearly good for the Dollar. More Dollar strength is coming.&#8221;

What Happened: A chart shared by Brooks compared the S&amp;P 500 Index and the Dollar Index during President-elect Donald Trump&#8217;s victory in 2016 and 2024. Measuring the performance of both indices from the day of the election on Nov. 5, the Dollar Index has risen by approximately 3.5%, outperforming the S&amp;P 500 Index, which advanced 2.9%.
Why It Matters: An <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/11/41939162/us-treasuries-edge-up-as-trumps-proposed-policies-possible-rate-cut-may-rekindle-inflation-fears-all-eyes-on-federal-reserves-next-steps">increase in tariffs</a> reduces the demand for imported goods and lifts domestic prices above the free trade price, gradually stoking inflation. This results in monetary tightening affecting the equities in the long run.
However, higher tariffs are positive for the domestic currency as its supply decreases and more money flows into the economy.
What Are Other Analysts Saying: Now that the Dollar Index has surpassed its previous 52-week high of 107.07, &#8220;a break of it may let <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/11/42103600/us-dollar-may-test-10860-level-as-geopolitical-tensions-cautious-fed-rhetoric-and-solid-us-economic-data-may-push-the-greenback-higher-says-expert">it test 108.60 </a>while 105.10 acting as a support,&#8221; said Kunal Sodhani, vice president of the global trading center at Shinhan Bank.
According to him, &#8220;the ongoing geopolitical tensions in the Middle East combined with the strong U.S. economic data and the Federal Reserve's cautious rhetoric on interest rate cuts, may push the U.S. Dollar to new highs&#8221;

Financial guidance and long-term targets The macro and microeconomic environment in which Global Blue operates remains highly favorable. The travel industry is experiencing positive trends, particularly in the high-end segment, and Global Blue has made significant progress in implementing strategic initiatives to further penetrate the market. In parallel, Global Blue has continued to outperform in the luxury market, driven by its unique exposure to affluent and high-net-worth international shoppers. That said, considering the recent luxury market slowdown and taking into account the Group's decision to accelerate €5 million of investments (fixed costs) in future growth initiatives (expansion into new countries, adaptation of Japan's business model and Hospitality Gateway), we have adapted our FY24/25 Adjusted EBITDA guidance to €185 million - $205 million.
Long-term targets include 8-12% revenue growth, &gt;50% drop-through, and a net leverage ratio of &lt;2.5x.
