Is Whirlpool Screwing a Buddy?
Fisher & Paykel CEO John Bongard denies having any knowledge of or being aware of or even being lucidly cognizant of any attempt by Whirlpool to takeover Fisher & Paykel. This reported by Bloomberg.com on Jan 16. The denial was a necessary response to a report in the New Zealand Sunday Star-Times. Whirlpool and Fisher & Paykel have been working together under a far reaching and friendly agreement. A very friendly agreement. Our opinion is this: If John doesn't know, it isn't happening. If it's happening, then John knows......and finally, only John knows if it's happening !!! My head hurts.
If we are wrong, and Whirlpool is secretly buying out a friend..........well just you know, that we at ApplianceAdvisor are going to find Whirlpool President and CEO Jeffrey Maurice Fettig's mother, and tell her all about what her son has been up to.
