No, it's the reality of recent years, and one reason why economies
aren't as stable as they use to be.

If it was a zero sum game, no reasonable company would bother merging
or buying another. It makes no economic sense if you can't leverage the
action for more than the sum of the two.

The WSJ had a little more information on Onyx.
They are purchasing aviation assests where they can find them.
They purchased a former Boeing division and are not contracting with
Boeing to produce fuselages.
The Raytheon Beechcraft contract works and new carbon fiber facilities
tie in nicely with this model.
I believe there are a couple of other companies they have purchased
which are also in this line of work.
Onyx is also in a hostile takeover bid for Quantas.

Sounds like they have a plan they aren't telling anyone about.

It is indeed a zero sum game. What people in the financial world try
to do is shift the money away from others and towards themselves.
They don't actually produce anything in the process. When they win,
someone loses.
