ZEEKR's Cumulative Deliveries Reached 43,012 In June, With 16,702 From Zeekr And 26,310 From Lynk & Co.

Nvidia Corporation (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) and Microsoft Corporation (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSFT#NASDAQ">MSFT</a>) are poised to become the first companies to reach a $4 trillion market cap, driven by the burgeoning demand for artificial intelligence (AI), predicts Dan Ives, the global head of technology research at Wedbush Securities.
What Happened: Ives credits the impressive comeback of these two tech giants to ongoing innovation in AI and their significant investments in AI infrastructure. He predicts that Nvidia and Microsoft will reach a $4 trillion market cap this summer, with attention soon turning toward the $5 trillion mark within the next 18 months, <a href="https://www.cnbc.com/2025/06/30/analyst-dan-ives-says-it-will-be-the-summer-of-4-trillion-market-caps-for-surging-tech-giants.html">reported</a> CNBC.
Despite a rocky start to the year due to concerns over China export controls and global tariff issues, both companies have seen a significant rebound in their stock performance. This is largely due to the ongoing AI innovation and substantial investments in AI infrastructure. Ives mentioned that Nvidia and Microsoft are &#8220;foundational pieces&#8221; in the ongoing AI revolution.
Both companies are projected to reach the $4 trillion market cap milestone this summer, with the focus then shifting to the $5 trillion mark over the next 18 months. Ives believes that the tech bull market is still &#8220;in its early stages,&#8221; driven by the AI revolution.
The analyst is particularly optimistic about Nvidia&#8217;s impact on the AI ecosystem, estimating an $8 to $10 multiplier effect for every dollar spent on Nvidia across the tech ecosystem.

Why It Matters: In late June, Nvidia&#8217;s stock price hit a new all-time high, with the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/content/46149573/nvidias-stock-price-hits-new-highs-this-is-whats-next">technical outlook </a>remaining robust. This surge was attributed to a combination of factors, including FOMO, results, analyst trends, institutional activity, and short-covering.
CEO Jensen Huang also identified robotics as Nvidia&#8217;s next <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/tech/25/06/46109838/nvidias-next-multitrillion-dollar-opportunity-jensen-huang-sees-great-potential-here-stopped-thinking-of-ourselves-as-a-chip-company-long-ago">major growth</a> opportunity, following AI, at the company&#8217;s annual shareholders meeting.
Microsoft, on the other hand, has been solidifying its position as a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/06/46163176/microsoft-stock-could-soar-44-on-ai-boom-analyst-says-but-theres-a-catch">frontrunner </a>in monetizing AI, driving substantial gains for investors, according to a recent note from the Arora Report. Microsoft&#8217;s stock, on the other hand, could soar by 44% on the back of the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/06/46163176/microsoft-stock-could-soar-44-on-ai-boom-analyst-says-but-theres-a-catch">AI boom</a>.
In the second quarter of 2025, Wall Street&#8217;s tech darlings, including Nvidia and Microsoft, pushed sector benchmarks to one of their strongest quarterly gains on record, reigniting optimism for a continued <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/tech/25/06/46180484/nvidia-palantir-tech-stocks-to-buy-q3-2025-sectors">summer rally</a>.
Nvidia shares have been on a tear, hitting a new all-time high in late June and are expected to continue rising. On a year-to-date basis, the Microsoft stock surged 18.83%.

Billionaire investor Peter Thiel says Elon Musk's plan for "a billion humanoid robots in the U.S. in 10 years" collides with the Tesla chief's alarm over ballooning federal deficits, proof, Thiel argues, that Musk hasn't &#8220;thought through" the proposition just yet.
What Happened: In a recent New York Times "Interesting Times" interview, Thiel recalled telling his longtime friend, "If that's true, you don't need to worry about the budget deficits because we're going to have so much growth," only to find Musk "still worried about the budget deficits."
He added that Musk's anxiety "suggests … there are big error bars around it."

Musk has repeatedly championed mass automation. He <a href="https://x.com/elonmusk/status/1747395624620753355">backed</a> forecasts of one billion humanoid robots worldwide by the 2040s and, at Cannes last year, even floated the idea of 20 billion units globally.

Yet the Tesla Inc.

