General Motors (NYSE:GM) Bolsa, Informe de interés en corto

General Motors

General Motors Co. emerged from the bankruptcy of General Motors Corp. (old GM) in July 2009. GM has eight brands and operates under four segments: GM North America, GM International, Cruise, and GM Financial. The United States now has four brands instead of eight under old GM. The company regained its us market share leader crown in 2022, after losing it to Toyota due to the chip shortage in 2021. 2023's share was 16.5%. GM's Cruise autonomous vehicle arm has previously done driverless geofenced AV robotaxi services in San Francisco and other cities but after a 2023 accident GM decided in December 2024 that it will focus on AVs in personal vehicles. GM should own 100% of Cruise by 2025. GM Financial became the company's captive finance arm in October 2010 via the purchase of AmeriCredit.

In a December meeting that will be remembered for its seismic impact on markets, the Federal Reserve delivered a widely anticipated 25-basis-point interest rate cut Wednesday, bringing the target <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/econ-s/24/12/42561549/fed-slashes-interest-rates-by-0-25-as-predicted-december-dot-plot-flags-only-2-potential-cuts-in-2025">range to 4.25%-4.5%.</a>
Yet, it wasn't the rate cut itself that shocked Wall Street: it was the Fed&#8217;s revised economic forecasts and Chair Jerome Powell's stance that crushed expectations for deeper rate cuts in 2025.
In its December economic forecasts, the Fed raised inflation projections for 2025, signaling that only two rate cuts might be on the table for the year. This marked a dramatic shift from the expectations that had fueled investor optimism in recent weeks.
Powell cemented this hawkish tone during the press conference, stating that after a 100-basis-point reduction in 2024, the Fed would enter a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/economics/macro-economic-events/24/12/42563299/feds-powell-shocks-markets-its-a-new-phase-were-significantly-closer-to-neutral">&#8220;new phase&#8221; of monetary policy</a>. With rates nearing neutral levels, Powell emphasized the importance of a cautious approach, erasing any lingering hopes for aggressive easing.
In true Grinch fashion, Powell's message drained investor hopes for a Santa Claus Rally, a seasonal market trend that sees equities showing strong gains in the second half of December.
The S&amp;P 500 — as tracked by the SPDR S&amp;P 500 ETF Trust (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SPY#NYSE">SPY</a>) — tumbled 3%, recording its worst single-day drop since September 2022, while the U.S. Dollar Index surged to a two-year high as <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/econ-s/24/12/42564807/powell-triggers-market-carnage-vix-spikes-58-stocks-plummet-dollar-hits-2-year-highs-bitcoin-nosedives">investors recalibrated their expectations</a>.
Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) demonstrated significant sensitivity to macroeconomic developments, dropping below $100,000 after reaching a record high of $108,388 one day prior to the Federal Reserve meeting.
Friday brought a brief reprieve as the Fed's preferred inflation gauge for November came <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/economics/macro-economic-events/24/12/42619788/market-volatility-halts-on-soft-inflation-data-yet-traders-remain-wary-of-fighting-the-fed-10-etfs-moving-friday">in lower than expected.</a> Yet the Fed's sting has left lingering wounds that only sustained progress in disinflation can heal.
The focus now shifts to 2025. Investors are bracing for the fiscal policies of the incoming Trump administration, the potential for a government shutdown and the broader implications of Fed monetary policy.

ChargePoint Inks Pact With General Motors - Eyes Installing Ultra-fast Charging Ports At Key Locations

