(https://www.cnbc.com/2026/09/04/volkswagen-job-cuts-tariffs-china.html) sounds like a market positive. It's not. VW doesn't cut 50,000 jobs because things are fine—it cuts them because tariffs crushed its China margin, EV capex is bleeding cash, and middle-income consumer demand for $40k vehicles evaporated. That's not German efficiency. That's panic. The pattern is identical to what crushed $LULU and $NKE last week.
