General Motors (NYSE:GM) Stock, Rapport sur les intérêts à découvert

GENERAL MOTORS CO

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 three segments: GM North America, GM International, and GM Financial. The United States now has four brands instead of eight under old GM. The company regained its US market share leadership in 2022, after losing it to Toyota due to the chip shortage in 2021. 2024's share was 17.0%. The Cruise autonomous vehicle arm, which GM now owns outright, previously operated driverless geofenced AV robotaxi services in San Francisco and other cities, but after a 2023 accident, GM decided that it will focus on personal AVs. GM Financial became the company's captive finance arm in 2010 via the purchase of AmeriCredit.

Rivian Automotive (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RIVN#NASDAQ">RIVN</a>) stock <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/rivian" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">traded higher on</a> Friday, a positive movement largely mirroring gains seen by industry titan Tesla (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>). 
Tesla&#8217;s stock saw gains following a Business Insider <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/tesla-robotaxi-bay-area-launch-san-francisco-memo-2025-7">report</a> indicating the imminent rollout of its robotaxi service in San Francisco this weekend. 
Despite this positive daily movement, Rivian&#8217;s year-to-date performance, with a gain of just over 6%, continues to trail the Nasdaq 100 Index&#8217;s more robust 11% return.

This contrasts sharply with Tesla, which has seen a 21% year-to-date plunge, grappling with its second consecutive quarterly sales decline and issuing a warning of &#8220;rough quarters&#8221; ahead due to the expiration of federal EV tax credits. 
Weaker automotive revenue, escalating competition (particularly in China and Europe), and a lack of 2025 guidance have further amplified investor concerns for Tesla, as reported by <a href="https://www.cnbc.com/2025/07/24/tesla-tsla-shares-today.html#:~:text=Tesla%20shares%20fell%20on%20Thursday,federal%20electric%20vehicle%20tax%20credits.">CNBC</a> on Thursday.
While Rivian&#8217;s overall year-to-date trajectory might lag, the company is actively pursuing a strategy of expansion and technological innovation. Last week, Rivian joined the prestigious Russell 1000 index, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/large-cap/25/07/46449975/rivian-unseats-lucid-draftkings-ousts-plug-power-in-russell-1000-shake-up">a significant milestone</a>, while its rival, Lucid (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LCID#NASDAQ">LCID</a>), exited the index.
Rivian is <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/movers/25/07/46478004/rivian-stock-is-trading-higher-friday-weekly-recap">accelerating its growth</a> by strengthening its U.S. and Canadian footprint. The EV manufacturer has confirmed plans to open an East Coast headquarters in Atlanta, Georgia, by late 2025. 
This new office will complement its ongoing $5 billion manufacturing facility development in nearby Social Circle and is expected to initially employ 100 people, eventually scaling to 500. 
Furthermore, Rivian recently broke ground in Laval, Québec, Canada, on a new service center in partnership with Montoni Group. This facility, built by local partners, aims to enhance after-sales support and is another step in Rivian&#8217;s broader North American expansion strategy.
In terms of technological advancements, Rivian continues to enhance the EV driving experience. The company recently unveiled a next-generation in-car navigation system co-developed with Alphabet&#8217;s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOGL#NASDAQ">GOOGL</a>) Google. 
This integration of Google Maps&#8217; Auto SDK provides improved route planning, more detailed energy monitoring through an upgraded Energy app, and smart charging features launching this month, with bidirectional charging slated for 2025. Rivian has also maintained its focus on execution amid potential policy shifts. The company reaffirmed its full-year delivery guidance of 40,000 to 46,000 vehicles after delivering 10,661 units in the second quarter of 2025. 
While potential changes to fuel economy standards could impact its $325 million ZEV credit revenue stream, Rivian&#8217;s strong product roadmap, including the upcoming R2 launch in early 2026, and strategic infrastructure investments position it for long-term growth.
However, Rivian could <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/tech/25/07/46627485/trump-tariffs-are-causing-decline-in-ev-battery-demand-says-tesla-general-motors-supplier-lg" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">face major setbacks</a> as Donald Trump&#8217;s tariffs and new legislation threaten to derail EV growth in the U.S. LG Energy Solutions, a key battery supplier for Tesla and General Motors Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GM#NYSE">GM</a>), warned that the combination of new tariffs and the early end to EV subsidies will pressure automakers to hike prices, likely slowing demand across the board.
Rivian stands to lose even more under Trump&#8217;s &#8220;Big Beautiful Bill,&#8221; which scraps the $7,500 federal EV tax credit and weakens CAFE standards. That could severely impact ZEV credit sales, a key revenue stream for emerging EV players like Rivian. As industry suppliers like LG and Panasonic have already shifted production plans in response to declining demand, Rivian may struggle to stay competitive without meaningful policy support.
In other recent developments, Rivian founder and CEO RJ Scaringe <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/tech/25/07/46424013/rivian-ceo-joins-bezos-gates-divorce-club-voting-power-slashed-before-r2-debut" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">transferred about 4 million</a> shares and 6 million stock options to his ex-wife, Meagan Scaringe, as part of their divorce settlement, reducing his stake in the EV maker. The move lowers his ownership to roughly 2% and his voting power to 4%, the smallest since Rivian&#8217;s 2021 IPO. While the transfer doesn&#8217;t impact Rivian&#8217;s operations, it reshapes the company&#8217;s ownership structure ahead of its R2 launch and could factor into future acquisition scenarios.
Price Action:&nbsp;Rivian shares are trading higher by 2.28% at $14.14 at last check on Friday.

