GM - General Motors

Man, I feel like a fool on my earlier comment on keeping on the long term with GM.
If Nikola is turning into GM’s WeWork, at least they didn’t pay much for it.

Trevor out at NKLA. Time for Barra to be out too and a complete shake up at GM with some new DNA management team.

So much for due diligence. I agree heads need to roll.

I spent many years doing due diligence on deals. legal and business.  I can't think of a bigger DD screw up than this. there used to be a joke that you "should make sure that there is no moving truck in the parking lot" when you do DD.  I guess the joke is now changed to "and be sure that there isn't an electric cable coming out of the truck". this says to me that GM is way behind in EV, and let its panic cloud a fairly simple business DD job.  this is not about accounting fraud not being discovered...this is about not asking someone to turn the ignition switch on in the truck prototype.

What's the screwup? How much money did GM throw out the door? How is GM way behind EV when they were providing the technology? The commenters on this forum have simply not done their own DD.

Right on RadMan. Sometimes I feel like this is a glorified version of Twitter.

I have followed GM more closely after being involved in Nikola, and wow, GM seems to make some really stupid moves.  Their partnership with Nikola should basically make them uninvestable.
