General Motors Company (GM): The Biggest Earnings Takeaways

GM, of course, selling very well in China overall, the market share leader there along with VW. Overall, nothing should change your thesis about GM this quarter, I don’t think. If you’re bullish on it in the long term, you should remain bullish on it. This is not a quarter to go out and sell, sell, sell, or a quarter to necessarily go out and buy, buy, buy if you weren’t sure before.

But I think this is overall a solid quarter. GM continues to move toward their goal of common platforms, reducing costs. Keep an eye on what I mentioned, Europe especially. Keep an eye on the Japanese auto makers coming in, and on those margins, especially in North America.

Andrew: Yeah, definitely a few things for an investor really to key on. Thanks for your insight, Brendan. Thanks for watching, folks, and we’ll see you at Fool.com.
