As we learned yesterday, every automaker owns every other automaker and it's just a matter of who gets the biggest piece of the pie. And now that the Tata-Land Rover-Jag-Ford deal is all-but complete, we can officially anoint Ratan Tata as the hungriest hippo in the automotive world. We'd also point out that the main Tata hinted at getting a stake in Ferrari next. With the impending Nano and a gigantic market, can he be stopped?
Eventually, but not for a while. In the meantime, he seems to be positioned to take advantage of the fact that certain other automakers aren't prospering and have extra brands for sale. Let's pretend your Tata's main business advisor and he's got an appetite for car companies. Who's next?
