What is GM?
The real GM went 'bankrupt,' that is the truth of it. Wrap it any way you want, one of the most powerful and biggest companies in United States history went belly up. Investors lost billions and billions!! I would know!
Now it is all being covered up, everybody thinks all of General Motors Coorporation was saved. Hello, that did not happen. The old company is worth like 4 cents a share now, down from almost $100 a share. What a loss! To assist with the confusion, this new business is given the ticker symbol for the 'real General Motors,' GM. While the 'real General Motors' is shifted to this rediculous MTLQQ.PK ticker symbol.
And, then to complicate things billions of tax payer money was wasted on this.
And, to complicate it even more. Ford needs to try to compete against this government subsidized/owned company.
What a mess.
