		<description><![CDATA[An investment arm of Goldman Sachs Group Inc. (GS) is poised to invest about $250 million in Geely Automotive &#8211; China&#8217;s largest privately-owned carmaker &#8211; by purchasing the company&#8217;s convertible bonds and warrants. Geely Automotive is the Hong Kong-listed arm of Chinese automaker Geely Holding. Goldman Sachs Capital Partners will buy convertible bonds and warrants issued by Geely&#8217;s Hong Kong-listed subsidiary. The deal is almost complete, but some technical details of the investment are still pending. Confirmation of the deal could be announced as early as this week. Geely plans to use the proceeds from the Goldman investment to boost its production capacity, which could free up capital for its parent to bid for Volvo. Geely&#8217;s parent company has made global headlines in recent weeks after contemplating a bid for ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Auto dealers are now facing a sales crisis as the $3 billion &#8220;Cash for Clunkers&#8221; cash incentive program closes. The program, introduced by the U.S. Government in late July and ended August 24, allowed consumers to trade in their old gas-guzzling cars and trucks with a mileage of 18 miles per gallon or less for a value of up to $3,500-$4,500. The surge of applications under the program saw dealers run out of stock for popular models such as Focus, Civic, Corolla and Altima. The U.S. Department of Transportation reported that as many as 690,114 new cars were sold under the program, reflecting a $2.88 billion in rebate applications, which is close to the program allocation. The situation has become worse as automakers have been slow to ramp up production ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Kraft Foods Inc. (KFT), a leading manufacturer and marketer of packaged food products and grocery products worldwide, on Monday, September 7, 2009 has offered a takeover bid for Cadbury (CBY) at a purchase price of $16.2 billion (£10.2 billion). The offer price represents a 31% premium over the closing price on Friday, September 4, 2009. Thereafter, shares of Cadbury jumped 41%. However, Cadbury has rejected the offer, claiming that the total offer price of $16.2 billion (£10.2 billion) amounted to a significant undervaluation, as it expects to receive a bid for as much as $21 billion. The other major contenders for Cadbury are The Hershey Company (HMC), Kellogg’s (K) and PepsiCo (PEP). Kraft continues to pursue the takeover, as management at Kraft believes the deal (if successful) would create a ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The U.S. auto industry showed a 1% sales gain to produce 1.3 million vehicles in August. It was the first annual sales gain since October 2007. Sales of cars and light trucks surged 30% compared to July. The spike in sales was solely attributed to the Cash for Clunkers program launched by the U.S. government in late July. The program allowed consumers to trade in their old gas-guzzling cars and trucks with a mileage of 18 miles per gallon or less for a value of up to $3,500–$4,500.  As many as 690,114 new cars were sold under the program. Toyota (TM), Honda (HMC) and Ford (F) were the largest beneficiaries of the program with their fuel-efficient lineup of vehicles.

		<description><![CDATA[Japan’s biggest automaker, Toyota Motor Corporation (TM), is reportedly slashing production capacity at one of its factories in Japan, with domestic sales falling to their lowest point in over 30 years. The company will suspend production at one of the two production lines at the Takaoka plant in Aichi prefecture, central Japan from 2010 until the second half of 2011, lowering the facility’s overall capacity by 49% or 220,000 vehicles. Toyota also plans to shut New United Motor Manufacturing Inc. (NUMMI) in California, a joint-venture factory with General Motors. In June, GM had pulled out of the joint venture after filing for bankruptcy. Toyota also plans to halt production lines at plants in Japan and U.K. These moves would cut the company’s production capacity by 700,000 vehicles to 1 million ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The Conference Board&#8217;s Consumer Confidence index soared to 54.1 in August, up from 47.4 (upwardly revised from 46.6) and blowing away expectations of just a slight increase to 47.5. However, while improving, it still remains very low; 90 is about normal. On the other hand, it sure beats the record low 25.3 set back in February. Since the Consumer represents over 70% of the economy, this is very good news indeed &#8212; especially coupled with the better news on housing prices we got today. The total index has two major components: the present situation and expectations for the future.  The big imporvement came on the expectations side, where that sub-index rose to 73.5 from 63.5. The increase in the present situation was more muted, and remains well below the expectations index at 24.9 ]]></description>

But the Japanese automaker sits on almost $19 billion is cash with little debt &#8211; a far cry from the dismal situation over a General Motors (NYSE: GM). Around the world governments have been struggling to find answers to the collapse of the credit markets. The result has been massive government investments and bailouts. But it’s been the auto industry that’s drawn the most criticism and debate. Canada just announced it would be injecting $3.3 billion into its auto production to prevent production from moving across the boarder. And their auto industry accounts for a much larger share of their economy than in the United States. Their ]]></description>
