the Obama administration will file to put Chrylser into bankruptcy
 
I don't understand why that is the President's decision to make.

There are two types of Bankruptcy's. Voluntary - When the Company files on its own. And Involuntary - when a creditor(s) who meet certain thresholds can force a company into Bankruptcy.
 
My guess is with the money lent by the US Government came with the stipulation that allowed the US to force it into BK if certain covenants were not adhered to or met.

Keep Ford out of your BK discussion, when the smoke clears we will be standing tall leading the world market. Allan Mullaley is a genius and his way forward plan is right on schedule.

Chryslers hopes hinge on weather or not the creditors they have will take stock as repayment for the debt. If they do then they may live to fight another day. If not then it may be the beggining of the end for them.

Everyone has an opinion on what's happening with Chrysler, Fiat, the government and their creditors. In the end, we won't know what happens until it happens.
Remember originally the government said they had till April 30 to get the additional bailout money, not declare bankruptcy. So, something must have happened along the way.
Also, the governement has asked GM and Chrsyler to prepare to file for bankruptcy, not actually file. This is to help things un-wind and happen quickly, if bankruptcy is what has to happen.
Lastly, all of these parties, including the analysts making predictions, are using the press as a way to gain leverage, so until it happens, its all just noise.
In the end, its about those of us who are still interested in the cars, and those poeple that depend on that industry.
Capitalism without failure, is religion without sin.

True but Fiat announced it wasn't interested in Chrysler. Are they being coy? Hard to say.
 
I don't mind capitalism failing but if it has sinned, let the sinners get punished, not me.
 
I don't like this "we sinned, you go to hell" business.

Exactly.
 
Everyone asks me if I'm worried as I sell Chryslers. I tell them that until we're told to take the Chrysler logo off the wall then it's business as usual.

Breaking News CNN says GM is killing off Pontiac.
