Chrysler, Ford, GM's July sales best since 2006
ford 
17 minutes ago
Toby Talbot / AP
In this Monday, July 29, 2013, photo, a Chrysler 300 sits on the lot of Midstate Motors in Berlin, Vt. Chrysler, Ford and GM all reported a big jump in auto sales in July.
Despite some signs the U.S. economy may be slowing down a bit, nothing seemed able to halt the resurgent auto industry last month, perhaps because the market?s heavy lifters, full-size pickups, were flying out of dealer showrooms.
While several major makers have yet to weigh in with their numbers, preliminary estimates suggest the month was the industry?s best since July 2006. Detroit makers ? all three of whom posted double-digit increases -- were particularly pleased by the monthly trends, demand for trucks apparently being driven by a housing market revival.
?We continue to see strong retail sales, particularly with our pickup trucks and SUVs, and that has helped to propel Chrysler Group to our 40th consecutive month of year-over-year sales growth,? said Reid Bigland, head of the maker?s Ram brand as well as its U.S. sales chief.
(Read more: Chrysler Earnings Surge 16%, Helps Bail Out Italian Partner Fiat)
General Motors, which has lagged the overall market revival for much of the last several years, posted a solid 16 percent surge for July, while Chrysler and Ford both reported 11 percent year-over-year gains. The latter maker?s F-Series pickups were up by 23 percent, however. But Ford saw even bigger gains at the other end of the model spectrum where its subcompact Fiesta model gained 89 percent.
?Our small cars and hybrids continue to attract new customers to Ford and away from our competitors,? said sales chief Ken Czubay. Ford last month reported that its gas-electric models, including the new C-Max ?people mover? have been running at record levels this year reflecting the growing focus on fuel economy among motorists in general.
While final numbers aren?t in, it appears few, if any, manufacturers will be in the negative category for July. That doesn?t mean some makers won?t have lost ground, at least from a market share perspective. After several years of solid growth, Volswagen sales have been slowing since early spring and the maker reported a modest 3.3 percent jump for July.
According to preliminary data crunching by J.D. Power and Associates and other analysts, the overall industry was expected to have gained as much as 15 percent last month ? roughly double the domestic market?s 7 percent increase for the first half of 2013. Industry sales are forecast to have totaled 1.3 million ? or an annualized rate of 15.8 million.
(Read more: Chevy Impala Named Top Sedan by Consumer Reports)?
Going into 2013, analysts had laid bets that sales would be well ahead of last year?s total of 14.5 million but many are now raising their numbers to 15.5 million and possibly even higher if momentum continues at this pace.
While Nissan may wind up lagging the overall torrid July market pace, with a 10.9 percent increase it nonetheless reported record sales for its namesake brand. The Nissan marque surged 16.8 percent but the highline Infiniti brand slid 33.2 percent, The maker cautioned that Infiniti was caught in a holding period while it waited for the launch of its new Q50 sedan replacing its old G model, the division?s best-seller.
The monthly numbers appear to suggest that consumers, rather than fleets, are driving much of the recovery ? with the exception, perhaps, of the pickup truck market. Notably, GM said its retail sales grew by 23 percent in July.
?For GM, July was the most well-balanced month of the year from a retail sales standpoint: trucks were hot, but so were small cars and family vehicles,? said Kurt McNeil, GM?s vice president of U.S. sales operations.
Ford saw similarly strong surges in retail demand, ?particularly in the coastal regions of the country,? noted sales chief Czubay,

There are any number of factors coming together to buoy the U.S. automotive market. Alec Gutierrez, senior market analyst at Kelley Blue Book, suggested, ?Consumer confidence has played a key role in the ongoing recovery and currently is at the highest level seen since January 2008.?
While consumers may be confident enough to return to showrooms, several recent reports have indicated that looser credit is letting them drive away with new vehicles, and consumers have been stretching purchases and leases out for longer periods.
"Elevated new vehicle transaction prices are being enabled by the availability of longer-term loans, affordable leases and strong used vehicle values, compounded by the availability of low- interest rates," wrote John Humphrey, senior vice president of the global automotive practice at J.D. Power.

