Barron’s reported on January 21 that General Motors Company (NYSE:GM) stock increased 5% to $53.50 on Tuesday, after an optimistic research note from Deutsche Bank. General Motors Company (NYSE:GM)’s aggressive share buybacks, reorganization of its Cruise division, and efforts to reduce costs in China were the reasons given by analyst Edison Yu for upgrading the company to “Buy” with a $60 price objective. The company just repurchased $16 billion worth of stock, which is a significant move considering its market value of $55 billion. Investor optimism got a boost from President Trump’s auto industry measures.

Hotchkis & Wiley Large Cap Value Fund stated the following regarding General Motors Company (NYSE:GM) in its Q3 2024 investor letter:

“General Motors Company (NYSE:GM) is one of the world’s largest manufacturers of passenger vehicles. GM reported a strong Q2; however, management provided a cautious outlook for the second half of 2024. Comments from GM mirrored those of other OEMs and auto suppliers, leading investors to believe the automotive cycle has peaked. We believe this is an overreaction, and we continue to view GM as an attractive investment. We like GM for many reasons. First, we believe GM has leading market positions in its main business segments. Second, the valuation is extremely attractive. Finally, it is a strong free cash flow generator, and the management team is committed to repurchasing their undervalued shares.”

Natixis Global Asset Management’s Harris Associates was the largest stakeholder in the company among the funds in Insider Monkey’s database. It owns 32.37 million shares worth $1.45 billion as of Q3.
