Porsche plans to get 51% before the end of the year and later to get 74.1 %.

That is quite different from what you said.

Get the facts straight before extrapolating.

step 1) Go to google
step 2) Type in Porsche 74.1%
step 3) shut up

Currently working for a world leading hedge fund- I have all the news that matters!! You all know Hedge Funds control the world!!

Or Porsche increases the price of all VW's to Porsche levels and you can no longer afford a VW.

It would seem more logical to continue with their proven strategy than to devalue their brand.
