MERGED: FCA & The COVID-19 (Coronavirus) Crisis:

Ok, so I merged all of the FCA/Coronavirus (COVID-19) material into one post. With the crisis going on, I know a lot of people want to escape reality and don't want to bombarded with constant updates. So please post all FCA/Coronavirus related material in this post.
 
My heart goes out to all hurt by this nasty virus.
 
On far less important part(Human life>>>>>Money)......…..FCA-PSA Merger can't close soon enough.
This been really awful for Italy(475 reported deaths in one single day),and FCA been still operating with some exception until recently Fiat Chrysler's only open Italian plant running at reduced capacity

Add on, a U.S. short recession, European Economy gets a'' Triple-Flu ''.
One big thing to watch for U.S. Economy is construction which tied to U.S. Pickup truck sales (both official Commercial Fleet and outside Commercial Fleets).
 
FIAT SPA /FIAT Chrysler Automobiles stock is at its lowest point since the Ferrari spin-off:$6.72 U$D NYSE
Ford stock is at $4.46 U$D

MMXX: The Way Forward September 2020 - Modena

Modena, 18 March 2020 – Maserati announces that its Brand relaunch event “MMXX: The Way Forward”, originally planned for May 2020, has been postponed to September in light of the current situation. As previously stated, the event will be held in Modena and will inaugurate the Brand's new Era.

Maserati is not standing still. The Trident Brand will launch its new Era from the very place that has been its home for more than 80 years. Maserati and Modena are inseparably linked, and now look to the future with the same passion, trust and audacity.

Maserati has 100% Italian DNA, and is in continuous movement, pushed by the audacity to never give up even in the toughest times. So the House of the Trident looks to the future, and has now chosen September 2020 for its restart, when it will take to the world stage for the future of mobility.

Ford has cancelled its stock dividend, and tapped its Line-Of-Credit.
Ford may have to either seek a bailout by U.S. Government (like Boeing is currently doing),or seek an Capital injection/sale by/to VW, or call John Elkann (Bill Ford's friend) to make both Henry Ford's rollover in their graves while making Mary Barra cry (Sergio happy and Lee getting the ultimate last laugh) .

FCA-PSA-Ford is better than FCA-Renault-Nissan-Mitsubishi
He is close with other automotive heirs -- Ford Motor Chairman Bill Ford is a friend
Ford Motor Co. is suspending its cash dividend, tapping credit lines to raise additional cash and withdrawing previous financial guidance amid the coronavirus pandemic.

The automaker said Thursday it will borrow the total unused amounts against two lines of credit: $13.4 billion under a corporate credit facility and $2 billion under a supplemental credit facility.
Ford has paid a quarterly cash dividend of 15 cents per share since 2016, costing the automaker roughly $2.4 billion per year, according to a spokesman. It was producing a roughly 6.5 percent annual divided yield earlier this year before the coronavirus pandemic sent global equity markets tumbling. Ford shares fell 7 percent in early trading Thursday to $4.15.
