I checked the share value for Ford and compared it to GM for the last two years. General Motors has a similar peak and crash trend. What does that mean?
It means that Ford's performance may have something to do with the market demand for cars itself in addition to the lesser (but still significant?) impact of people avoiding Ford. The link below is a comparison of GM and Ford over the last two years.
Notice the AFA implicitly credits itself for a 13% drop in sales. If you look at GM and Ford's share value for recent times, BOTH had a big drop at around the same time, which is a pretty big hint that that 13% wasn't the AFA and was the market. The AFA -could- have had some impact, but it wouldn't be the full 13%.
Bear in mind, however, that share value and sales are separate things. They both, however, are indicators of a company's health (I'd stick with share value more than sales any day). There is also no way we can truly determine this just from looking at one chart.
This would be mistaken! Many companies been around for decades went out of business already, for example AMC, don't you remember that auto maker? They went bankruptcy back in early 80's, Chrysler bought it out.
The truth is NOBODY is immune to bankruptcy!
Problem really is union! Union is good at eating company's profit no matter what! Most UAW member employees makes 70 dollars an hour! Don't you think any companies can afford that? GM is having same problem, and they are heading wrong direction.
You show chart post here. I look at it. It was not share value. It is show how is their selling percent.

You're right. I copied the wrong chart last night by accident (sleepy me). Thanks for the correction!
