Whatever his personal flaws, Elon Musk has been a masterful business builder. Tesla and SpaceX are two of the more successful companies the South African-born entrepreneur has conceived or led. But now Musk has encountered an obstacle both tenacious and effective: Swedish trade unions. Not even the world’s some-time richest man and the world’s most valuable auto brand have been able to dislodge the unions from their long-standing place in the Swedish economy. That’s good news for every country that believes in tempering the market economy with its own national characteristics.

“This is insane,” Musk tweeted on Nov. 23, 2023. He was responding to news from Sweden: The communications workers union had announced that its members would no longer deliver letters and packages to Tesla. That meant, among other things, that number plates for Tesla cars would not be delivered. That, of course, made the cars undrivable.

The communications workers union—known as Seko—was just the latest group to launch so-called sympathy strikes against the American carmaker. The transport workers union had already stopped handling Tesla cars arriving in Swedish ports, and so had the dockworkers union. The electricians union had stopped installing and servicing Tesla charging points. The custodians union had stopped cleaning the company’s facilities. The painters union had announced it was going to stop painting Tesla cars. The construction workers union had announced it would stop work and repairs on Tesla facilities. Since then, Norwegian and Danish labor unions have stopped handling Tesla cargo bound for Sweden and suspended garbage collection at Tesla’s facilities. Since the end of October, more than a dozen unions have launched strikes against Tesla, and the strikes continue.

These workers and their unions don’t have a direct conflict with Tesla: They’ve gone on strike to support their auto-mechanic colleagues who are employed by the global auto giant, because Tesla has refused to allow the IF Metall, which represents a range of groups including factory workers, the right to collective bargaining on behalf of its autoworkers. Tesla’s autoworkers went on strike on Oct. 27 entreaties by IF Metall for collective bargaining went nowhere. (Tesla doesn’t have a Swedish manufacturing plant, but it does have facilities where the cars are serviced.)

Sympathy strikes, where unions suspend work for a company in support of another union, are a powerful but rarely used feature of the Swedish labor market. It is, in fact, a bit of a remnant from a century ago, when Swedish labor market relations were more adversarial than today. For many decades now, however, relations have been largely collaborative. It works like this: Every employer allows trade employees not just to unionize but to represent all its workers, and the unions then negotiate wages and other aspects with the employer on behalf of their worker category.

IF Metall, for example, conducts collective bargaining with Volvo on behalf of the carmaker’s autoworkers, while the custodians union—Fastighets—negotiates with Volvo on behalf of the custodians employed by the company. Under this kind of arrangement, trade unions act with moderation, because the recurring negotiations with the employers allow them to reach agreement on not just wages but also on other issues including sick pay, vacation pay, working hours, termination, and personal fulfillment. Today, Sweden has some 650 such agreements covering 90 percent of the country’s employees.

But Musk doesn’t like unions. “It’s generally not good to have an adversarial relationship between … one group at a company and another group,” he told Andrew Ross Sorkin in an interview on Nov. 29. Indeed, Musk has tried to keep Tesla de-unionized, and that seems to have served him well on American home soil: When the United Auto Workers union targeted the Big Three (GM, Ford, and Stellantis) in a massive strike last fall and emerged with pay raises as high as 89 percent, Tesla could keep turning out its cars, unperturbed by any disruption. When IF Metall tried to get Tesla in Sweden to agree to collective bargaining, the answer came back that such decisions are made by Tesla’s headquarters in the United States.

The autoworkers’ strike, and the massive wave of sympathy strikes that have hit every aspect of Tesla’s operations, followed. “When we take action against an employer that doesn’t allow collective bargaining, it’s typically a small workplace, and we get public opinion against us,” Veli-Pekka Saikkala, a former auto mechanic who leads IF Metall’s collective bargaining, told me. “But this time, people’s view is that big Tesla, which is owned by the world’s richest man, shouldn’t come to Sweden and tell us how to do things.” The issue isn’t just about Tesla’s practices; it’s about protecting Sweden’s business and union norms—and a system that most Swedes are happy with and that has produced an extraordinarily well-performing economy.

Christer Thornqvist, a lecturer in business administration at the University of Skovde who specializes in trade unions, told a Swedish publication that Sweden has seen nothing like it since sympathy strikes against Toys “R” Us in the 1990s. In those delirious early days of globalization, the American toy chain arrived, similarly thinking that it could export its labor market practices along with its goods. But Swedish workers would have none of it. The transport workers union stopped transporting goods from Toys “R” Us; the dockworkers union stopped handling its arriving cargo; Fastighets stopped cleaning its shops and facilities; and eventually the American giant relented.

