When does GM get so desperate for money that it sells off (GM)Daewoo to Suzuki, which owns part of it, or sells their stake in it to Shanghai Auto of China, which also owns a small stake in it?

I can tell you this; once (not if) GM sells off Daewoo, you know that time is short for the existance of that company.

Ironic, isn't it, that everyone thought Daewoo was a "loser" and in fact it has been the smartest thing GM ever did (to buy into it for pennies on the dollar). Of course, it makes a huge profit for GM.

That's why they'll sell it off. They're selling off all of their family jewels, silverware and everything valuable (read: able to make a profit) in order to raise money in an attempt to survive. Sad. ]]>Mar 29th 2006 2:25PMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2006/03/29/suzuki-shares-on-the-upswing-after-gm-stock-dumpage/http://www.autoblog.com/2006/03/29/suzuki-shares-on-the-upswing-after-gm-stock-dumpage/

If Suzuki were to buy up GMDaewoo, they'd own more of the company which they're buying these cars from now, and if SAIC bought the GM shares, Suzuki would still own the same percent of GMDaewoo that they do now.

Just like the situation where GM is going to continue to have Suzuki build the Chevrolet Equinox (and Pontiac Torrent) in their Ingersoll, Ontario facility even though GM has sold almost all of Suzuki's once-held stock.

Likewise if disaster for GM continues and they have to sell their portion of GMDaewoo, I'm guessing that Daewoo would be more than happy to continue supplying Chevrolet-badged cars for virtually the rest of the world, as they are now. Besides, the Daewoo auto brand is dead except in South Korea, I believe. Oh yes, I think it still is in place in Romania too! ]]>Mar 29th 2006 8:36PMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2006/03/29/suzuki-shares-on-the-upswing-after-gm-stock-dumpage/http://www.autoblog.com/2006/03/29/suzuki-shares-on-the-upswing-after-gm-stock-dumpage/
The merged company will have manufacturing and sales of nearly 5 million vehicles and they can pool their resources, manpower, manufacturing, vehicle design and development, platforms etc to more effectively compete in the global market-place.

United they will stand, divided they will fall.
