GM Reaches The End Of The Road
DETROIT -- Unless bondholders agree to a long-shot debt exchange prescribed by the federal government, General Motors, once the largest automaker in the world, will soon go bankrupt. The debt exchange is a critical component of the automaker's revised restructuring plan, announced Monday, which also calls for the company, by next year, to kill its 83-year-old Pontiac brand, cut its network of dealers nearly in half, close 13 plants and eliminate 21,000 factory jobs. The new plan also says General Motors ( GM - news - people ) would need an additional $11.6 billion in federal aid this year, bringing GM's total taxpayer assistance to $27 billion. Regardless, GM's bankruptcy is looking "more likely," says the company's chief executive, Fritz Henderson.The more aggressive plan was developed in recent weeks with the aid of President Obama's task force on autos, which on March 30 rejected GM's earlier viability plan and also forced out former Chief Executive G. Richard Wagoner.Henderson indicated GM will do whatever the government wants to ensure its long-term success. "We need to have a more stable and sustainable business model, because, candidly, we only want to do this once," Henderson said at a news conference.In divvying up what's left of GM, the government intends to take the largest slice for itself--just above 50%--and hand another fat piece--39%--to the United Auto Workers union. That would leave a little over 10% for GM's bondholders, if they choose to accept GM's offer to swap $27 billion in unsecured debt for new equity in a restructured GM.It's a lousy deal, mos...Click here to read the whole Article (external link)
Robots And Beyond
Amid a sick economy and bitter wars over resources, Dean Kamen dreams of a world in which we exchange ideas, invest in the future and benefit from each other's creations. To realize this dream, Kamen--an inventor perhaps best known for the Segway--founded FIRST. Short for "For Inspiration and Recognition of Science and Technology," FIRST, founded 20 years ago, is a series of competitions intended to inspire youth to pursue careers as scientists, engineers and big thinkers by making math and science cool. Kamen calls FIRST the "NCAA of smarts" and uses robot competitions to prove to kids that engineering is rewarding and just as fun as any high school sport. And unlike most high school sports, FIRST provides students with a very real look into a promising future as an engineer. In Pictures: Making A Robot Video: Rocking Robots The 2TrainRobotics team from New York City's Morris High School demonstrates the power of FIRST. Morris High is located in the South Bronx, one of the poorest school districts in the U.S. Almost every day after school from September through April, students on the robot team travel an hour by train and bus to the Columbia University campus in upper Manhattan. Several Columbia students act as mentors, dedicating their time and energy to help the students not only build the robot, but also fill out college applications and help with their homework. The competition has grown exponentially. During its first year, in 1989, FIRST attracted sponsorships from companies that included (nyse: GM - ...Click here to read the whole Article (external link)
The Tortured Chamber Of Commerce
The U.S. Chamber Of Commerce wants you to sign an online pledge "to support free enterprise and encourage policies that strengthen it." The Chamber can't be serious. If too many people signed, it could mean the end of billions in corporate aid programs from the federal government every year and billions more in company-specific handouts and tax incentives from states and cities. If free enterprise were the law of the land, a lot of the Chamber's members would find themselves out of business.I have no problem with government payments to businesses when they can be demonstrated to serve the public good. When state- supported universities team up with private pharmaceutical companies and biotechs to develop life- and hair-saving drugs, count me as a supporter. When states contract with construction firms to build bridges and roads, I'm fine with it. Defense spending can be managed better, but I'll begrudgingly admit we need it.The Chamber is the largest business lobby in the U.S. It is inextricably tied to government. Its board of directors includes executives from the Carlyle Group, Lockheed-Martin and Accenture ( ACN - news - people ). This is not the animal spirit of the capitalism club. It has long fought to win government support for its members.So forgive me if I don't want a lecture on free enterprise from Chamber CEO Thomas Donahue who, last year around this time had the gall to write: "The defeat of the financial rescue plan in the House of Representatives yesterday dealt a needless blow to an already faltering economy." After detailing the investor hissy fit over the failure of the bailout...Click here to read the whole Article (external link)
Beijing To Companies: Clean Up China
When the whole world is blaming China for polluting the earth, Beijing, on the other hand, pointed fingers at factories run by Coca-Cola and Pepsi in the capital as major water polluters and named Beijing Benz-DaimlerChrysler ( DCX - news - people ), and a joint venture of German Gerresheimer Glass, as major energy consumers responsible for carbon emissions. There is only one year left for China to achieve its energy-saving and emission-reduction targets to reduce per-unit gross domestic energy consumption by 4% and by a total of 20% in five years. Those goals were outlined in the country's 11th five-year plan for 2006 to 2010. So the city government of Beijing is setting an example to show other local authorities how to speed up their efforts to force the private sector to fulfill the green targets laid down from China's central leaders. The Beijing Development and Reform Commission, the capital's economic planning agency, put 12 international and local brewers, beverage producers and dairy companies on its "List of Major Water-Polluting Enterprises." These companies include Coca-Cola's ( KO - news - people ) bottling company in Beijing, a subsidiary of its rival ...Click here to read the whole Article (external link)
The Great Auto Industry Shakeout
The bailout of America's auto industry--General Motors, Chrysler, their finance units, their parts suppliers, Cash for Clunkers, etc.--is costing American taxpayers more than $100 billion. Let's put that in perspective: It's enough to pay for every car and truck sold in America for the first half of this year. For now, nobody really knows what we taxpayers will get for our money. Everybody hopes (or should hope) that GM and Chrysler become viable companies once again, but in truth, whether either company makes it is far from certain. On paper, the new General Motors ( GMGMQ.PK - news - people )--shorn of excess debt, dealers, employees and brands--should be in great shape. But none of that painful cutting will matter unless the company can restore the faded luster of Chevrolet and Cadillac, its two core brands. The two others, Buick and GMC Truck, don't matter nearly as much. GM has some excellent engineers, as demonstrated by such worthy cars as the Cadillac CTS and Chevrolet Malibu. But for decades the engineers have been ham-strung by a corporate culture bereft of accountability. While GM was racking up tens of billions in losses during this decade, the only guy who got fired was former CEO Rick Wagoner--and it took President Obama to do it. Thus it was puzzling when new CEO Fritz Henderson's first round of executive appointments all were promotions from within. In other words, there are new people in key positions but no new blood. Chrysler's road is tougher yet. The company's new-product pipeline is bare, after a decade of mismanagement under Daimler and aimless...Click here to read the whole Article (external link)
