The U.S. Commerce Secretary&nbsp;Howard Lutnick&nbsp;has disclosed that American auto CEOs are in favor of President&nbsp;Donald Trump&#8217;s&nbsp;new trade deal with Japan.
What Happened:&nbsp;&nbsp;Lutnick, in an interview on&nbsp;<a href="https://www.cnbc.com/2025/07/24/lutnick-trump-japan-deal-auto-trade-tariffs.html?ref=biztoc.com">CNBC</a>&nbsp;on Thursday, stated that American auto CEOs have expressed their acceptance of the new trade agreement. The deal, announced by Trump earlier this week, could potentially levy lower tariffs on Japanese car imports compared to vehicles produced by U.S.&nbsp;companies in Canada and Mexico.
Despite objections from the American Automotive Policy Council, a group representing major U.S. automakers such as General Motors (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GM#NYSE">GM</a>), Ford (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/F#NYSE">F</a>), and Stellantis (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/STLA#NYSE">STLA</a>), Lutnick dismissed their concerns. "Oh, my God, that's just so silly," said the Commerce Secretary, emphasizing that there would be no tariffs on the U.S. automakers if they build in America.
Under the new agreement, Japan will face a 15% tariff on cars exported to the U.S., while American automakers will be hit with a 25% tariff on vehicles they produce in Canada and Mexico and bring into the U.S. This has led to a surge in the shares of Japanese automakers such as&nbsp;Toyota&nbsp;(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TM#NYSE">TM</a>),&nbsp;Honda&nbsp;(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HMC#NYSE">HMC</a>),&nbsp;Nissan&nbsp;(OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NSANY#OTC">NSANY</a>), and&nbsp;Mazda&nbsp;(OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MZDAY#OTC">MZDAY</a>).
However, Lutnick maintained that the CEOs he spoke with did not oppose the deal.

Why It Matters: This new trade agreement comes on the heels of Trump announcing a $550 billion trade deal with Japan, which is expected to create hundreds of thousands of jobs. The deal also involves Japan opening its markets to US cars, trucks, rice, and other agricultural products, while agreeing to a reciprocal tariff of 15% on US imports.
However, not everyone is optimistic about the deal. Economist Justin Wolfers argues that the deal essentially results in a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/macro-economic-events/25/07/46622277/trumps-trade-deal-with-japan-a-tax-on-americans-economist-says-not-remotely-optimistic-us-auto-companies-will-gain-as-toyota-and-honda-stocks-rally">tax increase</a> for American consumers. He further states that the narrative surrounding the deal is confusing and misleading.
Moreover, the acceptance of the deal by Japan is seen by some market commentators as a sign of a deeper <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/crypto/25/07/46594681/japan-accepting-trump-trade-deal-a-sign-of-desperation-market-commentator-says-bitcoin-and-gold-have-known-this-for-a-long-time">economic crisis</a>. They suggest that Japan accepted an unfavorable deal involving a $550 billion investment in the US, with the US receiving 90% of the profits.
Following the announcement of the deal, Japan&#8217;s 10-year bond yields surged to 1.59%, a level not seen since 2008, indicating potential economic instability.

Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick Dismisses 'Silly' Concerns Of US Automakers Over Japan Trade Deal, Says They're 'Cool' With It

Economist Justin Wolfers is pushing back against the narrative surrounding President Donald Trump&#8217;s new trade agreement with Japan, arguing that the deal essentially results in a tax increase for American consumers.
What Happened: On Thursday, in a post on X, Wolfers addressed what he refers to as a &#8220;confusion in the reporting&#8221; of Trump&#8217;s latest trade deal with Japan. &#8220;So let me clarify,&#8221; he says, accompanied by a video of his recent appearance on MSNBC.
In the clip, Wolfers says, &#8220;the most important thing for viewers to think about is the framing. So if you began by saying that [the] tariff on Japan has gone from 25% to 15%, it would feel like he'd negotiated a great deal. That's not what happened here.&#8221;

Wolfers notes that the tariffs on Japanese imports were previously just 2%, &#8220;so the biggest thing Trump has done is he's raised taxes on Americans who import goods from Japan from 2% to 15%.&#8221;
The deal's potential impact on U.S. automakers is also in question, as Wolfers pushed back against claims that the deal could open up the Japanese market to American manufacturers. &#8220;I am not remotely optimistic,&#8221; he says, adding that the reason why the Japanese don&#8217;t buy American cars is that they prefer smaller cars.

