This seems like big news.

Do the Big Three become the Big Two?

But Treasury sold those shares back to Chrysler at a loss in 2011.
I didn't know this. That move seems pretty sketchy. Did that not get any press when it happened? Did GM get a similar deal when it 'paid off' its loan?

I don't know off hand. I do know the gov't is in the hole like $10B when the gov't sold its GM shares. But I don't know if that's just a $10B bottom line loss (taking into account the loan and the ownership pieces). It has to be, because the share value has gone up pretty significantly.

New logo. And boy they sure haven't come out of bankruptcy swinging like GM has. Check out the new logo for Fiat Chrysler Automobiles. FCA. That...does not have a ring to it. Sad.
