Podcast: Howes on tale of two profits

Daniel Howes

Detroit News Columnist Daniel Howes and Michigan Radio are partners in weekly essays examining what's hot in Michigan business and politics – and what it all means. This week, Howes says third-quarter profits at Tesla Inc. and Ford Motor Co. open a window on how Wall Street views Detroit -- and it ain’t so good. The difference is who’s more likely to be ready for the future. And the answer from investors seems pretty clear … not Detroit.