“The strikes against Tesla are, of course, about Tesla’s workers in Sweden, because they deserve the same rights as other workers in Sweden,” said Laura Hartman, who was until last fall chief economist at LO, Sweden’s blue-collar trade union confederation. “But primarily this is about the Swedish model, which is built on the concept that the labor market parties reach agreements. If companies start deviating from it, this will undermine our system and legislate about many workers’ rights.” Sweden, for example, doesn’t have a minimum wage—because unions and employers jointly negotiate such matters.

Back in the ‘90s, U.S. firms rapidly expanded in a dizzying range of emerging market economies, and expanding there often meant that they could also export their way of doing business. Western European companies did the same. There were other hurdles, to be sure, but a solid collective-bargaining system wasn’t one of them. U.S. foreign policy pursued a similar strategy: Other countries were to become more like America. This wasn’t done with malice. American business leaders and policymakers simply assumed that countries opening up would naturally want to become more like the United States. In those exuberant years, it didn’t occur to most American leaders, or admittedly to leaders from other Western countries, that states might want market economies and even democracy—but done their own way.

“In Sweden, we have very few strikes, and that’s because employers and unions work closely together,” Saikkala noted. “This benefits the labor market. The situation may be different in other countries, but it’s strange to assume that a company can use the same model around the world.” Indeed, Musk seems unaware that Swedish unions are different from American ones. In December, Tesla advertised on its careers page for a person with “a proven track record of getting regulatory changes made in the Nordics” to be based in Stockholm or Oslo. The listing is no longer available, though it’s unclear if this is because the person who’s to force the Nordics to change their generations-old labor market system has been hired—or because someone realized it was a bad idea.

Either way, in the Swedish unions, the world’s some-time richest man has encountered what may be the most maddening hurdle of his career. Even though going on strike is expensive for unions and thus their members, the sympathy strikes have kept accumulating. The fate of a few dozen mechanics has turned into a battle between the softer Nordic model and the unbridled capitalist vision of people like Musk. “All of a sudden, people in Sweden and beyond are learning a lot about collective bargaining,” Hartman reflected. “In the long run, this can strengthen unions in other countries. Small trade unions have a tendency to become militant. Large trade unions like we have in Sweden tend to work more collaboratively with employers, and that model is what’s at risk if companies like Tesla refuse to allow collective bargaining.”

Indeed, Tesla has emerged looking tin-eared, and not just because of the job advert. Rather than giving a few dozen Swedish autoworkers the right to collective bargaining, the world’s by far most valuable automaker is—for example—collecting its trash in vans and using a convoluted way of getting temporary license plates. Now 16 Nordic institutional investors with combined assets of more than $1 trillion have written to Tesla headquarters asking the company to work with the Swedish unions. The Danish pension fund PensionDanmark is even selling its Tesla shares over the dispute. As Billy Bragg sang, “There is power in a union.”

Currency Exchange Today

The RMB index fell across the board, the yen fell below the important index line, and the dollar rose sharply

Raw Trading Ltd

On August 14, the central parity rate of RMB against the US dollar was lowered by 99 basis points to 7.1686. On August 11, the CFETS RMB exchange rate index was 97.47, up 0.01 on a weekly basis.

The People's Bank of China authorized the China Foreign Exchange Trade System to announce that the central parity rate of the RMB exchange rate in the interbank foreign exchange market on August 14, 2023 is: 1 US dollar to RMB 7.1686, 1 euro to RMB 7.8988, 100 yen to RMB 4.9992, and 1 Hong Kong dollar RMB 0.91701, GBP 9.1756, Australian dollar 4.6973, New Zealand 4.3323, Singapore dollar 5.3454, Swiss franc 8.2447, Canadian dollar 5.3883 Yuan, 1 yuan to 0.63687 Malaysian ringgit, 1 yuan to 13.7208 Russian ruble, 1 yuan to 2.6171 South African rand, 1 yuan to 183.44 Korean won, 1 yuan to 0.50803 United Arab Emirates dirham, 1 yuan to 0.51897 Saudi Riyal, RMB 1 to 48.3990 Hungarian Forint, RMB 1 to 0.56081 Polish Zloty, RMB 1 to 0.9419 Danish Krone, RMB 1 to 1.4974 Swedish Krona, RMB 1 to Norwegian Krone 1.4422, RMB 1 yuan to 3.74259 Turkish lira, 1 yuan to 2.3510 Mexican pesos, 1 yuan to 4.8507 baht.