Rivian Gains On Tesla's Robotaxi Hype, But Challenges Loom

The U.S. Commerce Secretary&nbsp;Howard Lutnick&nbsp;has disclosed that American auto CEOs are in favor of President&nbsp;Donald Trump&#8217;s&nbsp;new trade deal with Japan.
What Happened:&nbsp;&nbsp;Lutnick, in an interview on&nbsp;<a href="https://www.cnbc.com/2025/07/24/lutnick-trump-japan-deal-auto-trade-tariffs.html?ref=biztoc.com">CNBC</a>&nbsp;on Thursday, stated that American auto CEOs have expressed their acceptance of the new trade agreement. The deal, announced by Trump earlier this week, could potentially levy lower tariffs on Japanese car imports compared to vehicles produced by U.S.&nbsp;companies in Canada and Mexico.
Despite objections from the American Automotive Policy Council, a group representing major U.S. automakers such as General Motors (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GM#NYSE">GM</a>), Ford (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/F#NYSE">F</a>), and Stellantis (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/STLA#NYSE">STLA</a>), Lutnick dismissed their concerns. "Oh, my God, that's just so silly," said the Commerce Secretary, emphasizing that there would be no tariffs on the U.S. automakers if they build in America.
Under the new agreement, Japan will face a 15% tariff on cars exported to the U.S., while American automakers will be hit with a 25% tariff on vehicles they produce in Canada and Mexico and bring into the U.S. This has led to a surge in the shares of Japanese automakers such as&nbsp;Toyota&nbsp;(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TM#NYSE">TM</a>),&nbsp;Honda&nbsp;(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HMC#NYSE">HMC</a>),&nbsp;Nissan&nbsp;(OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NSANY#OTC">NSANY</a>), and&nbsp;Mazda&nbsp;(OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MZDAY#OTC">MZDAY</a>).
However, Lutnick maintained that the CEOs he spoke with did not oppose the deal.

