On July 14, the Royal Bank of Canada said that in the United States, the cost increase caused by the increase in tariffs will eventually be borne by American consumers. However, this part of the cost may be distributed to the entire supply chain, such as transportation companies, wholesalers/manufacturers/retailers, and only a part of it will be transmitted to consumer prices in the end. It is expected that the annual rate of the overall US CPI will rise from 2.4% in May to 2.6% in June, a monthly increase of 0.3%; the core monthly rate is expected to rise by 0.2%, and the annual rate is expected to rise to 2.9%.Nissan Motor Co. may build Honda Motor Co.s pickup trucks at its U.S. plants.South Koreas trade minister: Discussions with the U.S. on cooperation in key industrial sectors have made "significant progress."South Koreas trade minister: It is possible to reach a trade agreement in principle with the United States before the August 1 deadline.Hong Kong-listed nuclear power stocks strengthened again, with CNNC International (02302.HK) rising more than 22%, CGN Mining (01164.HK) and CGN Power (01816.HK) rising more than 3%, and CGN New Energy (01811.HK) rising more than 1.5%.

DoorDash Increases Its Core Growth Objective For 2022 After A 35% Increase in Sales

DoorDash Inc increased its full-year projection for a key industry statistic on Thursday, signaling that it has largely avoided the staffing shortages that have afflicted the majority of industries in order to provide seamless food and grocery delivery.


DoorDash's stock jumped 9% after the company also posted a better-than-expected 35% increase in quarterly sales, allaying investor fears that an easing epidemic would encourage people to dine out more and order in less.


The company's reputation as a facilitator of the gig economy has aided in attracting a consistent supply of delivery agents, in contrast to Domino's Pizza (NYSE:DPZ) and Pizza Hut, which have battled to sustain their fleets of riders in a difficult labor market.


DoorDash has retained its delivery workers in part because it has taken steps to alleviate the burden of rising gas costs by paying cash back and streamlining the process of working with the firm, according to CFO Prabir Adarkar.


The business now anticipates a gross order value of $49 billion to $51 billion for 2022, up from a previous range of $48 billion to $50 billion.


"Convenience is important to consumers. They like the convenience of having food and things delivered directly to their front door. As they begin to use the product, they develop a habit and gradually increase their usage "As Adarkar stated.


According to YipitData, DoorDash increased its market share in the US meal delivery business by one percentage point to 57% in March, while Grubhub lost momentum.


However, DoorDash's loss per share increased to 48 cents in the first quarter, up from 34 cents a year ago, as the company spent extensively in growing its grocery and other necessities delivery network and international expansion.


For the quarter ending March 31, revenue was $1.46 billion. According to Refinitiv's IBES data, analysts expected a loss of 41 cents per share on sales of $1.38 billion.