He warns that unchecked deficits could "bankrupt the country" before robotics eases the fiscal load.
Why It Matters: Thiel's critique lands amid his criticism about technological stagnation and end-times politics, signaling a split on the tech right over whether exponential growth alone can erase red ink. Thiel also revealed that concerns about AI and political interference reportedly thwarted Elon <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/tech/25/06/46162898/elon-musk-stopped-believing-in-mars-dream-as-a-political-project-in-2024-says-peter-theil-amid-woke-ai-and-socialist-government-fears">Musk's Mars political project</a> in 2024, Peter Thiel revealed.

The Congressional Budget Office pegs Trump's bill as a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/05/45558613/house-advances-trumps-sweeping-one-big-beautiful-bill-after-key-medicaid-tax-and-border-security-changes">$2.4 trillion deficit</a> add-on, largely via tax cuts favoring higher earners. Musk insists only "radical productivity gains" will bridge that gap.

S&P Hits Record High At The End Of Q2: Investor Sentiment Improves, Fear Index Remains In 'Greed' Zone

Veteran short-seller James Chanos of Kynikos Associates is once again taking a shot at Strategy Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSTR#NASDAQ">MSTR</a>), calling its valuation framework not just flawed, but absurd.
What Happened: On Monday, Chanos slammed Strategy&#8217;s claim that its valuation should reflect not just the net asset value (NAV) of its Bitcoin holdings, but also a multiple on the unrealized gains, while speaking on Bloomberg&#8217;s Odd Lots podcast.
<figure class="wp-block-image size-large is-resized"><a href="https://www.benzinga.com/premium/ideas/benzinga-edge-2#:~:text=Turn%20Market%20Chaos,when%20markets%20rebound"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="1024" height="146" src="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/01014756/Screenshot-2025-07-01-at-11.17.45-AM-1024x146.png" alt="" class="wp-image-967861" style="width:920px;height:auto" srcset="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/01014756/Screenshot-2025-07-01-at-11.17.45-AM-1024x146.png 1024w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/01014756/Screenshot-2025-07-01-at-11.17.45-AM-300x43.png 300w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/01014756/Screenshot-2025-07-01-at-11.17.45-AM-768x110.png 768w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/01014756/Screenshot-2025-07-01-at-11.17.45-AM.png 1526w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></a></figure>
What pushed him &#8220;into orbit,&#8221; he says, was founder Michael Saylor's argument that appreciation in Bitcoin should be treated like recurring profit, and capitalized accordingly.
See Also: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/crypto/cryptocurrency/25/06/46168953/strategy-adds-4980-bitcoin-ups-total-stack-to-42-billion">Strategy Adds 4,980 Bitcoin, Ups Total Stack To $42 Billion</a>
He went on to mock this logic with an analogy. &#8220;That&#8217;s like saying, my whole net worth is in a house that's worth $400,000 that is now worth $500,000 a year or two later, and my net worth is not $500,000 now, it's $2.5 million,&#8221; he says, underscoring the folly of this argument. &#8220;It is absurd,&#8221; he says.
Chanos also dismissed the broader Bitcoin treasury trend as mere financial engineering. &#8220;There's nothing proprietary here. This is just simply raising capital to buy a financial asset,&#8221; he said.
He further notes that the model is spreading rapidly. &#8220;Since the podcast we last did, I think the number of companies that have announced this strategy is scores more. I think there [are] over 100 in the U.S. and over 200 globally,&#8221; he says.
Why It Matters: Chanos has reiterated several times that Strategy&#8217;s <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/crypto/cryptocurrency/25/06/45943504/short-seller-jim-chanos-reiterates-michael-saylors-strategy-premium-is-unsustainable-warns-bitcoin-arbitrage-is-not-a-static-trade">premium is unsustainable</a>, warning that Bitcoin arbitrage &#8220;is not a static trade.&#8221;
This comes weeks after he revealed a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/25/05/45465049/jim-chanos-goes-long-bitcoin-short-microstrategy-in-arbitrage-bet-against-retail-speculation">strategic arbitrage trade</a>, which involves going long on Bitcoin while selling Strategy short.
&#8220;We&#8217;re buying Bitcoin, selling Strategy stock, an arbitrage play, buying for $1, selling for $2.50,&#8221; Chanos said, adding that he doesn&#8217;t know where Bitcoin is headed, whether $100,000, $1 million, or $10,000, but he does know that &#8220;it&#8217;s generally profitable to short $1 for $2.50 or three dollars.&#8221;
Saylor responded to this by saying, &#8220;I don&#8217;t think he [Chanos] understands what our business model is,&#8221; he says. &#8220;What he still doesn&#8217;t understand is that we are not a holding company or a closed-end trust, we are an operating company.&#8221;
To which Chanos <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/crypto/cryptocurrency/25/06/45877499/michael-saylor-says-jim-chanos-doesnt-understand-strategys-model-criticizes-long-bitcoin-short-mstr-trade-short-seller-hits-back-with-financial-gibberish-remark">promptly hit back</a>, referring to it as &#8220;financial gibberish.&#8221; He said, &#8220;Mr. Saylor wants you to value his business based not only on the net value of his Bitcoin holdings (NAV) at market, but additionally with a multiple on the change in that NAV.&#8221;
Price Action: Shares of Strategy were up 5.30% on Monday, trading at $404.23, and are down 0.63% after hours.