ChargePoint And GM To Install Hundreds Of Charging Ports Across The US

Canadian Finance Minister Chrystia Freeland resigned Monday, citing disagreements with Prime Minister Justin Trudeau over <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/global/24/12/42475000/if-trump-starts-a-trade-war-canada-could-impose-export-taxes-on-oil-uranium-report">anticipated U.S. tariffs.</a>
What Happened? Freeland, who also held the position of Deputy Prime Minister, resigned hours before she was due to deliver an economic update to the parliament. In a letter to Trudeau, Freeland <a href="https://x.com/cafreeland/status/1868659332285702167">noted</a> she made this decision after his suggestion to take a different position within his Cabinet.
She also reflected on President-elect Donald Trump's proposed 25% tariffs.
"We need to take that threat extremely seriously. That means keeping our fiscal powder dry today, so we have the reserves we may need for a coming tariff war," she wrote.
Freeland, a veteran journalist and a key member of Trudeau's cabinet since 2015 has held multiple high-profile roles, including Minister of Foreign Affairs. Interestingly, her predecessor, Bill Morneau, resigned over a fallout with Trudeau in 2020 as they clashed over issues with COVID-19-related income support programs.
Meanwhile, Housing Minister Sean Fraser will not seek re-election in Nova Scotia and will leave the federal cabinet during the next shuffle, <a href="https://www.cbc.ca/player/play/video/9.6593309">per</a> CBC News. The shuffle, which could happen as early as Wednesday, could see former Bank of Canada and Bank of England governor Mark Carney joining the cabinet.&nbsp;
Why It Matters? Freeland's departure signals further weakening of Trudeau's government ahead of the election year.
As a widely respected figure, she was critical in securing Canada's trade interests and the architect of Canada's response to the U.S.-Mexico-Canada Agreement renegotiation during Trump's first term. With Freeland's exit, Trudeau loses a highly skilled negotiator at a pivotal time in international trade relations and domestic economic challenges.
Trudeau maintains the stance that imposing tariffs would hurt both sides.
"Let's not kid ourselves in any way, shape or form, 25% tariffs on everything going to the United States would be devastating for the Canadian economy," Trudeau said <a href="https://apnews.com/article/canada-trudeau-us-trump-tariffs-f23417b8f6671adf6b4c908be630615f">per</a> AP News, clarifying how tariffs on Canadian energy and various commodity exports would make life more expensive in the U.S.
Between November 2023 and October 2024, Canada exported over C$172 billion ($120.74 billion) worth of energy products to the U.S. and C$80.4 billion ($56.44 billion) worth of motor vehicles and parts. Ford Motor Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/F#NYSE">F</a>) and General Motors (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GM#NYSE">GM</a>) have notable operations in Canada, as do foreign manufacturers like Fiat Chrysler Automobiles, Honda, and Toyota.
The internal crisis has driven down the Liberal Party's popularity. Polls <a href="https://newsinteractives.cbc.ca/elections/poll-tracker/canada/">show</a> Trudeau's government trails significantly behind the Conservative Party, with the next federal election due by October 2025.
Market Reaction: USD/CAD rose 0.11% for the day, closing the trading session at 1.4241. Since Donald Trump&#8217;s re-election, the pair rose around 3%.