Why It Matters: Fund manager Spencer Hakimian noted early this week that the announcement of the trade deal <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/market-summary/25/07/46563227/trump-trade-deal-with-japan-sends-toyota-mazda-stock-soaring-nikkei-rises-sharply">sent Japanese automaker</a> Toyota Motor Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TM#NYSE">TM</a>) soaring, despite the 15% tariffs being announced on all imports from Japan. 
He attributes this to the fact that while American automakers have to 50% more for steel and copper, on account of the tariffs, alongside similar tariffs on their production in China, Mexico and Canada, Toyota only pays 15%, and &#8220;they&#8217;re done with all the shenanigans.&#8221;
Japanese auto stocks have been rallying since the trade deal was announced, in sharp contrast to their American counterparts.

Trump's Trade Deal With Japan A Tax On Americans — Economist Says, 'Not Remotely Optimistic' US Auto Companies Will Gain As Toyota And Honda Stocks Rally

<a href="https://asia.nikkei.com/Business/Automobiles/Toyota-supplier-Pacific-Industrial-to-go-private-with-750m-tender-offer" title="https://asia.nikkei.com/Business/Automobiles/Toyota-supplier-Pacific-Industrial-to-go-private-with-750m-tender-offer">https://asia.nikkei.com/Business/Automobiles/Toyota-supplier-Pacific-Industrial-to-go-private-with-750m-tender-offer</a>

'Toyota supplier Pacific Industrial to go private with $750M tender offer' - Nikkei Asia

Shares of Toyota Motor Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TM#NYSE">TM</a>) are surging Wednesday morning after Washington and Tokyo finalized a long-anticipated trade agreement. The deal, which alleviates tariff uncertainty for Japanese automakers, sent the entire sector soaring.
What To Know: The news <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/market-summary/25/07/46563227/trump-trade-deal-with-japan-sends-toyota-mazda-stock-soaring-nikkei-rises-sharply">propelled</a> Japan's Nikkei 225 Index up 3.1%, with auto stocks leading the charge. Mazda Motor Corp skyrocketed nearly 17%, while Mitsubishi Motors Corp also posted strong gains.
President Donald Trump <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/economic-data/25/07/46562556/trump-says-550-billion-trade-deal-with-japan-reached-that-will-create-thousands-of-jobs-there-has-never-been-anything-like-it">announced</a> the $550 billion deal, which includes Japan opening its markets to American agricultural products and vehicles. A key provision establishes a 15% tariff on American imports from Japan, a figure providing automakers with a clear cost structure after months of tense negotiations and threats of higher duties.
According to Spencer Hakimian of Tolou Capital Management, the 15% tariff is paradoxically advantageous for companies like Toyota. He <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/market-summary/25/07/46563227/trump-trade-deal-with-japan-sends-toyota-mazda-stock-soaring-nikkei-rises-sharply">noted</a> that American automakers still face a complex web of tariffs on raw materials like steel and copper, as well as on vehicles and parts from Canada and Mexico.
"Toyota only has to pay 15% more and they're done with all the shenanigans," Hakimian stated. He suggests the deal gives Japanese automakers a competitive edge by simplifying their tariff obligations, even as it aims to bolster American manufacturing.
Benzinga Edge Rankings: According to <a href="http://benzinga.grsm.io/register174">Benzinga Edge</a> stock rankings, Toyota showcases exceptional fundamentals despite its recent price performance. The automaker scores remarkably high on key long-term metrics, boasting a Value score of 98.78 and a Quality score of 97.64. 
This combination suggests the stock is considered significantly undervalued while maintaining strong financial health. Its Growth score is also robust at 87.22, indicating solid growth prospects. 
In contrast, its Momentum score lags at a low 24.66, reflecting that the stock&#8217;s price had been underperforming the broader market prior to Wednesday&#8217;s trade-deal-driven rally.
Price Action: According to data from <a href="https://benzinga.grsm.io/register174">Benzinga Pro</a>, TM shares are trading 13.1% to $192.23 Wednesday morning. The stock has a 52-week high of $201.00 and a 52-week low of $155.00.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">How To Buy TM Stock</h2>
By now you're likely curious about how to participate in the market for Toyota Motor &#8211; be it to purchase shares, or even attempt to bet against the company.
Buying shares is typically done through a brokerage account. You can find a list of <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/best-stock-trading-platforms">possible trading platforms here.</a> Many will allow you to buy &#8220;fractional shares,&#8221; which allows you to own portions of stock without buying an entire share.
If you're looking to bet against a company, the process is more complex. You'll need access to an options trading platform, or a broker who will allow you to &#8220;go short&#8221; a share of stock by lending you the shares to sell. The process of shorting a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-short-a-stock">stock can be found at this resource.</a> Otherwise, if your broker allows you to trade options, you can either buy a put option, or sell a call option at a strike price above where shares are currently trading &#8211; either way it allows you to profit off of the share price decline.

