if you view the glass as half full, maybe you'll take this as a sign that Detriot is starting to turn things around.

The pace of the decline accelerated slightly last month, with December-to-December sales down 2.9%.</blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.econbrowser.com/archives/2008/01/ongoing_slump_i.html">Although this has become a familiar story, there is one interesting new development.  For some time the trend has been that while total vehicle sales fell, sales of imported vehicles rose.  Something curious happened last month, however, in that vehicles manufactured in North America actually gained market share relative to the imports.</blockquote></div><div style="margin: 0px 6px 6px 4px;"><table style="font-size: 11px;border-spacing: 0px;padding: 0px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tr><td style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</td><td align="right" style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;width:107px" width="107"><a href="http://clipmarks.com/share/97355C3C-83D7-49CC-BD80-A2829C3C0C68/blog/" title="blog or email this clip"><img src="http://content7.clipmarks.com/images/c2b-foot.png" border="0" alt="blog it" width="107" height="17" style="border-width:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;" /></a></td></tr></table></div></div>
