Right now, the federal government owns 500,000,000 shares of GM, or about 26% of the company. It would need to get about $53.00/share for these to break even on the bailout, but the stock closed at only $20.21/share on Tuesday. This left the government holding $10.1 billion worth of stock, and sitting on an unrealized loss of $16.4 billion.

Right now, the government’s GM stock is worth about 39% less than it was on November 17, 2010, when the company went public at $33.00/share. However, during the intervening time, the Dow Jones Industrial Average has risen by almost 20%, so GM shares have lost 49% of their value relative to the Dow.

Fridays close $28.18 - they should be out of business along with GE and Chrysler (add => BOA, Chase, Citi). Every time an Ally Bank commercial comes on the business channel I want to puke. With Govco as an owne,r most assuredly price manipulation is in play.

That U.S. tax payers so willingly support either Bama or GM in this theft is astonishing. My god we bought 60% of the company so GM could continue to port it's manufacturing to China. I would not drive one of their piles of **** if it were given to me.
