"The New York Times highlights Chrysler's weak month-end sales, which fell 48 percent in April. "The decline, reported Friday, was the biggest drop among major automakers, and considerably worse than the industry average of 34 percent compared to a year ago," the paper says. But the company's bankruptcy filing Thursday, followed by a speech by President Obama that encouraged consumers to buy American-made cars, was a boon for the automaker. That day, the company had 11,400 sales, or approximately 15 percent of its total for the month. "We closed a lot of deals after the fact," said Steven Landry, Chrysler's executive vice president for North American sales."
