Share to Twitter Share to Linkedin While there’s no sign that Tesla owners in the U.S. are going to riot in Tesla stores to protest price cuts like Chinese Tesla buyers , there’s still a significant number who are unhappy. Mostly, those are people who just bought. “$69k no-USS having MYP owner here,” says a recent Model Y Performance purchaser in a Reddit threat , who’s also bemoaning the fact that Tesla recently removed ultrasonic sensors (USS) in favor of vision-driven proximity alerts. “This is wack.” The base price for a Model Y Performance Tesla in the United States is now $49,190, with a potential $7,500 federal tax credit further reducing the price if the vehicle (and buyers) meet certain standards. “Same here man,” another buyer replied. “If I wasn't at work I'd be sobbing in the fetal position right now.” After years of price increases after pre-launch pricing of under $50,000, Tesla is finally dropping prices. Likely, that’s due to … [Read more...] about Tesla Owners Are Not Happy About Price Cuts: ‘Sobbing In The Fetal Position’

DOH reports slight increase in prices of antihypertensive drugs
MANILA, Philippines — Prices of antihypertensive medicines slightly increased due to the rising inflation, as well as the depreciation of the Philippine peso, the Department of Health (DOH) said Wednesday. This was based on the DOH’s price monitoring in December 2022, said Department of Health officer-in-charge Maria Rosario Vergeire in a press forum “Alam naman po natin na mga gamot within the market system, kung saan pag nagkaka-inflation, nagkaka-devaluation ng peso, syempre commodity ‘yan, tataas bababa depende sa pagtaas and pagbaba rin ng peso,” she added. (We know that drugs are within the market system, where there is rising inflation, there is a devaluation of the peso, of course, these are commodities, there will also be adjustments in prices depending on the increase or decrease in the value of the peso.) Despite this, Vergeire said that in general, prices remained the same due to Executive Order (EO) No. 155, which imposed a maximum retail price (MRP) and maximum … [Read more...] about DOH reports slight increase in prices of antihypertensive drugs
Oil prices edge up on strong US economic data, Chinese demand hope
Oil Oil prices edged marginally higher on Friday, extending for a second session on strong U.S. economic data and strengthening hope that the reopening of the Chinese economy would boost demand.

Recovery in marketing margins, lower oil prices to restore OMC profitability in FY24: Moody’s
(Representative image) State-owned Indian Oil Corporation (IOC), Bharat Petroleum Corporation Ltd (BPCL) and Hindustan Petroleum Corporation Ltd (HPCL) are likely to see weak earnings in current fiscal year despite fall in oil prices mainly because of losses they incurred on holding prices in the first half, Moody's Investors Service said on Tuesday. "As international oil prices cool on economic slowdown concerns, marketing losses will ease for the three state-owned refining and marketing companies, IOC, BPCL and HPCL. "Still, overall earnings for fiscal 2023 ending on March 31, 2023 will be weak because of marketing losses in the first half, when net realized prices did not increase as much as international prices because of fuel price caps," it said. The three oil marketing companies (OMCs) did not change prices beginning April 6 despite cost of raw material rising. This led to the three booking a combined loss of Rs 21,000 crore during April-September 2022.

Analysis: Bulog to intervene rice market as prices soar, stocks deplete

Learning from the persistent price increase of rice, the National Food Agency (NFA) has tasked Bulog to conduct year-long market intervention to keep prices of this politically sensitive commodity in check. Medium-grade rice prices increased to Rp 11,300 per kilogram in Jakarta on Jan. 10, 2023, up from Rp 10,000 level per kilo in December 2022 and was even below Rp 10,000 per kilo in November 2022. NFA chairman Arief Prasetyo Adi attributed the price increase to the less optimum market operation by Bulog and lower than expected volume of rice imports.