James Chanos Shreds Michael Saylor's Strategy Model Of 'Multiple of NAV' Valuation — Famed Short Seller Says 'It Is Absurd'

On Monday, Microsoft Corporation (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSFT#NASDAQ">MSFT</a>) CEO Satya Nadella unveiled an AI system that outperforms human doctors in diagnosing complex medical cases, signaling a major leap toward &#8220;medical superintelligence.&#8221;
What Happened: Microsoft detailed two major advances: SDBench and MAI-DxO in a blog post titled, "The Path to Medical Superintelligence."
SDBench: This tool uses 304 case studies from the New England Journal of Medicine (NEJM) and turns them into interactive diagnostic simulations. The AI must think critically, ask questions, order tests and weigh the costs—much like a real-life doctor.
MAI-DxO: This is a model-agnostic orchestrator that simulates a panel of virtual physicians. It achieved 85.5% diagnostic accuracy, which is four times higher than experienced human doctors, while also reducing diagnostic costs.

"Excited to share two advances that bring us closer to real-world impact in healthcare AI," Nadella posted on X, formerly Twitter. "Together, these advances offer a blueprint for how AI can help deliver precision and efficiency in healthcare."

Microsoft admitted that this technology isn't ready to be used in real medical settings yet. The "orchestrator" still needs more testing, especially to see how well it handles everyday symptoms and routine cases, the company said.
Mustafa Suleyman, head of Microsoft AI, <a href="https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2025/jun/30/microsoft-ai-system-better-doctors-diagnosing-health-conditions-research">told</a> The Guardian: "It's pretty clear that we are on a path to these systems getting almost error-free in the next 5-10 years. It will be a massive weight off the shoulders of all health systems around the world."
Why It's Important: In the third week of June 2025, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/health-care/25/06/46140911/healthcare-ai-draws-major-funding-bucking-market-uncertainty">investors poured significant capital</a> into AI startups and acquisitions, signaling strong confidence in artificial intelligence despite wider market uncertainty.
Major funding rounds included NYC's Tennr, which raised $101 million to advance AI-driven clinical intelligence and RevelAi Health, which secured $3.1 million for predictive medical tools aimed at better patient outcomes and lower costs.
Data analytics also saw big wins: PreciseDx landed $11 million to expand its AI-powered diagnostic imaging, while Typedef attracted $5.5 million to make complex analytics more accessible for businesses.
Price Action: Microsoft (MSFT) shares edged up 0.30% during Monday's regular trading session but slipped slightly by 0.012% in after-hours trading, according to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard">Benzinga Pro data</a>. The stock has climbed 18.83% so far this year and is up 8.81% over the past 12 months.
Benzinga's Edge Stock Rankings show that MSFT maintains a solid upward price trend in the short, medium, and long term. However, while its momentum remains strong, its value ranking is comparatively weaker. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/premium/ideas/benzinga-edge-4/#:~:text=Turn%20Market%20Chaos,when%20markets%20rebound">More detailed performance metrics are available here</a>.

