Chrysler sold, Ford up next
Members of Ford Motor Co.'s founding family are discussing the sale of part of their controlling stake in the money-losing automaker, three people with direct knowledge of the talks said.
The value of the shares has plummeted to $584 million from $2.3 billion since Bill Ford, great-grandson of the founder, became chairman eight years ago. The automaker eliminated dividends in September, wiping out about $85 million in annual income the family received as recently as 2001, when the shares paid a 30-cent dividend.
Ford shares rose to $8.46 today in trading in Frankfurt after DaimlerChrysler AG said it will sell 80.1 percent of its Chrysler Group to Cerberus Capital Management LP.