Pair of stunts has networks thinking 'Sharknado'
NEW YORK (AP) ? Colliding stunts on Discovery and The Weather Channel next week feel like another "Sharknado."
Discovery is holding its 26th annual Shark Week of programming at the same time The Weather Channel is airing Hurricane Week.
The weather folks can't resist a joke about it, airing a promotional ad that depicts a giant shark flying away in a stiff wind that references both Shark Week and "Sharknado," the Syfy network movie that has become a campy classic this summer.
"If having a little fun with this very serious topic helps get a little more attention, we're all for it," said David Clark, Weather Channel president.
Shark Week is a mixture of fun and science, even including a shark talk show this summer. Discovery's embrace of the week's pop culture status was signaled with the Snuffy the Seal ad that has received more than 5.5 million views on YouTube and the Discovery website.
The ad shows a fake newscast telling a heartwarming story of a seal being returned to his natural habitat. But as the seal is being lowered into the water, a giant shark jumps up and snatches the animal in its jaws. The news crew looks horrified as an announcer says, "It's a bad week to be a seal."
The shark in The Weather Channel ad has something black in its mouth ? could it be Snuffy? ? before being blown away.
A true "Sharknado" collision for the networks would actually come in the spring, when The Weather Channel holds Tornado Week. But it's hard to argue with the weather calendar, and August is about when hurricane season begins in earnest.
The Weather Channel skipped Hurricane Week last year, but the interest in Superstorm Sandy brought it back. Along with boosting viewership during a normally quiet period and reminding people where they should tune when a storm is menacing a coast, the channel hopes to deliver valuable tips on hurricane preparedness, Clark said.
"Sharks as a danger is something that captures the imagination, but hurricanes are a very real danger that affects millions of people every year," Clark said.
The dual stunt weeks didn't seem to thrill the folks at Discovery all that much, perhaps because it's better to have a clear path with less competition.
"We haven't talked to them at all," said Michael Sorensen, senior director of programming at Discovery. "It's interesting that they're putting a stunt week up against ours, especially since ours has a long track record. So we'll see how that goes."
People at Discovery have certainly talked about how the film "Sharknado" fits into Shark Week and have booked the movie's star, Tara Reid, onto its late-night talk show, Sorensen said.
He said he could see the movie influencing future "Shark Week" programming, perhaps with a look at shark horror movies or examining whether there is any science behind the science fiction in the movie.
To a certain degree, though, "Sharknado" is terrific promotion for Shark Week.
"It shows people the curiosity and the fascination that people have about sharks that that kind of thing can be buzzed about," he said.
Meanwhile on Wednesday, Syfy announced the start of a "Sharknado" merchandising program, selling shirts, bags, posters and accessories tied to the movie.

Pentagon review protects weapons for now, but uncertainty abounds
By Andrea Shalal-Esa
WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel's rollout Wednesday of a long-awaited strategic budget review left big weapons programs unscathed for now, focusing more on cuts to Pentagon overhead, compensation packages and troop levels.
But the review did not resolve the budget uncertainties that have plagued U.S. weapons makers for nearly two years, and even cuts in the overall size of the military will result in fewer new equipment purchases in years to come, analysts said.
Hagel told reporters that coming up with $500 billion in budget cuts required by law over the next decade under the sequestration process - on top of $487 billion in cuts already begun - required tough trade-offs between the size of the military and weapons programs.
He said those decisions would be made in coming months as the Pentagon prepared its budget plan for fiscal 2015, with President Barack Obama having the final say.
Top U.S. weapons makers like Lockheed Martin Corp, Boeing Co, Raytheon Co and others have been anxiously awaiting details of the Pentagon's four-month Strategic Choices and Management Review, worried that specific weapons programs might be scrapped to save money.
The companies posted higher earnings for the second quarter as a result of cost-cutting, but many forecast weaker revenues in 2014 and said backlogs were easing as mounting budget pressures began to take their toll.
Hagel warned that choosing size over capabilities would trigger a "decade-long modernization holiday" that could undermine the U.S. military's technological edge and could undermine the defense industrial base.
Preserving the military's ability to project power would entail less onerous cuts in ground forces, ships and aircraft, but would lead to cancellation or truncation of many weapons programs and efforts to beef up U.S. cyber defenses, Hagel said.
If the military chose high-end capabilities over size, it would protect certain programs, including Lockheed's F-35 Joint Strike Fighter, a new bomber and submarine cruise-missile upgrades, as well as cyber operations and special operations forces, Hagel said.
The result would be a smaller, technologically dominant force, that would be able to "go fewer places and do fewer things, especially if crises occurred at the same time in different regions of the world," he told reporters.
'NOT AS BAD AS IT MIGHT HAVE BEEN'
Byron Callan, analyst with Capital Alpha Partners, said Hagel appeared to lean toward the latter option, partly because of the damage that cutting modernization programs would do to the country's defense industrial base.
But even cutting the size of the military could undermine current plans for buying 2,443 Lockheed F-35s, he said.
"The capability option is a positive for slivers of industry, but force structure cuts will reduce the size of the F-35 buy and impact a wide range of other programs," he said in a note to investors.
Todd Harrison, defense analyst with the Center for Strategic and Budgetary Assessments, told Reuters that cutting size in favor of high-end capabilities was more in line with the department's current strategy, and better suited to responding to increasing threats around the world.
"If you focus on capabilities over capacity, that means you can develop the future capabilities that you need to operate in a more contested threat environment," he said.
Loren Thompson, chief operating officer of the Lexington Institute think tank, said the Pentagon did not attack weapons programs as hard during this review because it had already canceled numerous arms programs, including the Army's Future Combat System, or FCS, and an airborne laser, in recent years.
"The Obama administration spent the last four years killing unneeded weapons programs, so now it is left with the programs that are really essential," he said.
He said weapons makers still faced challenges, even if the administration opted to shrink the size of the military since that would result in fewer ships, aircraft and other equipment that needed to be maintained and upgraded.
"This news is not as bad as it might have been. However, if you're going to cut the size of the force and have fewer aircraft carriers or fewer bombers, then obviously companies are not going to be booking as much revenue," he said.

