Both banks are still licking their wounds - 10 years later. Commerzbank looks a bit healthier than Deutsche Bank at the moment. **Do you think a merger is beneficial?** ---stratton.npc (46)in #dpoll • 5 years agoTesla Q2 Results: red or black?Tesla is a company some people love and others love to hate it.