Trump Just Announced A Trade Deal With Japan. Why This Automotive Stock Is Rallying

Even with shares down 12% this year, Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) still carries an <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/report/TSLA">out-of-this-world price-to-earnings ratio</a> of 189x. That's not just lofty—it's meme-level.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Tesla's Valuation Is Still From Another Planet</h2>
For context, Microsoft Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSFT#NASDAQ">MSFT</a>) and Amazon.com Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZN#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>) sit around 39x and 37x (per <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pro/register?utm_adType=bzprocontent&amp;utm_campaign=14daytrial&amp;utm_ad=0723">Benzinga Pro</a> data), while Toyota Motor Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TM#NYSE">TM</a>) and General Motors Co (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GM#NYSE">GM</a>) trade at just 7 times earnings. Somehow, Tesla is still priced like it&#8217;s leading a future that hasn't quite arrived.
That future was easier to believe in back in 2020, when Tesla shares soared nearly 700% and the company truly dominated the EV narrative. But the landscape has shifted &#8211; and fast.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Competition Isn't Creeping—It's Sprinting</h2>
On Tuesday, GM reported that its electric vehicle sales surged 111% year-over-year in the second quarter. Sure, it's off a smaller base, but the trajectory is undeniable. 
Meanwhile, Tesla's own second-quarter vehicle sales fell 14%. In a market that once gave Tesla credit for being the only EV in town, that's a glaring reversal.
GM isn't the only challenger. Chinese automakers are rapidly scaling up production and expanding their global reach, offering more affordable alternatives with comparable technology. Tesla no longer feels like a monopoly. It feels like a frontrunner being caught from all sides.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Can Hype Still Outrun The Numbers?</h2>
Elon Musk is still Elon Musk—and few CEOs can spin a narrative quite like him. He's teased robotaxis, humanoid robots, and full autonomy as Tesla's next growth engine. But with <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/TSLA/earnings">each sales miss</a>, the pressure mounts to deliver something—anything—that justifies the valuation.
Tesla's earnings call on Wednesday may offer another round of ambitious promises. But this time, with competitors closing in and fundamentals weakening, even the meme premium may need a reality check.
For now, Tesla is still trading like it's 2020. The rest of the EV world, however, is firmly in 2025.
TSLA Price Action: Tesla shares were up 0.31% at $333.13 on Wednesday, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pro/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">according to Benzinga Pro.</a>

GE Vernova Posts Better-Than-Expected Earnings, Joins Thermo Fisher Scientific, Lennox International, General Dynamics And Other Big Stocks Moving Higher On Wednesday

