cerberus daimler

Daimler has already admitted that its 19.9% share in Chrysler is worth absolutely zero as far as its corporate balance sheets are concerned, but that's not stopping Cerberus from going after that remaining bit as it tries to become the sole owner of the beleaguered American automaker. Without full control of Chrysler, Cerberus would have a tough time offloading it in either one lump deal or in smaller, bit-by-bit transactions. But it sounds like Chrysler's majority owner isn't making life easy for Daimler, accusing the German entity of providing incomplete information about Chrysler and prolonging the actual sale that took place late in 2007. As you'd expect, Daimler is denying these accusations completely and is claiming that Cerberus is making outlandish demands to take the rest of the company off its German hands.
