UBS has raised its delivery forecast from 431,000 to 475,000 vehicles, citing strong US demand linked to the expiring $7,500 EV tax credit, which ends on 30 September 2025.

Contracts for difference (CFDs) are a type of a derivative that lets you speculate on a stock, commodity, forex pair, or index’s price movements – all without owning the asset. You can go long if you think the price will rise, or short if you think it will fall. CFDs are traded on margin, and leverage amplifies both your profits and losses, which increases risk.
