General Motors, Chrysler in merger talks: NY Times

WASHINGTON (Reuters) – General Motors is in preliminary talks about a possible merger with fellow U.S. automaker Chrysler, The New York Times reported late on Friday.

The talks between GM and Cerberus Capital Management, the private equity firm that owns Chrysler, began more than a month ago and are not certain to produce a deal, the paper said.

The Wall Street Journal reported on Friday night that the merger talks had been suspended because of financial market turmoil.

The Times said two people close to the process said the chances of a merger were “50-50″ as of Friday and would most likely still take weeks to work out.

A merger would drastically reshape the ailing U.S. auto industry, reducing the Big Three of Detroit to the Big Two.

GM shares have fallen to near a 60-year low on fears the global financial crisis could derail turnaround plans.

GM and Detroit’s other automaker, Ford Motor Co both ruled out on Friday seeking bankruptcy protection.

GM shares fell as low as $4 early on Friday, the lowest price for the stock since 1949, but recovered and ended up 13 cents, or 2.7 percent higher, at $4.89 on the New York Stock Exchange.

ASDA CUTS FUEL PRICES AGAIN

SUPERMARKET chain Asda has cut fuel prices in a reduction effective from Monday 6th October3.

It dropped the price of a litre of unleaded by a penny to 105.9p and of diesel by 2p to 116.9p at its 170 plus petrol stations across the UK.

Trading Director Darren Blackhurst said: “We review our fuel prices daily and are committed to passing back the benefits of lower cost prices to all our customers with our national price.

“We urge our rivals not to take advantage of drivers who don’t live close to an Asda petrol station and to pass on cost benefits fairly to all their customers.”

Asda has cut 11p off unleaded and 15p off diesel in the last three months, it said.

AA spokesman Luke Bosdet said: “Although very welcome in bringing the cost of a tank of petrol down by 50p, many non-Asda towns will still be charging 3p a litre more next week.

“This turns buying fuel in the UK into a postcode lottery where drivers in one town can be spending £1.50 a tank more than another just down the road.

“Drivers are rightly angry about this and many have complained to their local MPs.”

Latest UK average prices were 109.89 for a litre of unleaded and 121.54 for diesel, he said.

GM to put French factory, Hummer brand up for sale

DETROIT – General Motors Corp.’s treasurer said Wednesday that the automaker is planning to put its Strasbourg, France, manufacturing operation and its Hummer truck brand up for sale, and it may announce more asset sales later this year. ADVERTISEMENT

Company Treasurer Walter Borst said in a slide presentation at the Deutsche Bank Leveraged Finance Conference that the company expects to distribute marketing materials for both operations in October.

The slides posted on GM’s Web site Wednesday say the assets under review are worth $2 billion to $4 billion. The presentation also says GM continues to review other asset sales and will make more announcements in the fourth quarter.

“We believe that we can monetize certain assets without impacting the strategic direction of the company,” Borst said during his presentation, which was posted on GM’s investor Web site.

GM and other automakers have faced liquidity problems as losses have mounted and U.S. sales have declined. GM announced a plan in July to cut $10 billion in costs and raise another $5 billion through asset sales and borrowing through the end of next year.

On Friday, the nation’s largest automaker gave notice that it would draw the remaining $3.5 billion of a $4.5 billion revolving credit facility to boost its liquidity.

Borst said GM expects the global market to grow from 70.6 million in sales last year to more than 75 million in 2010, and says GM is positioned to capture that growth in emerging markets. The growth, coupled with cost cuts, factory capacity reductions and other management decisions, will set the stage for improved financial results by 2010, he said.

By 2010, GM will sell two-thirds of its vehicles outside the U.S., compared with 59 percent in 2007, he said.

He said GM plans to reduce its North American structural costs from $33.2 billion in 2007 to $26 billion to $27 billion in 2010. That figure includes savings from shifting retiree health care costs to a trust administered by the United Auto Workers, although the accounting of those savings could change, he said.

By 2010, the company also expects to reduce its hourly health care costs by more than $2 billion. The company spent $3.8 billion in 2007, he said.

Borst said GM is shoring up its liquidity and has the scale to be well positioned for an industry rebound.

“We’re making changes to compete and win in what we think is an industry revolution,” he said.
