World shares start 2025 with a wobble on Trump trepidation
LONDON/SINGAPORE (Reuters) -World shares struggled for traction on Thursday after a jittery close to 2024, while the dollar weakened as investor sentiment dithered ahead of Donald Trump's return to the White House. The start of the New Year was shaping up to be a less favourable one for European and Asian equities, as uncertainty over the policies of incoming U.S. President Trump and a more hawkish Federal Reserve outlook looked set to dominate market rhetoric for now. Global shares, which had closed out 2024 with a strong annual gain of nearly 16%, clocked a monthly loss of more than 2% in December and ticked 0.1% lower ahead of the Wall Street open.

New car sales in Spain surpass million-mark, sector facing tough 2025
New car sales in Spain surpassed the one million mark in 2024 for the first time since the COVID-19 pandemic, data showed on Thursday, but analysts and industry sources said this should not be seen as a sign of recovery in a sector facing a tough 2025. Changing trends in car usage, high prices, uncertainty around electric vehicles (EVs) and fierce competition from Chinese brands are all expected to create challenges for the auto industry in Spain, said Felipe Munoz, an analyst at market research firm JATO Dynamics. New car sales in 2019 reached well over 1.3 million, but then slumped to around 900,000 annually for the next four years.
