...tricky part will be to increase manufacturing output by several hundred thousand cars a year without building any more factories. Chrysler remains cautious about undertaking new construction because it still remembers the overcapacity that smothered the company during the crisis years. Instead, Chrysler has been busy renovating old plants and even taking the unusual step of subcontracting its assembly work. When Chrysler officials took notice of unused capacity at an American Motors assembly plant in Kenosha, Wis., they hired AMC to start building cars like the Chrysler Fifth Avenue there. Chrysler has embraced high-technology equipment in its operations...
...frenzy? And why now? The main reason is a hike in global automaking capacity that has already dramatically increased output around the world and will do so for several more years. South Korea is showing that a developing country can build an auto industry almost overnight and quickly crack the American market.

Yamani countered that producers could control either prices or output, but not both at once. During OPEC's 17-day meeting in Geneva last month, Fahd repeatedly intervened from Riyadh on several key issues. The Geneva session wound up endorsing price-raising production limits, which Yamani initially opposed, through...
