Hyundai Genesis Sedan (Full Review) - (USA)
Inasmuch as luxury car buyers might turn their noses up when they hear the name Hyundai mentioned among BMW, Lexus and Mercedes, the fact remains that the Genesis holds its own against many of the top names in the business. And, with a price comparable to a Buick Lucerne or Toyota Avalon, the Hyundai Genesis is likely to attract customers looking to make their first luxury sedan purchase without busting the bank. A Hyundai Surprise In The Form of the Genesis Sedan Korean automaker brings

BMW to Continue to Focus on Premium Vehicles but with Added Sustainability - (USA)
Official Release: The BMW Group will continue to focus on individual mobility in the premium sector as part of its Strategy Number ONE. “The market for premium vehicles will continue to grow over the medium to long term,” stated Chairman of the Board of Management of BMW AG, Norbert Reithofer, at the Annual General Meeting in Munich on Thursday. For instance, premium vehicles account for only one to two percent of the total market in China – well below the level achieved in countries such as Ger

Learning from the Emergent Multinationals - (USA)
In GLOBALITY: Competing with Everyone from Everywhere for Everything, authors Harold L. Sirkin, James W. Hemerling and Arindam K. Bhattacharya contend that the old model of globalization is evolving into a new phase in which “challengers” from rapidly developing economies such as Brazil, Russia, India and China (the famous BRICs) are competing with incumbent Western giants and growing at a staggering 30% per year. The book was published last June. PROFILE SIRKIN is a Senior Partner a

Adjusting to “A New Normal” - (USA)
Good Evening: U.S. stocks persistently drifted higher today after 3 straight down days. The economic and earnings news was mostly of the offsetting variety, thus helping to hold prices in a fairly narrow range as volatility continued to ebb. Since yields on everything from Treasurys, to corporate bonds, to credit cards were the subject of some debate today, it might be helpful to consider how the forces affecting them will interact as the markets adjust to what PIMCO’s Mohamed El-Erian calls

Fixing up the old bandwagon - (USA)
Sensibly enough, Doc Searls chose to repair the old buggy rather than buy a new one: A few days ago I took in my old Volkswagen Passat to get the water pump replaced. Turns out lots of other stuff was worn out or broken and needed fixing too. The final bill came to around $5000, which is what I paid for the thing three years ago. For a minute I thought about getting a new car. They’re cheaper than ever, with lots of good deals, and guarantees that would relieve me of the need to pay much for

Driving Innovation | Fast Company - (USA)
Raised on Total Request Live, wireless phones, and generous allowances, generation Y is driving enormous, recession-proof sales for brands like Pepsi, Sony, and Abercrombie & Fitch. So it's not surprising that the nation's 18- to 24-year-olds are attracting the attention of all sorts of brands -- young and old, hip and stuffy alike. One unlikely suitor: the old-line car company.

Used Cars and Smog Tests - (USA)
In the economy we are in, rather than purchasing a new vehicle, a lot of families are going to choose to buy a used car. With that in mind, there are going to be a lot of financial considerations that go into place when buying a used car. When I say financial considerations, I am not just talking about the sales price. When you are a family looking to save money the last thing you want to do is buy a used car with extra expenses you weren’t prepared for.Especially if the extra expenses

The Thing with Feathers - (USA)
I know that we're all still supposed to be jubilant over the election. This is supposedly our honeymoon, these days between Obama's victory and his inauguration, before he's had a chance to start disappointing us in earnest. But elation hasn't been my mood; not at all. Maybe I'm just too tired from the endless campaign, but I've felt cautious, depleted, reflective, even a little melancholy. The November days are short and bleak, and the thing with feathers threatens to fly south for the winter.P

Pain in the Auto Industry - (USA)
Well, 789 Chrysler dealerships got notification today that they’ll be out of business by June 9. Personally, I think that this is the first sign of the pain and destruction that is going to hit the economy from the automotive world. The word on the “street” is that GM is soon going to do the same thing to 2600 dealerships tomorrow.

CTS: Strong Player in Two Difficult Sectors - (USA)
CTS Corp (CTS) operates in two segments – EMS (electronic manufacturing services) and C&S (Components and Sensors). A large part of the C&S is for automotive applications, so CTS is operating in two difficult sectors at a time when the business cycle is pointing down. Nevertheless, the company's strengths make it an attractive buy at Friday's close of 5.53. Based on a strong balance sheet, effective R&D, improving diversification, and favorable macro factors, I expect CTS to to reac
