Honda to Halt UK Production to Counter Possible Disruption
Read MoreHide Full Article
Honda Motor Co., Ltd. (HMC - Free Report) announced that it will halt its operations in Britain for six days in April 2019, per Reuters. This Japanese auto giant took this step to counter possible disruptions, arising from the U.K.’s exit from the European Union.
Importantly, in case the U.K. leaves European Union without a trade deal, the production process of automakers will be severely hurt as these companies are heavily dependent on persistent delivery of auto parts for the production process.
In fact, Honda has been evaluating possible ways to deal with logistics and cross-border troubles, generating from the U.K.’s exit from the European Union on Mar 29, 2019. In order to ensure that this automaker is well-positioned to withstand all the possible outcomes, the company will shut U.K. production for six days in April.
Honda currently sports a Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy). In the second quarter of fiscal 2019, the company reported consolidated profit of ¥210.7 billion, up 21.2% from the year-ago period.
Honda has outperformed the industry it belongs to in the past six months. The company’s shares have gained 0.4% against 15.3% decrease recorded by the industry.
Volvo has an expected long-term growth rate of 15%. Over the past month, shares of the company have gained 6.9%.

And this outperformance has not just been a recent phenomenon. Over the years it has been remarkably consistent.
