I remember this, Chrysler was on the brink. Mostly this was because they made huge cars and the oil embargo suddenly made gas guzzlers unpopular.
Lee Iacoca, was brought in to rescue it.
The stock was in the tank. I was sure Carter was going to bail them out, so I bought some Chrysler stock with earnings from a summer job. 2 months later the bail out was announced, and I tripled my money in 3 months. it was my first stock market experience. I was 14.
