Re: PRC Economy - New Reflections : April 20 2015

Tata Motors is a fine example, it depends on Landrover and Jaguar operations in China for 95% of its operating profit. If China goes down, the whole company goes into the red. A similar situation exists at GM, VW and a host of other Fortune 500. BTW, JLR lost 5800 cars due to the Tianjin explosion ...