Toyota Motor Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TM#NYSE">TM</a>) just got a market-moving gift &#8211; and it came courtesy of U.S. trade policy. After the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/donald-trump">Donald Trump administration</a> unveiled a new 15% tariff on imported vehicles, Toyota's stock surged 8%. 
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Tariff Math That Favors The Competition</h2>
Why? Because while Toyota gets away with a flat 15% hike, American automakers like Ford Motor Co (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/F#NYSE">F</a>), General Motors Co (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GM#NYSE">GM</a>), and Tesla Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) are staring down a tangled—and far more expensive—tariff mess.
Ford and GM aren't just dealing with the vehicle import tariff, pointed out Spencer Hakimian <a href="https://x.com/SpencerHakimian/status/1947821113792201034">on</a> X. They're also absorbing 50% more for steel and copper, 25% tariffs on parts from Canadian and Mexican factories, and a 55% hit on components sourced from China. 
Tesla, with its global supply web, doesn't escape the squeeze either.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">An ‘America First' Policy That Backfired?</h2>
What was meant to be a policy to bring auto jobs back to U.S. soil may end up doing the opposite &#8211; by raising input costs for American carmakers while giving Toyota a relatively cleaner ride. 
Ironically, Toyota's more consolidated and diversified supply chain, with more U.S.-based manufacturing than some of its American rivals, positions it to weather the new rules better.
The optics are stark: a Japanese automaker rallying on a trade policy designed to promote American industry, while Detroit's giants get slapped with compounding costs.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Wall Street Is Already Picking Sides</h2>
The market's response was swift. Toyota popped. Ford and GM barely budged. Tesla continues to navigate a different narrative altogether, but even it can't dodge the rising cost of essential materials.
For investors, the takeaway is clear: in the short term, tariff policy isn&#8217;t just a political tool &#8211; it&#8217;s a stock catalyst. And right now, Toyota&#8217;s the one shifting into high gear.

Trump Just Hammered US Cars With Tariffs - Toyota Says Thanks

Shares of US-listed Japanese stocks are trading higher after President Trump announced a trade deal with Japan.

As President Donald Trump announced 15% tariffs on Japanese imports after reaching an agreement with Japanese officials, shares of some of Europe's top automakers rallied, hoping for similar breakthroughs.
What Happened: Shares of German automakers Bayerische Motoren Werke AG (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BAMXF#OTC">BAMXF</a>), Volkswagen AG (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/VWAGY#OTC">VWAGY</a>) and Mercedes-Benz Group AG (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MBGYY#OTC">MBGYY</a>) were all up 5% following the news.
Meanwhile, Stellantis NV's (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/STLA#NYSE">STLA</a>) shares soared 7.1% in the European market as well. The Stoxx Europe autos index also rose 4.2% following the news, the report suggests.
However, Rella Suskin, Equity Analyst at Morningstar, according to a CNBC <a href="https://www.cnbc.com/2025/07/23/autos-us-japan-trade-deal-raises-hopes-of-an-eu-tariff-breakthrough.html">report</a>, said it&#8217;s "impossible to predict" whether a similar breakthrough could be reached with other regions like the EU, but it could prove to be difficult as the "figures do not come close to Japan's commitment," Suskin said. 
"EU negotiators have also proposed removing their 10% duties on US car exports if the U.S. reduces its duties on the sector to below 20%," Suskin said.
Why It Matters: The news comes as Trump said <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/economic-data/25/07/46562556/trump-says-550-billion-trade-deal-with-japan-reached-that-will-create-thousands-of-jobs-there-has-never-been-anything-like-it">the deal with Japan</a>, worth $550 billion, "will create Hundreds of Thousands of Jobs," with 90% of the profits going to the U.S.
Trump's trade deal with the country has <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/market-summary/25/07/46563227/trump-trade-deal-with-japan-sends-toyota-mazda-stock-soaring-nikkei-rises-sharply">sent the stocks</a> of companies like Toyota Motor Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TM#NYSE">TM</a>), Mazda Motor Corp. (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MZDAY#OTC">MZDAY</a>), etc. soaring, with the Nikkei and Topix indices up 3.10% and 2.71% respectively.
Elsewhere, General Motors Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GM#NYSE">GM</a>) announced its <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/07/46564633/gm-says-chevy-is-now-the-no-2-ev-brand-in-us-4-billion-factory-push-to-offset-trump-tariffs">quarterly earnings report</a> for the second quarter of 2025 and said it would be offsetting at least 30-40% of the additional costs due to Trump's tariffs.