The recommendations, which have not been previously reported, come as the U.S. electric-vehicle transition stalls and China's heavily subsidized EV industry continues to surge, in part because of its superior battery supply chain. On the campaign trail, Trump vowed to ease regulations on fossil-fuel cars and roll back what he called President <a href="https://www.reuters.com/topic/person/joe-biden/">Joe Biden</a>'s EV mandate.
The transition team also recommends imposing tariffs on all battery materials globally, a bid to boost U.S. production, and then negotiating individual exemptions with allies, the document shows.
Taken together, the recommendations are a stark departure from Biden administration policy, which sought to balance encouraging a domestic battery supply chain, separate from China, with a rapid EV transition. The transition-team plan would redirect money now flowing to building charging stations and making EVs affordable into national-defense priorities, including securing China-free supplies of batteries and the critical minerals to build them.
The proposals came from a Trump transition team charged with crafting a strategy for swift implementation of new automotive policies. The team also calls for <a href="https://www.reuters.com/business/autos-transportation/trumps-transition-team-aims-kill-biden-ev-tax-credit-2024-11-14/">eliminating the Biden administration's $7,500 tax credit</a> for consumer EV purchases, a plan that Reuters first reported last month. The policies could strike a blow to U.S. EV sales and production at a time when many legacy automakers, including General Motors <a href="https://www.reuters.com/markets/companies/GM.N">(GM.N), opens new tab</a> and Hyundai <a href="https://www.reuters.com/markets/companies/005380.KS">(005380.KS), opens new tab</a>, have recently introduced a wider array of electric offerings to the U.S. market.
Cutting government EV support could also hurt sales of <a href="https://www.reuters.com/business/elon-musk/">Elon Musk</a>'s Tesla <a href="https://www.reuters.com/markets/companies/TSLA.O">(TSLA.O), opens new tab</a>, the dominant U.S. EV seller. But Musk, who <a href="https://www.reuters.com/world/us/musk-spent-over-quarter-billion-dollars-help-elect-trump-2024-12-06/">spent more than a quarter-billion dollars</a> helping to elect Trump, has said that losing subsidies would hurt rivals more than Tesla.
The transition team calls for clawing back whatever funds remain from Biden's $7.5 billion plan to build charging stations and shifting the money to battery-minerals processing and the "national defense supply chain and critical infrastructure."
&nbsp;
While batteries, minerals and other EV components are "critical to defense production," electric vehicles "and charging stations are not," the document says.
The Defense Department in recent years has highlighted U.S. strategic vulnerabilities because of China's dominance of the mining and refining of critical minerals, including graphite and lithium needed for batteries, and rare-earth metals used in both EV motors and military aircraft.
A 2021 government report said the U.S. military faces "escalating power requirements" for weapons and communication equipment, among other technologies. "Assured sources of critical minerals and materials" are "critical to U.S. national security," the report found.
Trump transition spokeswoman Karoline Leavitt said voters gave Trump a mandate to deliver on campaign promises, including stopping government attacks on gas-powered cars.
"When he takes office, President Trump will support the auto industry, allowing space for both gas-powered cars and electric vehicles," Leavitt said in a statement.
<h2>ALLOWING MORE TAILPIPE POLLUTION</h2>
Automakers globally have been shifting toward electric vehicles in part to comply with stricter government limits on climate-damaging tailpipe pollution.
But the transition team recommendations would allow automakers to produce more gas-powered vehicles by rolling back emissions and fuel-economy standards championed by the Biden administration. The transition team proposes shifting those regulations back to 2019 levels, which would allow an average of about 25% more emissions per vehicle mile than the current 2025 limits and average fuel economy to be about 15% lower.
The proposal also recommends blocking California from <a href="https://www.reuters.com/legal/us-supreme-court-hear-dispute-over-california-tailpipe-emissions-ev-standards-2024-12-13/">setting its own, stricter vehicle-emissions standards</a>, which more than a dozen other states have adopted. Trump barred California from setting tougher requirements during his first term, a policy that Biden reversed.
California has asked the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency for another waiver to incorporate a stronger set of requirements beginning in 2026, which would eventually require all vehicles to be electric, plug-in hybrid or hydrogen-powered by 2035. The Biden administration's EPA has not approved California's request.
Many of the transition-team proposals appear aimed at encouraging domestic battery production, primarily for defense-related interests. Others appear aimed at protecting automakers, even those producing EVs, in the United States.
The proposals include:
– Instituting tariffs on "EV supply chain" imports including batteries, critical minerals and charging components. The proposal viewed by Reuters said the administration should use Section 232 tariffs, which target national security threats, to limit imports of such products.
The Biden administration recently increased tariffs on Chinese imports of several mentioned in the Trump-transition document, including lithium-ion batteries, graphite and "permanent magnets" used in EV motors and military applications. Those tariffs were issued on economic rather than security grounds.
– Waiving environmental reviews to speed up "federally funded EV infrastructure projects," including battery recycling and production, charging stations and critical mineral manufacturing.
– Expanding export restrictions on EV battery technology to adversarial nations.
– Providing support for exports of U.S.-made EV batteries through the Export-Import Bank of the United States.
– Using tariffs as a "negotiating tool" to open foreign markets to U.S. auto exports, including EVs.
– Eliminating requirements that federal agencies purchase EVs. A Biden policy requires all federal acquisitions of cars and smaller trucks to be zero-emission vehicles by the end of 2027.
– Ending DOD programs aimed at purchasing or developing electric military vehicles.

Wells Fargo Maintains Underweight on General Motors, Lowers Price Target to $35

The tech-heavy Nasdaq 100 index – as tracked by the Invesco QQQ Trust (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/QQQ#NASDAQ">QQQ</a>) – extended its relentless climb this week, setting new record highs and nearing the 22,000-point milestone, fueled by strong investor optimism in the Magnificent Seven tech giants and the transformative <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/large-cap/24/12/42447567/magnificent-seven-tech-titans-hit-182-trillion-market-cap-alphabet-amazon-apple-meta-tesla-jointly-notch-all-time-highs">potential of artificial intelligence.</a>
Year-to-date, the index has posted a robust 30% gain, on track to outperform the S&amp;P 500 for the ninth time in the last decade.
Since the start of 2023, the Nasdaq 100 is on track to double, nearing a 100% gain &#8211; a performance last achieved in 2019-2020 with a 102% rise and previously hit during the dot-com boom of 1998-1999.
Notably, five out of the seven Magnificent Seven stocks— Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>), Amazon.com Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZN#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>), Alphabet Inc.

