GENERAL Motors will this week reveal that sales collapsed in October, taking its US market share to a 25-year low and fuelling fresh fears that the world's largest carmaker is heading towards bankruptcy. Its US sales dropped 26% compared with the same month last year, according to early estimates, putting its monthly US market share at 20.5% - the lowest since at least 1980.
On a totally seperate note, I have been regularly typing in "peak oil" into google, when I started 3 months ago it was 1.7 million hits,it slowly whent up to 2.1million by last week. today its gone down to 1.7million is it a sunday thing? or something more sinister?
