Speaking to investors after Volkswagen reported results for the first half of 2025, Blume said he hopes for a well-balanced deal between the U.S. and the European Union.
Volkswagen’s American Depository Receipts were trading 0.7% lower at the time of writing. Stocktwits data showed the sentiment around Volkswagen’s ADRs was in the ‘bullish’ territory.
