Is that Aberdeen, Washington or Aberdeen, Dakota?

There is news of another auto assembly plant being shut down due to a strike at a different plant. There are too many deeply divisive issues to solve. Too many moving parts to align.

Not long to wait for an update. I wonder if the forecast of 40 - 50% market share will be revised up or down?

It is always best to revise forecasts as appropriate and if or when that would be sensible, particularly if there may be even the slightest doubt if those forecasts are achievable.

What would be the rate of increase required, applied exponentially, over what time period to increase Seeing Machines automotive market share to 40%?

Please note. If You disagree with the basic argument there is no point even thinking about the above. Please do offer an opinion though.

The best example I have ever seen of someone messing up real bad while trying to appear clever.

Try writing something using your brain and a pen/pencil/keyboard approach.

Your AI skills are failing.

The same thing today, shortly after the UT.

This is looking worse by the hour. There might be some other factors behind the steel plant shut down in Granite City.

How could one week of disruption cause steel manufacturing to falter?

I will keep digging.

He could get a job as a postman and let someone else take over.

More contracts are needed pronto and big contracts or this could all fail and wither away.

There are some reports that the UAW strikes caused a steel plant to shutdown in Granite City. I have some spare time after Wall Street opens to dig deeper, more follows.

I will try and find some donuts. There is a possibility the donut market could be affected by what happens in Detroit so there might not be any left for shareholders. Will do my best to at least send the recipe.

See what the Linkedin gurus think, they might know better.

Early start today.

There is a live UAW event in Detroit on Friday, 10.00am local time, so we will know what is happening over the next week from then, hopefully. If the event goes ahead of course. The uncertainty could increase next week.

I will try and keep you up to date but I won't be able to follow every development.

Something unusual happens shortly after close every day recently. For now, I am calling it a PUP or previously undetected phenomenon. In case this violates any forum rules I mean previously undetected by me and among trades reported on this site.

The news flow is really hotting up.

There was a good report on CNN rounding up developments to Day 5 of the strikes. It is easy to find.

If there are any further major developments by 01.00 ET I will try and write up a summary covering the main issues.

Don't ignore the elephant in the room and pay no attention to fools.

We will see what the situation is in 3 months.

If You are unable to find anything to refute what I have posted that is your problem Lewbo, not mine.

Try typing ''Ford CEO warns of potential bankruptcy'' into a search engine and see what it finds.

I can't help you anymore.

What if a lot of people don't agree?

Sitting back and waiting for contracts to roll in?

I want the deckchair hire contract in that cotton wool lined world.

Let's see if the BOD stick to their forecast they will win a 40% market share in the automotive sector.

Not long until the next update/results.

I disagree Lewbo18, there would be too many links and almost all the sites I have visited have terms and conditions restricting what can be done with the content.

You should do YOUR OWN RESEARCH and form YOUR OWN OPINION based on all the evidence.

I think it is best to wait 3 Months and study all the evidence again.

What do you think about the GM CEO earning $29 Million a year?

Could they afford a pay cut or give up some performance related incentives to help save the company?

That is one way of looking at the UAW strike fund.

I have read more articles that paint a different picture.

I think, Max 13 Months?

We will have a better idea over Thanksgiving and into the New Year.

GM CEO defends $29 Million salary.

Ford CEO warns of bankruptcy.

The situation appears to be worsening amid talk of the UAW escalating the strike action and lay-offs.

This could go on for a year or more, there is very little to go on.

There may be comments on any potential impact on Seeing Machines sales volumes in the next update/results.

SEE DMS isn't made by BMW.

How can this be made to happen though?

So without using any fantasy speculation and dream analysis techniques, it is easy.

Seeing Machines would have to agree terms with BMW to allow BMW to supply SEE DMS. That would work.

These detection systems could be used to detect petrol vapour or nitrous oxide gas from a leaky fuel system as well as signs of alcohol in a vehicle but, does anyone here really believe that it is possible to detect a driver's blood alcohol levels using a mirror-based driver monitoring system?

This process would have to be carried out before the vehicle moves off in any event.

What if someone has a propane gas canister in a camper-van or mobile home and the valve is faulty?

That scenario could be a lot worse than passengers having some beers.

I don't think the available evidence backs up that conclusion.

The RAC are good at testing cars and it is unlikely some random bod on Linkedin knows better.

That is a very useful suggestion. For everyone who ever reads this, that is a very good idea.

So, I tried it a different way and ''DMS market North America'' doesn't find any results relating to driver monitoring systems or SEEing Machines.

I will try that without the word ''market'' later when I get some spare time.

''North American DMS'' and ''DMS North America'' will be the search terms.

I will use 2 different search engines and compare the results. There may be a fault with one of them.
