newsweek has a very interesting and clear article about the discussed fusion of chrysler and gm, a commentary that portrays this idea as an idiotic. there are so many commonalities in production and development, which would strongly negatively affect the labour market. chrysler has as valuable parts jeep and minivans, both on a descending point. therefore the author suspects that this is either a pr-stunt, which is of the strong problem to distract with the borrowing of credits related to the financial crisis, or that gm is mainly interested in chrysler’s reserves – and by cerberus maybe even gets some money on top. lieb gruss oli
