when the Board stops the dividend it drops to $5.00 and that is too much for a company with -$41 Billion shareholder value. Red Ink Rick has done a job selling us off, burying us in debt, and mismanaging the firm.

If the Volt and E-Flex turn out to be all they are being touted and more, I wonder if this trend will reverse? I suspect that E-Flex could be a real game changer.

hopes and dreams. the past indicates clearly that this management cannot be trusted or relied upon. quit dreaming and join the call to remove Red Ink Rick while there still is a GM.

Re: GM Stock - $12.91 and still falling

Starting to sound like a good buying opportunity.

I think Waggoner was just unfortunate enough to be head of GM while oil prices skyrocketed.

I agree, but not just yet. I think that the price might drop a bit more, but I don't suspect that it will fall below $10. Unfortunately it has taken a big hit recently due to many factors, but it will rebound in time. I don't believe that Lutz or Wagoner need to be replaced, but there must be other managers that aren't doing their job.

Re: GM Stock - $12.91 and still falling

I think GM stock is a buy soon but I would wait a little longer. Global sales are still strong in spite of what is happening in the U.S. but if sales in emerging markets starts to slow also, GM is in bigger trouble and that's what the market is pricing in now.

Re: GM Stock - $12.91 and still falling

Let's wait and see how GM rides out not being able to rely on SUV and Truck profits before we make any wild financial decisions either way.

Remember when you lose in the stock market, someone else wins... I'd hate to line the pockets of guys shorting GM stock.

It wasn't long ago when people were saying "Buy Ford, it can only go up from 7 dollars"...

Ford market cap: 12.06 billion

GM market cap: 7.62 billion

Ford's been way more valuable than GM for a long time now.

yeah I just about fell out of my chair when I saw that because yesterday it was mid 5's...Course I DID fall out of my chair at GM in the 12's, was in the 20's just a month or two ago. There are calls for pulling GM off the Dow Industrial Average and (get this) replacing it with Toyota or Honda!!!! Not kidding:

The comments are good, though.
Basically they're saying the guy's a moron who's trying to make the Dow look better than it is.

I liked the comment about the Dow Jones INDUSTRIAL Average and how they shouldn't have non-industrial companies on there. Of course the way things are going they're going to be hard pressed to find a U.S. industrial company...

Exactly.

Depending on this and that, you can now take some day trading money and go long.

Next three months are going to offer some 'interesting' opportunities concerning GM.
