Support for industry focus comes from our friends at Rocket Mortgage by Quicken Loans,

who are excited to introduce their all new rate shield approval.

If you're in the market to buy a home,

rate shield approval is a real game changer, and here's why.

First, Quicken Loans will lock your rate for up to 90 days while you shop.

But here's the crucial part.

If rates go up, your rate stays the same.

But if rates go down, your rate also drops. Either way, you win.

It's the kind of thinking you'd expect from America's largest mortgage lender.

To get started, go to rocket mortgage.

Welcome to Industry Focus, the podcast that dives into a different sector of the stock market every day.

It's Thursday, August 23rd, and we're doing a quick update on autos.

More specifically Ford, but we'll talk a little bit about some of the other guys because well

really you can't help doing that when you talk about Ford. I'm your host

Michael Douglas I'm joined by John Roosevelt. Now listeners I should mention

that this is pre-recorded as you're listening to this this, I'm in the Outer Banks, likely nursing a

sunburn. So it's distinctly possible. Things will have changed a little bit and there will be a couple

of things that have shifted by the time this gets to you. We're going to do our best to sort of say, so we're recording this on Thursday the 16th, so to say last week when we mean,

you know, when you're hearing it last week as opposed to last week compared to us.

But you know, give us a little bit of grace as we work through that.

John, welcome back to the show.
