...supporting 11 million or 12 million sales a year. However, the by-product of this process is that at 16 million unit sales, which is the level from just three years ago, Detroit may be forced to give up market share because it cannot replace its old plants and labor infrastructure fast enough to take advantage of a modest but rapid sales recovery. At a 20% market share, GM will only have to produce 2.2 million vehicles in the U.S. this year. If it wants to keep that share when sales get back to where they were the year before...
Responding to a growing concern with the way universities invest their money, Harvard’s Student Labor Action Movement and Yale’s Responsible Endowment Project co-hosted a two-day Responsible Endowment Conference in Cambridge this weekend with the aim of demystifying university fund management.

...Livni's last-minute surge continues, especially among women voters, Kadima could emerge as the leading party. Labor and the smaller leftwing parties would rally to her side, but only if she refuses to draft the hawkish Lieberman into her coalition. Yet without Lieberman's backing, Livni will fall short of a majority in the Knesset. So Lieberman, the ex-nightclub bouncer, will decide if it is Livni or Netanyahu who is allowed past the velvet rope to this charmed circle of power.
