Tire Talk blog forecasts economic recovery

March 20, 2009

Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke says the recession will probably end later this year, but that prediction is unrealistic, if you believe two tire company execs who spoke at last month's OTR Tire Conference.

Both Debbie Corzine, market research manager for Michelin North America Inc., and Gary Nash, director of OTR sales for Yokohama Tire Corp., told attendees at last month's OTR Tire Conference that a number of things need to be in place before we see a rebound.

MTD Senior Editor Mike Manges examines what those things are in the latest installment of his "Tire Talk with Mike" blog on www.moderntiredealer.com, available now!