(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) — achieved fresh record highs this week. The combined market capitalization of the group exceeded $18 trillion, surpassing China's gross domestic product at the end of 2023.
Broadcom Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AVGO#NASDAQ">AVGO</a>) emerged as the week's standout performer, soaring after a strong quarterly earnings beat and delivering upbeat AI-driven guidance for the coming year. The rally propelled the chipmaker into the exclusive $1 trillion market-cap club, making it the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/24/12/42488220/broadcom-hits-1-trillion-milestone-the-next-magnificent-tech-giant">eighth-largest publicly traded company.</a>
Inflation data released during the week raised some red flags. Consumer inflation rose 2.7% year-over-year in November, in line with expectations, but producer inflation jumped to 3% year-over-year, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/treasuries/24/12/42460477/producer-inflation-rises-more-than-expected-to-3-in-november-cast-shadow-on-further-disinflation-progress">exceeding estimates of 2.6%.</a> This marked the sharpest increase since February 2023, raising concerns about potential cost pass-throughs to consumers.
Investors are fully pricing in a 25-basis-point interest rate cut at the Federal Reserve&#8217;s Dec. 18 meeting. Yet policymakers may signal fewer rate cuts for 2025 — potentially just three — while leaving open the possibility of a pause as early as January.

AI-Driven Rally Pushes Tech Stocks To Records, Broadcom Enters Trillion-Dollar Club, Inflation Data Flashes Warning Signal: This Week In The Markets

Uber Technologies Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UBER#NYSE">UBER</a>) shares are trading lower by 7.2% to $60.64 this week. Bernstein analysts viewed General Motors Co&#8217;s (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GM#NYSE">GM</a>) winding down of Cruise as a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/12/42447067/uber-and-lyft-are-falling-wednesday-whats-going-on">negative for the company</a> and the viability of autonomous vehicle (AV) technology.
The decision has cast a shadow over Uber&#8217;s AV ambitions and its partnership with Cruise, heightening investor concerns.
What To Know: Uber, a global leader in ride-hailing and food delivery services, has long invested in AV technology to reduce costs and improve efficiency in its rideshare operations. However, GM&#8217;s move to shift Cruise&#8217;s resources to personal vehicle systems like Super Cruise suggests major hurdles in scaling robotaxi networks.

Bernstein analysts highlighted these challenges, noting that operating and maintaining robotaxi fleets is capital-intensive and fraught with operational complexity.
Daniel Roeska of Bernstein emphasized that GM&#8217;s decision disrupts the AV ecosystem and potentially forces Uber to shoulder the financial burden of <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/autonomous-vehicles">AV development independently</a>—an unsustainable prospect given the substantial costs involved. This scenario creates uncertainty for Uber's strategy in a field now dominated by deep-pocketed competitors like Waymo and Tesla.
Nikhil Devnani added that GM&#8217;s exit underscores doubts about the scalability and economic feasibility of robotaxi businesses, further dampening optimism around Uber&#8217;s AV initiatives. Without Cruise, Uber faces limited options in the consolidating AV market.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">How To Buy UBER Stock</h2>
Besides going to a brokerage platform to purchase a share &#8211; or fractional share &#8211; of stock, you can also gain access to shares either by buying an exchange traded fund (ETF) that holds the stock itself, or by allocating yourself to a strategy in your 401(k) that would seek to acquire shares in a mutual fund or other instrument. 
For example, in Uber Technologies&#8217; case, it is in the Industrials sector. An ETF will likely hold shares in many liquid and large companies that help track that sector, allowing an investor to gain exposure to the trends within that segment.
According to data from&nbsp;<a href="https://benzinga.grsm.io/register174">Benzinga Pro</a>, UBER has a 52-week high of $87.00 and a 52-week low of

Note the following:
<ul>
<li>This article is about the big picture, not an individual stock.&nbsp; The chart of TSLA stock is being used to illustrate the point.</li>
<li>The chart shows the run up in TSLA stock.</li>
<li>The chart shows the Arora buy signal after the election.&nbsp; As of this writing, there is 50% gain in about five weeks from the Arora buy signal in TSLA.</li>
<li>RSI on the chart shows TSLA stock is overbought.&nbsp; Overbought stocks are susceptible to a pullback.</li>
<li>The chart shows the nearest support zone.</li>
<li>TSLA stock has added $515B in value since Trump's election.&nbsp; The valuation of Tesla and SpaceX have been rising on the belief that Musk's close association with Trump will help his businesses. &nbsp; The rally in TSLA stock, along with the rising valuation of SpaceX, has made Elon Musk the first man ever to have a net worth of $400B.</li>
<li>The move yesterday in TSLA stock was initially triggered by General Motors Co&#8217;s (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GM#NYSE">GM</a>) decision to stop development of robotaxis.&nbsp; The buying in TSLA stock on the GM news caused TSLA to breakout above the prior high.&nbsp; This brought in technically oriented buyers who buy the breakouts.&nbsp; The prior high was $414.49 on November 4, 2021.</li>
<li>After yesterday's sticky Consumer Price Index data that was not worse than expected, the market was certain the Fed will cut interest rates, so investors aggressively bought big tech stocks.&nbsp; Lower interest rates are good for big tech.</li>
<li>Producer Price Index (PPI) data came hotter than expected.&nbsp; Here are the details:
<ul>
<li>Headline PPI came at 0.4% vs. 0.3% consensus.</li>
<li>Core PPI came at 0.2% vs. 0.2% consensus.</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>The reaction to PPI data is slight selling in stocks, bonds, and gold.</li>
<li>In The Arora Report analysis, the Fed is likely to ignore the hotter producer inflation data and cut interest rates next week.&nbsp;&nbsp;</li>
<li>Initial jobless claims came at 242K vs. 220K consensus. &nbsp;In The Arora Report analysis, the Fed can use this data as an excuse to cut interest rates given the Fed's dual mandate.&nbsp;</li>
<li>To understand extreme positive sentiment right now, all a prudent investor needs to do is look at the valuation of Fartcoin (CRYPTO: FARTCOIN).&nbsp; Fartcoin is now worth $500M.&nbsp; What makes Fartcoin so valuable? It produces a digital fart sound on each transaction.</li>
<li>The positive sentiment is being enhanced this morning as President-elect Trump is going to ring the opening bell at the New York Stock Exchange.</li>