IC Markets

The yen fell to its lowest level this year against the dollar on Monday, breaching the key 145 level, before regaining some ground as traders cautiously looked for cues on possible intervention, while the greenback rallied to a more than one-month peak.

The yen fell to as low as 145.22 per dollar in early Asian trade, its weakest since Nov. 10, before quickly reversing course amid a choppy start to the week. It was last at 144.92, up 0.03%.

Low yields in Japan make the yen an easy target for short sellers and financing deals, while widening interest rate differentials between Japan and the U.S. have contributed to persistent yen weakness.

Japan intervened in currency markets last September when the dollar rose above 145 yen, prompting the Ministry of Finance (MOF) to buy yen and push the yen back to around 140 yen. The yen has fallen nearly 10 percent against the dollar this year.

ANZ analysts said the resilience of the US consumer will be in focus following the release of retail sales data for July, with higher fuel prices and tighter credit conditions expected to have an impact.

The U.S. dollar index , which measures the greenback against six currencies, rose 0.097% to 102.95, after touching a more than one-month high of 103.02

The euro was down 0.12% at $1.0931 and the pound was down 0.15% at $1.2675.

The Australian dollar was down 0.42% at $0.6470 and the New Zealand dollar was down 0.36% at $0.5963. Earlier in the session, both Australian currencies fell to their lowest levels since November. The currencies were weakened by disappointing trade and inflation data from China, the biggest buyer of its resource exports.

Chris Weston, head of research at Pepperstone, said that while sentiment towards China has eased, this week's high-frequency Chinese data may only need a small move to elicit a strong upward reaction in Chinese indicators.

IBM and Maersk Dump Blockchain Supply Chain Project

United States technology company IBM and Danish logistics firm Maersk have decided to discontinue their co-developed blockchain-backed supply chain platform, TradeLens, citing a lack of “global industry collaboration” as a key reason behind the decision.

Maersk stated on Nov. 29 that it has begun taking immediate action to cease operations on the platform, which should take full effect by Q1 2023:

“The TradeLens team is taking action to withdraw the offerings and discontinue the platform [...] During this process all parties involved will ensure that customers are attended to without disruptions to their businesses.”

While the blockchain-based shipping solution was introduced by the two firms in August 2018 to help industry participants adopt more efficient international supply chain practices, Maersk stated the platform didn’t reach a level of “commercial viability” to sustain operations:

“While we successfully developed a viable platform, the need for full global industry collaboration has not been achieved," said Maersk’s head of business platforms, Rotem Hershko. “As a result, TradeLens has not reached the level of commercial viability necessary to continue work and meet the financial expectations as an independent business.”

Maersk said the firm would continue its efforts to digitize the supply chain and increase industry innovation through alternative solutions to achieve the desired ends that were envisioned through TradeLens.

TradeLens functioned by tracking and processing critical supply chain data of each shipment in real-time, before stamping a distributed and immutable record of events on-chain for all involved participants to access and validate.

Watch Out: Copenhagen Flames’ New CS:GO Lineup is Starting to Bear Fruit

Since the departure of the Rasmus "HooXi" Nielsen-led CS:GO team following their playoff run at the PGL Antwerp Major in May, things haven't been easy for Copenhagen Flames. Copenhagen Flames had to press the reset button and look for players that were outside of tier-one because it has significantly fewer resources than its Danish rivals Astralis and Heroic. After a slow start at the beginning of the second half of the competitive calendar, which included not even qualifying for the Europe Regional Major Ranking (RMR) for the IEM Rio Major, Copenhagen Flames are finding their footing. The new lineup led by Thomas “birdfromsky” Due Frederiksen accomplished last week what only a handful of teams have done: they won two CS:GO tournaments in the span of a few days. Copenhagen Flames won CCT Central Europe No. 3 over ex-Team Finest on Friday, Nov. 18 and beat K23 to win European Development Championship season six on Sunday, Nov. 20. These two smaller online tournaments netted the organization $42,000 in prize pool, plus a guaranteed boot camp in Malta. Should Copenhagen Flames manage to keep the lineup of birdfromsky, Iulian “regali” Harjău, Rasmus “raalz” Steensborg, Thomas “TMB” Bundsbæk, and Johannes “b0RUP” Borup for 2023, they could upset some bigger teams and fight for a spot in the BLAST Paris Major. These players survived months of bad results when the project was assembled in the summer player break and are showing signs that they could compete in the higher echelons of CS:GO in 2023 since the year is about to wrap up.