Allegiant adds eight routes in Southwest Florida
- Staff Tampa Bay Business Journal
Allegiant Airlines will almost double its service to Southwest Florida this fall, adding eight new routes to its existing 11 at the Charlotte County Airport.
Sarasota-Bradenton International Airport Director Rick Piccolo sees the elevated competition for his embattled airport, but said there is a bright side.
He told the Sarasota Herald-Tribune the new routes bringing people to Southwest Florida only can help to enlighten people from new areas across the country to the region's charms.
By comparison, Allegiant serves six cities out of St. Petersburg-Clearwater International Airport, according to the Herald-Tribune.
The Las Vegas-based airline?s beefed up service to Punta Gorda will bring thousands of new tourists to the region each year.

Gildan profit jumps as cotton prices decline
(Reuters) - Canadian apparel maker Gildan Activewear Inc
Gildan now expects 2013 earnings to be $2.67-$2.70 per share, up from $2.65-$2.70 forecast earlier.
Analysts on average had expected earnings of $2.68 cents per share, according to Thomson Reuters I/B/E/S.
The Montreal-based company reported a 47 percent jump in third-quarter profit on Thursday. Net income rose to $115.8 million, or 94 cents per share, helped by lower cotton prices and higher sales volume.
Margins improved as cotton prices fell 4 percent to 85.61 cents per pound between April and June.
Profit got a boost also from a favorable product mix for both printwear and branded apparel and better supply chain and manufacturing efficiencies, Gildan said.
The company supplies T-shirts and other basic clothing items to screenprinting companies and makes private-label and branded socks for mass-market retailers.
Gildan, however, has been shifting its focus to its own brands such as Gildan underwear and Gold Toe socks. The company began shipping Gildan underwear in the quarter.
Sales rose 2 percent to $614.3 million but came below the estimates of the company and analysts. Gildan said production constraints prevented it from capitalizing on peak demand season.
Analysts were expecting sales to be $630.3 million.
Revenue from the printwear business fell 4 percent to $433 million but branded apparel sales rose 20 percent to $181.4 million.
The company cut its full-year capital expenditure forecast to $175 million from $200 million due to the timing of delivery of new equipment.

Microsoft forced to rename SkyDrive following trademark case with broadcaster
A UK court recently ruled that Microsoft's SkyDrive name infringed on a trademark owned by British Sky Broadcasting Group (BSkyB), and the software maker has agreed to change the name of its cloud-based service worldwide as a result. In a settlement issued on Wednesday, BSkyB notes that Microsoft will not appeal the court ruling and that the company will allow Microsoft to continue using the brand "for a reasonable period of time to allow for an orderly transition to a new brand."
The agreement includes financial and other terms, but neither BSkyB or Microsoft will disclose the details as the agreement is confidential. A Microsoft spokesperson confirmed the name change in a statement to The Verge. "We're glad to have resolution of this naming dispute, and will continue to deliver the great service our hundreds of millions of customers expect, providing the best way to always have your files with you."
First Metro, now SkyDrive
The name change follows a similar European legal dispute where Microsoft agreed to stop using the term "Metro" for its Windows 8 user interface and applications. Although the case never made it to court, German company Metro AG took issue with Microsoft's use of the word Metro throughout its marketing and branding. BSkyB's complaint centers around the Sky services it provides primarily in the UK, with channels like Sky One, Sky Sports, and Sky Movies.

Junior Olympic Archery Program
The Monument Beach Sportsman?s Club of Bourne offers a Junior Olympic Archery Program. JOAD is a program of USA Archery (a division of the U.S. Olympic Committee) that is designed to teach archery to young people, over a series of classes taught by a certified archery instructor or coach. JOAD offers both recurve and compound archers the opportunity to learn range safety and proper shooting technique in an environment that also fosters focus, increased self-confidence, and team building skills. JOAD is open to any youth archer aged 8 to 20 and is designed to grow with the youth archer.
The club?s introductory JOAD classes teach the fundamentals of proper archery shooting form. As the young archer develops, they will learn more advanced techniques. Both recurve and compound bows are used in club activities and in tournaments. JOAD archers who use a compound bow can train to compete in local and regional tournaments, and can earn a seat on a youth world team to compete in other countries representing the United States on behalf of USA Archery. Recurve archers can compete likewise, with the added benefit of being able to use their recurve bow to try out for a spot on the U.S. Olympic Archery team, which is selected and managed by USA Archery. For more information about the Monument Beach Sportsman?s Club JOAD program or other youth programs offered by the Club, interested parents can visit the Club?s website www.monumentbeachsports.com or contact Garett Pennucci at mbscjoad@gmail.com.