Satya Nadella Says Microsoft's AI 'Orchestrator' Beats Human Doctors On Tough Diagnoses —  What This Means For The Future of Healthcare

Baidu Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BIDU#NASDAQ">BIDU</a>) has appointed Haijian He as its new Chief Financial Officer (CFO), effective immediately
What Happened: According to Reuters' report, Baidu, a major player in China&#8217;s tech industry, has named Haijian He as successor of Junjie He, who has been serving as the interim CFO since October last year. Junjie He will now take on the role of Senior Vice President.

He&#8217;s appointment comes at a crucial time for Baidu, as the company is navigating through the challenges posed by US sanctions. The sanctions have led to a shortage of <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/asia/25/05/45692725/alibaba-and-baidu-turn-to-chinese-ai-chips-as-us-sanctions-squeeze-nvidia-supply">Nvidia Corp</a> processors, prompting Chinese tech giants like Baidu to turn to domestic chips for their AI development.

The release came as Baidu sought to reassert itself in the global AI race following recent market setbacks. This move made the company a potent player in the AI realm.

Baidu has since recovered, with its stock showing resilience in the face of geopolitical tensions and regulatory challenges. On a year-to-date basis, the stock has risen 3.7%, while in the last month it has gained 3.25%.
Price in Action: According to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/BIDU">Benzinga Pro</a> data, Baidu after closing at $85.76, down 0.43% for the day, saw a slight uptick of 0.10% amounting to $85.85 during after-hours trading.

The Gates Foundation Trust, founded by the billionaire Bill Gates, has a portfolio valued at $41.806 billion, which is concentrated in these three stocks as of the end of the first quarter of 2025.
What Happened: The foundation has received donations from Gates and the Oracle of Omaha, Warren Buffett, since the year 2000 and 2006, respectively. Additionally, it reflects the approaches of both Gates and Buffett.
According to its 13F filings, the three major stock holdings in the foundation&#8217;s portfolio made up at least two-thirds or 66% of the fund&#8217;s holdings as of the first quarter of the ongoing calendar year.

Why It Matters: Microsoft has been under the analyst radar, as it has been receiving recent price target bumps and upgrades.
Microsoft's strategic initiatives, including the integration of Copilot into Office, Dynamics, and Teams, are significantly deepening subscription revenues, explained Nigam Arora <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/06/46163176/microsoft-stock-could-soar-44-on-ai-boom-analyst-says-but-theres-a-catch">in his recent report</a>. 
He added that Microsoft's cloud computing arm, Aruzre, remained a compelling growth driver, exhibiting double-digit growth that is currently outstripping competitors and maintaining healthy margins.
Meanwhile, Wedbush analyst Dan Ives has said that the &#8220;massive adoption wave&#8221; of AI-driven Azure services could propel Microsoft to become a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/06/46108861/microsoft-is-playing-chess-and-others-are-playing-checkers-dan-ives-says-msft-could-be-a-5-trillion-company-in-18-months">$5 trillion company</a> over the next 18 months. &#8211;
Price Action: MSFT shares were down 0.012% in after-hours on Monday after ending 0.30% higher at $497.41 apiece. It has risen by 18.83% on a year-to-date basis and 8.91% over the past year.
Benzinga Edge Stock Rankings shows that MSFT had a stronger price trend over the short, medium, and long term. Its momentum ranking was solid; however, its value ranking was poor at the 13.14th percentile.

Fundstrat Global Advisors Head of Research Tom Lee highlighted Amazon Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZN#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>) as a critical early indicator for U.S. inflation trends, calling the retail giant&#8217;s stable pricing amid tariff pressures a &#8220;meaningful&#8221; signal for market conditions.
What Happened: Lee posted on X Tuesday that Amazon&#8217;s massive import volume positions the company to &#8220;see inflation early,&#8221; making the &#8220;absence of inflation = positive&#8221; for the broader economic outlook. 
His comments responded to Amazon CEO Andy Jassy&#8216;s Monday statement that the tech giant &#8220;hasn&#8217;t seen prices appreciably go up&#8221; despite widespread tariff implementation.
In a CNBC <a href="https://www.cnbc.com/2025/06/30/despite-tariffs-andy-jassy-says-amazon-hasnt-seen-prices-appreciably-go-up-so-far.html?taid=686317f6e9ffab000185e760&amp;utm_campaign=trueanthem&amp;utm_content=main&amp;utm_medium=social&amp;utm_source=twitter">interview</a> with Jim Cramer, Jassy detailed Amazon&#8217;s mitigation strategies against tariff impacts. &#8220;We did a lot of forward buying several months ago, and then a lot of our sellers, our third-party selling partners, forward deployed a lot of inventory to avoid some of the issues with the uncertainty around where tariffs are going to settle,&#8221; Jassy said.

