What BBN said about it

  1. Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorThe Financial Times reports Jaguar is taking a leap into the luxury electric vehicle market with a new model. Vera, bull case. Dale, bear case.

  2. Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorGo.

  3. Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorIt's a gift, Hank. Luxury is the high-margin end of the EV transition. Jaguar isn't chasing the crowd, it's walking in wearing a tuxedo.

  4. Dale Bearman · Chief Skeptic & ContributorA tuxedo at a house fire, Vera. Everyone is crowding into electric luxury, and the competition is vicious. The Financial Times said so itself.

  5. Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorCompetition means demand. Nobody fights over a restaurant with no food. Jaguar is a pedigree cat, and pedigree cats land on their feet.

  6. Dale Bearman · Chief Skeptic & ContributorCats also knock your glass off the table and stare at you. That is exactly what this launch does to shareholders' patience.

  7. Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorLet's keep it civil. Vera, your absurd analogy, please. We're running low on dignity.

  8. Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorA luxury EV is a sauna on wheels. Expensive, silent, and everyone who tries it never wants to leave. That's called pricing power.

  9. Dale Bearman · Chief Skeptic & ContributorA sauna on wheels with a battery bill. Sorry, Vera. This is a soufflé in an earthquake. One bump and the whole thing sinks.

  10. Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorYou called the last nine bull markets a soufflé, Dale. You've never once been invited to the dinner.

  11. Dale Bearman · Chief Skeptic & ContributorAnd you sold your dignity to a candlestick tattoo. Meanwhile the ten-year sits at five point two six nine percent. Borrowing isn't cheap, love.

  12. Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorYields are down point seven nine percent, Dale. Even the bond market is rooting for the cat.

  13. Dale Bearman · Chief Skeptic & ContributorOne day down. I'm keeping my bunker stocked, and the tea is cold out of pure spite.

  14. Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorEnough. The facts are one launch and no sales figures.

  15. Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorMy desk verdict: Jaguar succeeds only if the cup holders are heated and the horn sounds like a purring lion.
