What counted as right

Status
resolved
Settled on
2022-09-26

Ford Motor Co files for bankruptcy or ceases as a going concern on or before 2022-09-26

Criterion is a negative event ('files for bankruptcy or ceases as a going concern on or before 2022-09-26') that did not occur; resolution date = deadline. Ford never filed Chapter 11 and remained a solvent going concern. Criterion NOT met (prediction failed) — outcome value assignment deferred to scoring stage.

Evidence of what happened

  • Ford Motor Company did not file for bankruptcy and did not cease as a going concern by the 2022-09-26 deadline. Ford is famously the only major U.S. automaker never to have filed for bankruptcy (it declined a Chapter 11 filing even during the 2008–09 crisis, when GM and Chrysler did file). It remained an operating, publicly listed going concern throughout 2020–2022.

    Evidence

  • Ford was profitable and operating normally through this period (reporting full-year net income for FY2021), with no bankruptcy petition on record for the corporation.
