RE :”Being generous to GM, assume the company should trade on the same price-to-earnings multiple as Ford — 6.4 times next year’s consensus earnings estimates, according to Reuters. The U.S. Treasury converted $43 billion of emergency loans into a 61 percent equity stake in the revamped GM that emerged from Chapter 11. That means the Motown manufacturer has to be worth about $70 billion for Uncle Sam to break even.

This is Democrats call a ‘success’. Better yet, GM is shipping jobs to Mexico using the TARP money to open plants there.

Partially owned by the government...

Under the management of Barack Hoover Obama...

The unions are in partial control...

They’re moving some operations to Mexico...

They government tries to destroy other companies to gain market share...

GM, enough is enough. Good riddance...

Ahahahahaha.

Funniest thing I’ve heard of in a long time.

Ahahahahahaha.

Yeah, their revenue is what, 5 billion this year? They’ll then be worth about 2x what Ford is, not 6.5x.

I could see an argument for valuing them at par with Ford.
