continue damage large likely margins mix persist profit sales seems shift state
Sales of gas-inefficient large SUVs are in a state of near-collapse this month. It seems likely that the shift in the sales mix away from large SUVs will persist and continue to damage Detroit's profit margins in the process.

fact fourth good guidance margins north quarter street strength wall
I think all of us on Wall Street were misled not only by the company's first quarter guidance, but also by fact back in the fourth quarter, their North American margins were disappointing and terrible. I think there's real strength here, but a lot of good things were concentrated in the first quarter.
america available cost europe expected gains given margins north numbers operating
They were pretty much as expected in North America. Where they made gains was in better operating margins in Europe. Given that the market-share numbers in Europe are available and pretty unimpressive, it must be on the cost side.

management plans reasonable though time
I think it's reasonable to give the new management time to look over the details, though I don't know how Ford's plans are going to change.
easier embraced equality gm goes principle rank
It goes to the 'equality of sacrifice' principle embraced by the union. It may make it easier for GM to get concessions from the rank and file.
cut dividends gm paying
I think they will cut the dividend today. They should say something about the dividend one way or the other. Financially, GM shouldn't be paying any dividends at all.
gm matter short shut strike totally
I think there will be a strike, but a short one. But any Delphi strike would shut down GM totally in a matter of days.
among benefit bitten consensus forgetting gm hughes perhaps taken value wait
We can wait to see what happens, but perhaps he's bitten off more than he can chew, ... They've used the value of Hughes effectively to benefit other shareholders. I don't think there's any consensus among analysts that GM is forgetting about shareholders and should be taken over by raiders.
ford wants
Padilla is a very able (executive), but he is also the old guard. Padilla is out because Ford wants his own people. That's my view.
area attract expecting great heavy hoping immediate limits plenty serious tells tremendous
Rockport has a tremendous fishery for reds and we are hoping to attract the most serious redfish anglers to show them off and put on a great event. Our immediate inclination tells us we are expecting a big angler turnout from the area and plenty of heavy limits at the weigh-in stage.
close gm happen likely million numbers pass strength thanks toyota vehicles volume
I think GM's numbers will be close to 9.1 million to 9.2 million vehicles in 2006 thanks to its strength in the Asia-Pacific market. It's likely that Toyota will pass GM in volume worldwide, but I don't think it's going to happen in 2006.
addition billion gm
I still think it's unlikely, ... I think GM has the liquidity it needs. In addition to the cash, it has $50 billion in untapped borrowing.
