I know I don't pay much attention to Ducati, but I had no idea they were owned by Audi/VW. Crazy.

My $. 00002......

Several leading economic indicators are predicting another slow down for the world economy, not all, just some. My bet, if someone comes along to with CASH, to buy it, it'll sell.

VW is bleeding cash, sales are still well off. Latest data suggest their most loyal base, their diesel customers, are returning to VW at rates below 40% globally. They'd be very dumb to not see the economy weakening, know how cash intensive world wide manufacturing is, and now that 2-3 billion in cash right now could make or break their next 10 years.
