I really thought this was going to cycle like the housing industry, but so far haven't seen anything to support that. Of course, the housing industry really wasn't a cycle, but a combination of greedy banks loaning money to people who shouldn't have qualified in the first place.

Heard that Hummer and Saab were going to be let go, maybe more. I've already seen where Chevy is not sponsoring several NASCAR races next year. Rick Wagoner is supposed to deliver an announcement tomorrow morning at 0830 EST. Should be worth listening to. This post has been edited by Rob Hood: Jul 15 2008, 05:59 AM
