If so, you're shit out of luck. GM will inevitably file for bankruptcy on Monday.

I used to have GM's stock a couple years ago, then sold it for a small profit. Starting from then, it kept spiraling out of control. If any of you still held onto its stock until now, you ain't right in the head. It virtually became worthless on Thursday. I can't imagine how many people lost money with that stock.

The signs have pointed strongly towards bk for a while now. Anyone who still has their money in there is either A) a gambler or B) negligent.

If anybody did have the stock they have all committed suicide and cannot post on S2ki.com anymore.

I've never had so many people ask me about buying a single stock than GM over the past 3-6 months. I told everyone of them they were idiots and a couple called me this past week and thanked me like I'd saved their kid's life.

On a different note, Ford will undoubtedly benefit from this.
So will Honda. Our local dealer had a record May.

its been de-listed. wont be traded for 6months to a year. government owns 60% now, but GM will still make the decisions.

GM is building great cars right now, with a great warranty and with great incentives, and it wouldnt stop me from buying a GM product at all. im a GM fan, and always will be.

they'll be fine, it will be hard for awhile longer.
