GM shares plunge on bankruptcy fears by duke23

Or kicking'em while they're down.
Statements from Merrill Lynch auto analyst John Murphy along with "helpful comments from Treasury Secretary Henry Paulson regarding the housing industry that the " worst is yet to come" Add $1 per bbl and voila', the Dow hits a new low.
 
Merrill Lynch analyst John Murphy said GM needed to raise up to $15 billion in new capital to get through 2008 and 2009. The company insisted it had enough to cash to get through 2008 and could sell assets and make other moves in 2009.
 
GM closed down 15.1% to $9.98. Shares of all automakers plus automobile parts makers and tire makers also fell.
 
Bankruptcy is "not impossible" if the U.S. auto market continues to slump, Murphy wrote. A GM bankruptcy would put all labor contracts at risk and take years to resolve and could cause problems for thousands of suppliers.

 
Level = fairly tough
She said, 'There is no reason
and the truth is plain to see.'
But I wandered through my playing cards
and would not let her be.

The color of my wife's face when she sobered up and realized whom she had married:
 
"A Whiter Shade of Pale" Procol Harum.
 
I am old, I've got the album on casette, Conquistador...
 
Ok, deskman. You may be getting a classic Jag, but I won a $20 gift certificate to a local ice cream shop for donating blood on Monday. Ice cream. I win!

Darn you dada, but my guess would have been wrong. I was going with Stairway to Heaven, just off the top of my head, but didn’t think it was right.
 
I might have mentioned this before, my kids name is Laura so I kind of like you handle.
 
She also starts her 5th year of college this fall if you care to throw some chips my way.

"Now it looks like something Toyonda would design...blahh"
 
NOT!
 
The Sienna and Odyssey look way better than the new Caravan. First time I saw a new Carvan it looked like a delivery truck. It still does.

Winner, winner chicken dinner. Man that was fast. Congrats, laurasdada. A classic organ chord progression but unlike Jim Morrison of the Doors who was known for occaisonally playing his own organ, a R&R hall of famer. At least you've got it on casette, lol, you didn't say 8-track. Wore out 3 copies of the Dead 'Europe '72 ' on that ill conceived technology.Conquistador a great song btw.. Should I mention the Cars for relevancy.Please post pictures of the Jag when you score it deskman, fond memories of a friend's classic XKE V-12. British Leyland. Yeah I know they broke down alot but they were still cool.
 
Level = med hard
Do you want to see me crawl across the floor to you?
Do you want to hear me beg you to take me back?

What did Chrysler offer Press to make him leave Toyota? Must have been a big carrot or he found out Toyota had him on the chopping block. His wife is Japanese. I wonder if she's committing harey carey!

That one will probably go the way of the Ford Thunderbird. This nostalgia crap is not doing the big three any good.
