It is reported that an assembly line of GM in Canada has been closed influenced by the strike in US. The analysts said that GM will suffer a great loss of 8 billion US dollars if this strike lasts above one month. In 1998, GM was hit by the strike and lost about 2.2 billion dollars. That strike lasted 54 days. Do you think this strike will last for a long time? What is the fuse of the strike?
