In it for the Money, Who’s Making it? A Financial Review of the World’s Top Car Groups – 2007 Edition - Management Briefing


Description: It has been an extraordinary year for the car industry. During 2006, comparative valuations of the major companies swung around massively as shareholders tried to get to grips with which of the stocks would survive the structural changes that are sweeping through the sector.

So big, are these companies and so slow are they to adapt, that years have passed with only moderate movement in share price. In the last 12 months though, we have had so much variety that there are prices that are down on a year earlier – like Ford – and prices that have nearly doubled, like Fiat.

Seemingly, small events have triggered massive reactions, which have seen huge volumes of shares being traded. The most startling example has been Porsche, whose share price doubled because it bought into Volkswagen, and Volkswagen whose value was up 1.2 times within the year because its shares were bought by Porsche. That is a rare case of conjuring a win-win out of thin air.