Why It Matters: President Donald Trump has imposed steep tariffs on imports from multiple countries, including China, which serves as a major supplier for Amazon&#8217;s two million marketplace sellers. Jassy noted that seller diversity helps maintain competitive pricing, as many merchants choose to &#8220;take share and not increase prices&#8221; rather than pass tariff costs to consumers.
The inflation commentary comes as recent PCE <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/economic-data/25/06/46137796/inflation-is-heating-up-again-are-tariffs-to-blame">data showed core inflation accelerating</a> to 2.7% year-over-year in May, exceeding Federal Reserve targets. Personal income fell 0.4% month-over-month, marking the first decline since September 2021, while consumer spending contracted 0.1%.
Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell told Congress last week that tariff increases &#8220;are likely to push up prices and weigh on economic activity,&#8221; though effects could be &#8220;short-lived&#8221; or &#8220;more persistent&#8221; <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/economic-data/25/06/46077396/powell-interest-rates-trump-inflation-tariffs">depending on the implementation scale</a>. A &#8220;significant majority&#8221; of Fed officials expect rate cuts later this year if inflation or labor data weakens.

Tom Lee Calls Amazon An Early Signal As Andy Jassy Says No Price Hike Despite Trump Tariffs: 'Absence Of Inflation' Is A 'Positive' Sign

The Trump administration is reportedly lowering its aspirations for comprehensive reciprocal deals. Instead, it is favoring narrower agreements to avoid the reimposition of U.S. tariffs.
What Happened:  The US is now seeking phased deals with key countries, with the aim of reaching agreements by July 9, <a href="https://www.ft.com/content/e268d462-593c-45b1-8cf1-c3d382219dd2">reported</a> the Financial Times on Tuesday. This shift in strategy is a departure from the White House&#8217;s initial plan to secure 90 trade deals during the 90-day pause in reciprocal tariffs announced by President Donald Trump in April.
Under the new plan, countries that agree to these narrower deals would avoid the more severe reciprocal tariffs, but would still be subject to the existing 10% levy while discussions on more contentious issues continue. The administration is also weighing the option of introducing tariffs on key industries. Despite this, the negotiations remain complex, and the administration is still contemplating imposing tariffs on crucial sectors. This two-pronged strategy—combining the threat of new tariffs with a willingness to strike deals—highlights the difficulties negotiators encounter with Trump, who often leverages trade to extract concessions from other nations.
Despite this change in approach, the U.S. has only managed to secure a trade pact with the U.K. and a tentative truce with China. The U.S. Commerce Department has launched national security investigations into a range of products, including copper, lumber, aerospace components, pharmaceuticals, semiconductors, and critical minerals.

Why It Matters: This shift in the U.S. trade strategy comes on the heels of President Trump&#8217;s announcement that he will bypass individual trade agreements and set new tariff rates unilaterally for various trading partners through letters. 
Trump&#8217;s preference for this method was voiced on Fox News&#8217; &#8220;Sunday Morning Futures,&#8221; where he stated, &#8220;We made deals, but I&#8217;d rather just send them a letter, a very fair letter, saying &#8216;congratulations, we&#8217;re going to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/macro-economic-events/25/06/46163141/trump-says-hell-skip-trade-deals-set-global-tariffs-with-a-letter-pay-a-25-tariff-or-20-or-40-or-50">allow you</a> to trade in the United States of America, you&#8217;re going to pay a 25% tariff, or 20%, or 40 or 50%.&#8221;
Meanwhile, French President Emmanuel Macron has criticized the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/politics/25/07/46186877/emmanuel-macron-calls-tariffs-blackmail-white-house-shoots-back-saying-trump-is-doing-whats-right-for-our-people">use of tariffs </a>as &#8220;blackmail&#8221; instruments by powerful nations, without directly naming Trump or the United States. His comments came as the European Union continues negotiations with the U.S. before the July 9 deadline.
Despite the uncertainty surrounding the upcoming tariff deadline, ETF investors seem to be maintaining their composure. While Trump&#8217;s return to tariff diplomacy has reignited diplomatic turmoil and corporate jitters, ETF performances have been surprisingly <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/etfs/broad-u-s-equity-etfs/25/06/46180782/trumps-tariff-clock-ticks-but-taco-traders-arent-losing-their-cool">resilient</a>.
Over the past six months, country-specific ETFs that are linked to halted negotiations, KraneShares CSI China Internet ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/KWEB#NYSE">KWEB</a>) surged 19.53%, iShares MSCI India ETF (BATS:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/INDA#BATS">INDA</a>) rose 4.27% while Global X FTSE Southeast Asia ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ASEA#NYSE">ASEA</a>), climbed 2.13%.