Both the Nikkei and Topix indices are up 3.10% and 2.71%, trading at 41,006.00 and 2,912.98, respectively, led by auto stocks. Mazda Motor Corp. (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MZDAY#OTC">MZDAY</a>) leads the way, up 17%, followed by Mitsubishi Motors Corp.

According to Spencer Hakimian of Tolou Capital Management, Japanese automakers like Toyota are surging on news of a 15% tariff, because they can now sidestep the tariff issues plaguing their American counterparts, such as those on steel, copper, and their regional production.
&#8220;Toyota only has to pay 15% more and they&#8217;re done with all the shenanigans,&#8221; he says, while adding that the U.S. has given Japanese automakers an advantage over local players, all in hopes of &#8220;bringing auto jobs back to America.&#8221;

'A Flying Taxi Finally Nears Takeoff With an Unlikely Boost From Toyota'- The Information

Tesla, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>)&nbsp;is reportedly preparing to introduce a longer, six-seat version of its Model Y sport utility vehicle in China.
The news comes after Tesla reported a&nbsp;<a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/asia/25/07/46289899/tesla-china-sales-plunge-over-75-in-first-week-of-july-despite-strong-q2-deliveries" rel="noreferrer noopener">75% plunge in sales</a> in China during the first week of July as the company recorded<a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/tech/25/07/46409821/tesla-rebounds-in-china-with-12-3k-weekly-registrations-highest-2nd-week-ever" rel="noreferrer noopener"> 5,010 insured registrations.</a>
Bloomberg reports, citing data from the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology's <a target="_blank" href="https://www.miit.gov.cn/datainfo/cpgg/art/2025/art_4efe58701e4b4d3da9d1ff4b0ad9951f.html" rel="noreferrer noopener">website</a>, that the vehicle will be about 150 centimeters (5.9 inches) longer than the existing Model Y.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Analyst Opinion</h2>
Goldman Sachs analyst&nbsp;Mark Delaney&nbsp;<a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/TSLA/analyst-ratings" rel="noreferrer noopener">reiterated a Hold</a> rating on Tesla and set a price forecast of $285 on Thursday.
Delaney&nbsp;expressed optimism about Tesla's Model YL, a new variant of the Model Y, which will likely boost the company's position in the three-row SUV market.
Announced on July 16, the Model YL is about 7 inches longer and 1.5-2 inches taller than the current Model Y, which should make it a more viable option for families needing a three-row SUV, per the analyst.
He noted that the Model Y currently offers a third row, but its limited space makes it suitable mainly for children.
In contrast, the Model YL will likely feature six seats and is positioned to compete effectively in the SUV market in the U.S., Europe, and China, Delaney&nbsp;noted.
While Tesla has not disclosed the exact price for the Model YL, reports suggest it will be priced around 400K Chinese yuan ($37,000), as per the analyst. For context, he noted that the U.S. Model Y starts at approximately $45,000, while the Model X starts at $90,000.
The pricing of the Model YL puts it in direct competition with other three-row SUVs in the market, like the Toyota (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TM#NYSE">TM</a>) Highlander and the Ford (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/F#NYSE">F</a>) Explorer, which both start around $40,000 in the U.S. Tesla's new offering could attract customers who want a larger vehicle without stepping up to the more expensive Model X, Delaney&nbsp;said.
The analyst noted that Tesla will likely deliver 30,000 units of the Model YL in 2025, with an anticipated 175,000 units in 2026 and 375,000 units in 2027.
He writes that the company's overall delivery projections for 2025, 2026, and 2027 are 1.594 million, 1.865 million, and 2.15 million, respectively. Delaney&nbsp;noted this new model will help Tesla to capture the three-row SUV segment better, especially as the company seeks to expand its market share in the U.S. and Europe, where the mid-sized SUV market accounted for 19% of total vehicle units in the U.S. last year.
As per the analyst, Tesla's focus on creating a more differentiated product with the Model YL contrasts with initial investor expectations, which leaned toward a cost-reduced or slightly smaller version of the Model Y.
The announcement has already positively impacted Tesla's stock, with the shares rising 3.5% on July 16, outperforming the flat S&amp;P 500, he noted. Delaney said that this release is a strategic step to address growing demand in key regions, including the U.S., where SUVs dominate vehicle sales. Additionally, the analyst added that Tesla is expected to launch a lower-cost variant of the Model Y or 3 this year, which could further enhance its competitive edge.
Delaney projected fiscal 2025 revenue of $89.64 billion and EPS of $1.00.
Price Action:&nbsp;TSLA stock was down 0.94% at $318.66 at the last check Thursday.

