Resistance is futile

Resistance is futile....sounds like a Borg Warning

Um...I thought that was why he said it that way.

But then, I'm a Trekkie, so...

I don't think that's all that interesting of an observation. GM literally has borrowed all it can, and Ford has too. The market is really forced to accept that, if the bank says so. Does that make sense? If I borrow all the bank will let me, then my net worth has gotta be near zero. The bank says so, and everybody else better go along.

The deciding factor is not the markets, it's when the bank starts getting scared.

Sometimes it makes one wonder, Natalie....We have seen people like Donald Trump get up projects in which he risks none of his money, and when they fail (as happened a few years ago) the banks and investors lose millions. Still, he can always get people to put money into his projects, I guess because he wins more than he loses.

People dont really believe that GM or Ford will really go down for the count. Historically, it has been rare for this to happen to such large industries. But it HAS happened.

Time will tell.

Could break up/be broken up.

For direct replies replace nospam with schmetterling

Those are possibilities. If they choose to take bankruptcy, then stocks can become worthless, contracts can be cancelled, and the company may be allowed to reorganized without harrassment by creditors...

An example of a company that went to hell in a handbasket was PanAm...Even restructuring under bankruptcy protection couldnt save them.

Yeah, it definitely was a transmission problem....

How dare you guys make this *on*-topic for cars!
