Alright, we get it. We’re deep within it, up to our elbows. Recession and economic turmoil haunts us at every turn and there isn’t much we can do about it. Cry, scream, throw yourself out of your office window…nothing is going to help at this point. The automotive companies and the banks and the lending agencies are all to blame. Nobody is immume, blah, blah, blah, and blah.
Have you heard enough about recession and economic downturn? It seems that there is very little to get excited about these days, especially if you’re within the automotive industry. But survival may soon be a fight to the finish and that fight could be, frankly, really exciting for all of us to witness.
Many analysts are predicting that there could be one car company to emerge out of this wreckage with actual sales, positive numbers, and *gasp* profits! The idea comes as foreign investment agencies line up to see which of the American car companies will collapse and who will win this proverbial race to the bottom of the pile. Foreign investment teams have a lot to work with, as the failure of the Big Three certainly guarantees at least some opening in the markets.
With this opening in the markets, an opportunity for a foreign car company arrives and someone will step through that rabbit hole. Many are asserting that it will be a car company with big brass ones like Nissan or Toyota. Regardless of what will occur, you can bank on the fact that every single company in the industry will be doing whatever it takes to survive.
Whether you’re into Nissan cars or Ford trucks, you can bet that it will be one hell of a fight to the finish.
