PSA Peugeot Citroen
Article Abstract:
PSA Peugeot Citroen ranks first among French car producers. The company has reduced costs and withdrew from the US market in 1991, but could announce a return in 1996. The company saw a drop in its market share in Europe to 12% in 1995 compared with 12.8% for the previous year. The French market has been affected by strikes. The industry saw a rise in sales in Jan 1996, but forecasts for the rest of 1996 are pessimistic. Exports to Asia and Latin America could help the industry.

Wheeling and dealing on the road to consolidation
Article Abstract:
The link up of DaimlerChrysler benefits from being the first major move in consolidation of the automotive industry. Overcapacity in the industry is nearer to 20-30% rather than 40%, but Asian companies are suffering. A bid for BMW could be its downfall as it's independence has been part of its unique strength. Volvo recently purchased a 13% share in Scania, making Scania less appealing to others.
