Even for something as ordsprog

Consumer spending is heavily devoted to hard goods. That implies for the most part that home-oriented things have been doing well for some time, ... Home sales have been skyrocketing. Every time a home changes hands, tens of thousands of dollars are spent on decorating, furnishings, adding new kitchens and bathrooms.

I've seen very little details about the Volkswagen stake. Porsche spent almost half of annual revenue. I want more details.
