When University President Drew G. Faust announced that the value of our endowment had dropped precipitously by 22 percent since its June 30 estimate...
...Huaibin, an auto industry analyst at research firm Global Insight in Shanghai, believes both companies brought problems to the partnership. Chery, he says, wasn't ready to produce a car of strong enough quality for the global market, while a struggling Chrysler didn't possess the funds needed to invest in the venture.
