mlhm5 Posted November 10, 2008 Author Share Posted November 10, 2008 Ignoring it usually works better. With GM stock forecast to be $0 and Ford saying they only have enough money to be around until 2010, the bell is ringing for the US auto industry. Looks like there is an acquisition/bail out coming for both F and GM or they will go belly up. The problem is demand. The US consumer is not spending which means businesses are not investing. Exports will be weak because the rest of the world is in the same recession, so unless the job market turns around big time, consumers won't be buying in 2010 either. The only to reverse the job market blues is to do exactly what China did today, the US government has to spend at least the same amount as the bail out once again in the economy to stimulate it. This should be spent on infrastructure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NickF1011 Posted November 10, 2008 Share Posted November 10, 2008 That's all fine and dandy, mlhm5. But how many threads are you going to create under the pretense of Ford "news" just to say the same crap over and over again? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mlhm5 Posted November 10, 2008 Author Share Posted November 10, 2008 So, anyone going to see Quantum of Solace this weekend? I'm waiting until Thanksgiving weekend, personally. Ford is forecasted to run out of money next year and you are worried about what? Ooops! OC were running almost $8 billion a quarter and F plans to cut $5 billion in spending. What kind of math would allow F to stay in business in a market where total sales are 11-12mm vehicles and F is still losing market share? Ford has 7 months of cash left without laying off everyone and tapping the credit lines. Sales are not coming back in 2009 or 2010. Look at the employment numbers. Deal with it.
