None of this is news. If one has a knowledge of history, or at least understands the history of this business, one would realize that history is again repeating itself. With that said I think you need to study the history and truly understand this business. Look at Clark Equipment in the late 70's thru late 80's. Or further back to the brokered deals between Clark Equipment and TCM shortly after WWII. Thanks MacArthur!
Nothing new here for me, just the same old garbage in a repackaged form for a different generation.
Clark Equipment sold the USA control to the Germans and Japanese... The Japanese in turn sold out this industry to China!.... China, well you figure it out. This is really a small industry, no matter what you think!
