New Automotive/Aerospace Industries Research and Analysis Site, eMOTIONREPORTS.net, Says Boeing Not Leaving Seattle
DETROIT--March 29, 2001--eMOTION! REPORTS.net, (www.emotionreports.net) the recently launched (2/25/01) automotive/aerospace research and analysis site, has just gone live with a highly definitive analysis of the reasons, announced or otherwise, behind Boeing Chairman Phil Condit's proposed move from ancestral home Seattle.
"Clearly, there is much, much more involved here than just a desire to 'change the corporate culture,'" says eMOTIONREPORTS.net Publisher Myron D. Stokes. "In this analysis, we've looked at several potentially critical factors, inclusive of presumed predatory marketing activities on the part of competitor AIRBUS Industrie, the role of the European Union, the removal of Chrysler Corporation as a vital component of this country's industrial base, government, corporate and public apathy in matters economic, and Boeing's future, immediate and long range."
Stokes, an award winning former Newsweek and Newsweek Japan correspondent, says he assembled a core team of journalists, analysts, researchers and scientists to produce this report among others featured on this site such as "Der Sturm" a look at DaimlerChrysler; China's emergence as an economic power; the market downturn and 2002 Ford Explorer.
"We are making at least three key assertions in this analysis," says Online Editor John Pluenneke, son of highly regarded former BusinessWeek Bonn and London Bureau Chief John Sr.
"One, that Boeing's not going anywhere, but may get out of the commercial airplane business and concentrate on space commercialization opportunities if it doesn't get E.U./AIRBUS-type support; two, that the announcement was influenced by the DaimlerChrysler difficulties and three, both the U.S automotive and aerospace industries are at risk, with the possibility of non-U.S. business entity takeover of GM and even Ford."
Dr. Sheila Ronis, Pentagon and NASA consultant, for example, says that , "At the risk of sounding alarmist, the U.S. economy, and thus its industrial base, is under attack... and we're at war in an economic sense."
The format of the site also creates a new arena for the presentation of pure research data compilations allowing for broader, although still defined, audience reach. A White Paper, for example, on a new approach to enhancing the stability of HCOG (high center of gravity) vehicles presented by DRIVE-TEK, a Dana Corp, GKN Automotive AG joint venture, is featured in conjunction with 2002 Ford Explorer analysis.
