koolkinkajou | Is GM Stock a Good Buy now? |
This has been asked before but new news came out today about it going to zero.

If GM goes bankrupt all the Union contracts will go out the door. I don't think the Democrats will let their biggest supporters down? |

If you want to know what stock you should be investing in I would suggest American International Group (AIG) it has hit it lowest and has just started the rise back to the top. Invest all you can spare into this instant money maker. I am a professional stock broker for tdameritrade.com and i have been putting 50% of all my clients' money into AIG and I have to tell you the chance is closing on getting a major deal on the stock it is rising fast and will double within the next month. If your looking for a site to do your trading you could try tdameritrade its a nice web site for both professional and casual trading. There are many online trading venues though and I have to say they are pretty much all the same. |

I'd say no. They're in a dire need of cash. So no. |

think about it like this. When the company is asking desperately for the government to bail them out(like A.I.G and other financials) will the stock do better? Probably not. If you are young and you hear good, reassuring news about G.M., go for it. If you older and closer to your retirement, dont even touch the clicker to buy xxx amount of shares of G.M. The auto industry is a mess and I (even at 12 years old) wouldn't buy them just yet
And to clear things up, yes im 12, but in my portforlio i made a hefty percentage profit, but really dont take financial advice on yahoo answers. people would love to see other people fall poor |

Generally you want to buy companies that are making money not losing money.
It all depends if you think they are likely to be making money in the future..... and not go bust first. |

All the big 3 are at risk of bankruptcy. They are all so deeply in debt that they can not tolerate even a slowdown let alone a full blown recession.
They can not survive a drop in the average price of vehicles sold, nor the number sold that persists, and the customers must have both.
Not only is the stock likely to go to zero, the debt they are carrying is not likely ever to be paid off at even close to 100% of face value.
A bailout package would likely allow a dividend payout. and that is likely all the shareholders will ever get.
Pension funds will be well and truly underfunded at bankruptcy, and suppliers too will be hit for major losses.
Bankruptcy protection if it worked through a major 'forgiveness' of debt could be the one remaining escape route. But that means stock going to zero and new stock issued to bond holders. |

Don't listen to anyone with news or an opinion. Learn how to do chart analysis and do your own research. Remember that news is usually already priced into a stock and opinions are often biased. Do your own due diligence. |

Think like Warren Buffet thinks. He looks for companies that have always done well and have good products/managment, then he waits till they are at a low.
GM is at a low but, is it managed well? It has been over 35 years since the Arab Oil embargo and they still decide to produce huge gas guzzlers. I think they don't have a clue as to what people want. Based on this info, they aren't just in a minor slump, they're going where they belong, bankrupt. |

The concise answer is....it depends.
Do you have the stomach for high risk/high yield investments? Or are you more of a fan of low risk/steady yields?
GM is an extremely high risk investment right now. If I had to make a prediction, I would say that one of the big three auto companies is not going to exist anymore a year from now. Now come the questions. Which one will be the one that bites the dust? How will it bite the dust? Will it be forced to declare bankruptcy like Circuit City did today? Will it be bought out before that happens? Who has the money to buy them out right now?
If GM is forced to declare bankruptcy, which is entirely possible at this point, your stock will become worthless. Therefore, I can't advise you to buy. However, if you are in the mood for a roller coaster, be my guest. A lot of money has been made this year on Bear Stearns, AIG, and others. No one know for sure what will happen. |

It depends on how old you are and how long you'd be willing to wait. If you own GM stocks and they go bankrupt your shares will become worthless. That being I said I doubt the Gov will let it happen, I'm sure that they will end up getting some low cost loans or some kind of help. If you don't need the money for awhile it could be a fantastic investment. |

You can anticipate that GM WILL receive help from the government - if not now, then from the incoming Democratic administration. This is a virtual given for political reasons alone - not to mention the economic necessity to prevent Lehman-like damage that would spread on a far greater scale.
What we cannot anticipate is whether people will/will want to buy GM cars more than they will want to buy other makers' cars. I don't believe so.
The Chrysler example in the past makes this one tempting.
The difficulty is that ALL the auto makers are near broke, and ALL are asking for help, and ALL of the economy is negatively impacted at present.
In Chrysler's 1980s situation it was the rest of the economy that started helping to pull Chrysler up when they started getting their K cars in production and abandoned the "no appeal" models of their past. That's not the same issue as today.
Deutsche Bank projected GM's value today at zero. If they go bankrupt, why would you want to own them? What plans have you seen that indicate they're a better investment than other auto makers, let alone other companies in today's market? Those are the questions that lead me elsewhere. |

No it is not a good buy. It doesnt matter how low the stock gets if its never going to turn around. |

You should have purchased Ford after gm went bankrupt, I bought it for $1.48, and it is now at $16.77. gm should have to start from scratch, many of my friends (old gm employees) had purchased gm stock due to their misdirected love and support of gm. gm "old stock" fell to $1.25 when gm filed bankrupt leaving those proud retired gm workers broke. Their respect for their company has left thousands broke in their senior years. |
