This comes shortly after Chrysler drew on it’s available $2 billion line of credit. Issued by Daimler, and Cerberus management, it gave Chrysler a loan at just 7 points above prime.

This is a significant move, as Chrysler lost $1.6 billion in 2007, yet managed to keep over $9 billion in cash.

Fitch Ratings cut Chrysler and GM in it’s review, as both face serious problems in their business.

It is believed that there have been talks about a possible spinoff of Chrysler from Cerberus Financial, although Cerberus denies these allegations.
