On Friday, a Bloomberg article suggested Renault SA (RNO FP) is considering selling some of its 43% stake in Nissan Motor (7201 JP) to help fund its efforts in EVs.
Sources were "people familiar with the matter." Since 2018, Bloomberg and Les Echos have been the outlets which do "scoops" on the Renault/Nissan relationship, but they are not always right.
However, it raises some interesting questions and possibilities. And given the prices, it makes the decision somewhat uncomfortable for both.