Tesla's Model YL Takes On Toyota And Ford: Analyst

Joby Aviation (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/JOBY#NYSE">JOBY</a>), a pioneer in electric vertical takeoff and landing (eVTOL) aircraft, has seen its stock price surge, reflecting growing investor confidence in its commercialization prospects.
The stock has climbed 92% year-to-date and a remarkable 169% in the last three months, significantly outperforming the NYSE Composite Index, which gained 7% and 11% respectively over the same periods.
Joby initially entered the public market in 2021 through a Special Purpose Acquisition Company (SPAC) merger. The company currently generates most of its revenue from flight services under U.S. government contracts and early commercial operations, particularly with the Air Force.
Also Read: <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/long-ideas/25/07/46363784/boeing-joby-aviation-oracle-and-a-health-care-stock-cnbcs-final-trades" rel="noreferrer noopener">Boeing, Joby Aviation, Oracle And A Health Care Stock: CNBC&#8217;s &#8216;Final Trades&#8217;</a>
However, Joby&#8217;s long-term strategy centers on a significant revenue expansion through the launch of commercial air taxi services using its eVTOL aircraft.
This ambitious plan is now being underpinned by substantial progress in manufacturing and a supportive regulatory environment. The stock&#8217;s recent ascent of over 61% in the past 30 days highlights the positive market reaction to these developments.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Bolstering Production Capacity</h2>
Joby&#8217;s stock received a notable boost on Tuesday following the announcement of <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/movers/25/07/46419322/joby-stock-is-moving-higher-tuesday-whats-going-on" rel="noreferrer noopener">expanded manufacturing operations</a> at its facilities in California and Ohio, alongside the addition of new aircraft to its fleet.
The company has effectively doubled its production capacity at the Marina, California site, which now spans 435,500 square feet.
Concurrently, operations have been ramped up at its Dayton, Ohio facility, focusing on the production and testing of aircraft components.
This expansion is crucial for Joby&#8217;s push towards scaling commercial operations. The Marina site is projected to produce up to 24 aircraft per year, a significant step towards mass production.
Furthermore, this facility will serve as a hub for flight testing, pilot training, and critical Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) certification processes.
Eric Allison, Joby&#8217;s Chief Product Officer, emphasized the company&#8217;s readiness for rapid scaling, noting the swift airworthiness certification of their sixth aircraft just one week after its completion.
Joby also plans to leverage the renowned manufacturing expertise of Toyota Motor (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TM#NYSE">TM</a>), a key investor, to eventually build up to 500 aircraft annually at the Dayton facility.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Regulatory Tailwinds Propel Growth</h2>
The positive momentum in Joby&#8217;s stock has been further amplified by a favorable shift in the regulatory landscape. On June 11, President Donald Trump&#8217;s <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/06/45896929/trump-launches-aviation-overhaul-archer-joby-new-horizon-aerovironment-rally-as-us-targets-drone-evtol-supersonic-comeback" rel="noreferrer noopener">new executive orders</a>, aimed at reasserting America&#8217;s aviation leadership, provided a significant boost.
These orders seek to streamline regulatory processes and include initiatives like the eVTOL Integration Pilot Program, designed to accelerate the commercial deployment of electric air taxis.
This move triggered a rally across aviation stocks, with Joby shares rising over 2% immediately after the announcement. The White House&#8217;s commitment to fostering domestic drone and eVTOL development directly aligns with Joby&#8217;s mission, potentially expediting its market entry and unlocking substantial long-term growth opportunities across defense, cargo, and urban mobility sectors.
