VW Considers US Exit Amidst Tariff Concerns, Ponders Canadian Investment
Volkswagen is reportedly reconsidering plans for a significant Audi factory in the United States, attributing the decision to President Trump’s automotive tariffs. The company’s CEO disclosed that these levies resulted in a $2.5 billion loss during the initial nine months of 2025. German investments in the US experienced a substantial 45% year-on-year decrease during the same period. Following Trump’s warnings of potential further tariffs, and growing global trade uncertainty, the price of gold reached an unprecedented level.