Financial analyst and strategist Tom Lee stated Monday that Ethereum (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/eth/usd">ETH</a>) will play a crucial role in the banking sector&#8217;s future, highlighting the rationale for buying and holding the second-largest cryptocurrency in reserves.
What Happened: During a CNBC interview, Lee was confident that financial behemoths such as Goldman Sachs Group Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GS#NYSE">GS</a>) and JPMorgan Chase &amp; Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/JPM#NYSE">JPM</a>) would use Ethereum to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/25/06/45998961/ethereum-l2-chosen-for-jpmorgans-new-step-in-public-blockchain-space">power their stablecoin offerings</a>.
&#8220;Ethereum is also the architecture that future banks will have. When Goldman issues a stablecoin and JPMorgan doing it on Ethereum, as a Layer-1 blockchain they&#8217;re going to want to secure it by staking Ethereum,&#8221; Lee said. &#8220;We&#8217;re trying to get in front.&#8221;

It also lets users earn rewards in return.
Moreover, due to its smart contract capabilities and its role as a leading platform for decentralized finance applications, it plays a significant role in powering stablecoins.

MSC Industrial Direct, Constellation Brands And 3 Stocks To Watch Heading Into Tuesday

BYD Co. Ltd. (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BYDDY#OTC">BYDDY</a>) (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BYDDF#OTC">BYDDF</a>) has unveiled a new, longer-range trim of the company's best-selling car, the Seagull EV, in China amid the EV price war.
What Happened: The Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) rival unveiled the long-range trim, priced at $11,000 on Monday. The hatchback offers 252 miles of CLTC range on a single charge, with a 38.9 kWh battery pack.
BYD offers the Seagull in 4 trim levels, with the base Vitality trim offered for $7,800 and the range-topping Flying trim available for $11,800. Seagull is also equipped with BYD's God's Eye advanced driver assistance system.
Why It Matters: The news comes in as BYD has been offering aggressive discounts in the highly competitive Chinese auto industry, which is currently <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/topics/25/06/45715047/byds-aggressive-pricing-triggers-ev-rat-race-stock-tumbles-authorities-voice-concern">grappling with a price war</a>.
BYD also recently released the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/tech/25/06/45855643/tesla-rival-byd-launches-15000-seal-06-sedan-as-chinas-ev-price-war-heats-up">Seal 06 sedan</a>, priced at $15,000, positioned squarely against the Tesla Model 3, which it undercuts by almost half as the Model 3 retails for around $30,000 in China.
The company has also been expanding its presence in other markets. BYD recently launched the Seagull EV's Euro-spec version, dubbed the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/25/05/45560953/byds-europe-pivot-in-full-swing-with-new-26000-affordable-ev-amid-tesla-sal">Dolphin Surf EV</a>, which is priced at around $26,000 in the region.
Despite the European expansion, the company has had to deal with some issues, with reports suggesting that the company planned to scale down production, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/asia/25/06/46111314/byd-denies-production-cutbacks-amid-ev-price-war-says-output-remains-stable-report">which BYD denied</a>.
Xiaomi Corp (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/XIACY#OTC">XIACY</a>) also unveiled the company's very first <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/asia/25/06/46132552/telsla-model-y-rival-xiaomi-yu7-suv-receives-nearly-300000-orders-in-1-hour-in-china">all-electric SUV</a>, the YU7, which goes up against the Tesla Model Y in China.