Adding to this regulatory support, in June, FAA Acting Administrator Chris Rocheleau publicly <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/movers/25/06/46125984/why-joby-and-archer-aviation-shares-are-soaring-thursday" rel="noreferrer noopener">reaffirmed the agency&#8217;s</a> dedication to the safe integration of electric air taxis into U.S. airspace.
This statement served as a vital regulatory endorsement for Joby, which is actively developing a five-seat electric aircraft for global passenger service, backed by strategic partners such as Toyota and Delta Air Lines (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DAL#NYSE">DAL</a>).
The FAA&#8217;s clear stance reinforces Joby&#8217;s path to commercialization as it spearheads the transformation of urban transportation.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Expert Insights</h2>
Recent expert opinions and company milestones further underscore Joby&#8217;s promising trajectory. A Hunterbrook Media report last week <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/tech/25/07/46374434/joby-aviation-stock-goes-vertical-as-secret-massive-drone-achieves-9-hour-flight" rel="noreferrer noopener">indicated significant progress</a>, claiming Joby has discreetly begun testing a long-range, hydrogen-powered Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) dubbed the JAI 30.
While Joby has not officially confirmed this project, flight tracking data, though briefly accessible online before being removed at the company&#8217;s request, suggested the JAI 30 has already completed a flight exceeding nine hours, positioning it among the longest-endurance hydrogen UAVs in its class.
Another notable endorsement came last week from Joshua Brown, co-founder and CEO of Ritholtz Wealth Management, who selected Joby as his <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/long-ideas/25/07/46363784/boeing-joby-aviation-oracle-and-a-health-care-stock-cnbcs-final-trades" rel="noreferrer noopener">&#8220;final trade&#8221;</a> on CNBC.
This pick followed Joby&#8217;s recent announcement on June 30 of successfully completing piloted vertical takeoff and landing flights of its electric air taxi in Dubai.
This achievement marks a crucial step toward launching commercial service in the region by 2026, a development that saw the stock <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/movers/25/06/46172967/why-joby-aviation-stock-hit-a-new-52-week-high-today" rel="noreferrer noopener">reach</a> its 52-week high.
In July, <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-stock-ratings/analyst-color/25/07/46243448/cramer-doesnt-recommend-titan-international-joby-aviation-soars-after-milestone-flight" rel="noreferrer noopener">when questioned about Joby</a>, CNBC&#8217;s Jim Cramer expressed confidence, stating, &#8220;Archer (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ACHR#NYSE">ACHR</a>) and Joby, what can I say? I&#8217;m not going to fight them.&#8221;
Price Action: JOBY stock is trading higher by 15.1% to $15.98 at last check Wednesday.

<h3>Why Short Interest Matters</h3>
Short interest is the number of shares that have been sold short but have not yet been covered or closed out. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-short-a-stock?adType=benzinga-insights&amp;ad=short-interest&amp;campaign=wallstreetadvantage">Short selling</a> is when a trader sells shares of a company they do not own, with the hope that the price will fall. Traders make money from short selling if the price of the stock falls and they lose if it rises.
Short interest is important to track because it can act as an indicator of market sentiment towards a particular stock. An increase in short interest can signal that investors have become more bearish, while a decrease in short interest can signal they have become more bullish.

Peer comparison is a popular technique amongst analysts and investors for gauging how well a company is performing. A company's peer is another company that has similar characteristics to it, such as industry, size, age, and financial structure. You can find a company's peer group by reading its 10-K, proxy filing, or by doing your own similarity analysis.
According to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pro/">Benzinga Pro</a>, Toyota Motor's peer group average for short interest as a percentage of float is 8.30%, which means the company has less short interest than most of its peers.
