Next week is such a short notice to organize this group of rag-tags into anything:)
But it would be great to grab a cup of coffee w u and possible whoever else wants to join:)
I honestly don’t know if age qualifies being a GenX… it’s more of a mental state Like lack of safe spaces:)
But then again, I’m from last two years of those GenX production run and I’ve seen Millenia starting to complain about being old and GenZ given them hard time about it.
At least we don’t have here Gen Alpha yet
I remember, RVGuy was like USBank and Ally are losing 200k/m because of Cody & Jrouleau toyota Taco/tundra deals, little did they know NMAC would start predicting frontiers would appreciate off the lot, and assigning 101% residuals.
It’s not credit risk, it’s the risk that the value of the vehicles will be much much lower than stated residual value. The ratings agencies are aware of it but as usual they know what their job is so keep stamping their AAA ratings.
In the case of BMW, Could be that they’re expecting that and accepting it, using the major cash influx from 21-22 to “justify” EV losses. I doubt it, but it is possible, since they historically never made those kinds of gains on EV’s. Someone’s going to be left holding the bag, there are definitely 1 year old iX’s that are not far off from the 3 year RV on MMR valuation.
They used to be +/- 4% on average, then in 2021 they start making 22.5% gains on RV, must have been a nice cash infusion, but the lastest report I can find doesn’t mention this same metric, just talks about ESG nonsense and how ICE cars are bad bad bad.
Congrats to all of the new TH’s! Also a big thank you to the former as well, especially those who have always been involved with the daily engagement @mllcb42@max_g. I do hope you guys stick around.