Rate cuts in Europe influence the Fed to also cut interest rates.
<h4 class="wp-block-heading">Magnificent Seven Money Flows</h4>

In the early trade, money flows are negative in Amazon.com, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZN#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>), Alphabet Inc Class C (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOG#NASDAQ">GOOG</a>), Meta Platforms Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/META#NASDAQ">META</a>), Microsoft Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSFT#NASDAQ">MSFT</a>), NVIDIA Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>), and TSLA.

<h4 class="wp-block-heading">Momo Crowd And Smart Money In Stocks</h4>
Investors can gain an edge by knowing money flows in SPY and QQQ.&nbsp; Investors can get a bigger edge by knowing when smart money is buying stocks, gold, and oil.&nbsp; The most popular ETF for gold is SPDR Gold Trust (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GLD#NYSE">GLD</a>).&nbsp; The most popular ETF for silver is iShares Silver Trust (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SLV#NYSE">SLV</a>).&nbsp; The most popular ETF for oil is United States Oil ETF (ASCA:USO).
<h4 class="wp-block-heading">Bitcoin</h4>
Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) is above $100,000.
<h4 class="wp-block-heading">Protection Band And What To Do Now</h4>
It is important for investors to look ahead and not in the rearview mirror.&nbsp; The proprietary protection band from The Arora Report is very popular.&nbsp; The protection band puts all of the data, all of the indicators, all of the news, all of the crosscurrents, all of the models, and all of the analysis in an analytical framework that is easily actionable by investors.
Consider continuing to hold good, very long term, existing positions. Based on individual risk preference, consider a protection band consisting of cash or Treasury bills or short-term tactical trades as well as short to medium term hedges and short term hedges. This is a good way to protect yourself and participate in the upside at the same time.
You can determine your protection bands by adding cash to hedges.&nbsp; The high band of the protection is appropriate for those who are older or conservative. The low band of the protection is appropriate for those who are younger or aggressive.&nbsp; If you do not hedge, the total cash level should be more than stated above but significantly less than cash plus hedges.
A protection band of 0% would be very bullish and would indicate full investment with 0% in cash.&nbsp; A protection band of 100% would be very bearish and would indicate a need for aggressive protection with cash and hedges or aggressive short selling.
It is worth reminding that you cannot take advantage of new upcoming opportunities if you are not holding enough cash.&nbsp; When adjusting hedge levels, consider adjusting partial stop quantities for stock positions (non ETF); consider using wider stops on remaining quantities and also allowing more room for high beta stocks.&nbsp; High beta stocks are the ones that move more than the market.
<h4 class="wp-block-heading">Traditional 60/40 Portfolio</h4>
Probability based risk reward adjusted for inflation does not favor long duration strategic bond allocation at this time.
Those who want to stick to traditional 60% allocation to stocks and 40% to bonds may consider focusing on only high quality bonds and bonds of five year duration or less.&nbsp; Those willing to bring sophistication to their investing may consider using bond ETFs as tactical positions and not strategic positions at this time.
The Arora Report is known for its accurate calls. The Arora Report correctly called the big artificial intelligence rally before anyone else, the new bull market of 2023, the bear market of 2022, new stock market highs right after the virus low in 2020, the virus drop in 2020, the DJIA rally to 30,000 when it was trading at 16,000, the start of a mega bull market in 2009, and the financial crash of 2008.