Why It Matters: This new trade agreement comes on the heels of Trump announcing a $550 billion trade deal with Japan, which is expected to create hundreds of thousands of jobs. The deal also involves Japan opening its markets to US cars, trucks, rice, and other agricultural products, while agreeing to a reciprocal tariff of 15% on US imports.
However, not everyone is optimistic about the deal. Economist Justin Wolfers argues that the deal essentially results in a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/macro-economic-events/25/07/46622277/trumps-trade-deal-with-japan-a-tax-on-americans-economist-says-not-remotely-optimistic-us-auto-companies-will-gain-as-toyota-and-honda-stocks-rally">tax increase</a> for American consumers. He further states that the narrative surrounding the deal is confusing and misleading.
Moreover, the acceptance of the deal by Japan is seen by some market commentators as a sign of a deeper <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/crypto/25/07/46594681/japan-accepting-trump-trade-deal-a-sign-of-desperation-market-commentator-says-bitcoin-and-gold-have-known-this-for-a-long-time">economic crisis</a>. They suggest that Japan accepted an unfavorable deal involving a $550 billion investment in the US, with the US receiving 90% of the profits.
Following the announcement of the deal, Japan&#8217;s 10-year bond yields surged to 1.59%, a level not seen since 2008, indicating potential economic instability.

Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick Dismisses 'Silly' Concerns Of US Automakers Over Japan Trade Deal, Says They're 'Cool' With It

South Korea's LG Energy Solutions, which is a battery supplier for U.S. automakers like Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) and General Motors Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GM#NYSE">GM</a>), says that President Donald Trump's tariffs are slowing down EV battery demand.
What Happened: "U.S. tariffs and an early end to EV subsidies will put a burden on automakers, potentially leading to vehicle price increases and a slowdown in EV growth in North America," the company's CFO Lee Chang-sil said during a call with investors, Reuters reported on Friday.
The company, which is one of the few non-Chinese producers of LFP batteries, says it will boost energy storage production and convert some U.S. EV production facilities to manufacture energy storage systems so it can offset EV demand, the report suggests.
Why It Matters: The news comes in as Trump's tariffs have had a big effect on the auto industry in the U.S., with major auto companies announcing billions in additional costs <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/long-ideas/25/07/46569949/trump-just-hammered-us-cars-with-tariffs-toyota-says-thanks">due to the tariffs</a>.
Tariffs, however, are only a part of the picture, as the administration's Big Beautiful Bill law has axed the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/tech/25/07/46595605/tesla-cfo-urges-customers-to-order-now-or-risk-delay-as-trump-nixes-7500-ev-credit">$7,500 federal EV credit</a> as well as announced <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/tech/25/07/46536292/trumps-new-zev-credit-regulations-arent-as-bad-for-elon-musk-says-piper-sandler-tesla-will-still-book-around-3-billion">relaxed CAFE norms</a>, affecting <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/tech/25/07/46385263/tesla-rival-rivian-could-lose-a-major-revenue-stream-due-to-a">ZEV credit sales</a> for EV makers like Tesla and Rivian Technologies Inc.

Trump Tariffs Are Causing Decline In EV Battery Demand, Says Tesla, General Motors Supplier LG

Economist Justin Wolfers is pushing back against the narrative surrounding President Donald Trump&#8217;s new trade agreement with Japan, arguing that the deal essentially results in a tax increase for American consumers.
What Happened: On Thursday, in a post on X, Wolfers addressed what he refers to as a &#8220;confusion in the reporting&#8221; of Trump&#8217;s latest trade deal with Japan. &#8220;So let me clarify,&#8221; he says, accompanied by a video of his recent appearance on MSNBC.
In the clip, Wolfers says, &#8220;the most important thing for viewers to think about is the framing. So if you began by saying that [the] tariff on Japan has gone from 25% to 15%, it would feel like he'd negotiated a great deal. That's not what happened here.&#8221;

Wolfers notes that the tariffs on Japanese imports were previously just 2%, &#8220;so the biggest thing Trump has done is he's raised taxes on Americans who import goods from Japan from 2% to 15%.&#8221;
The deal's potential impact on U.S. automakers is also in question, as Wolfers pushed back against claims that the deal could open up the Japanese market to American manufacturers. &#8220;I am not remotely optimistic,&#8221; he says, adding that the reason why the Japanese don&#8217;t buy American cars is that they prefer smaller cars.

Why It Matters: Fund manager Spencer Hakimian noted early this week that the announcement of the trade deal <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/market-summary/25/07/46563227/trump-trade-deal-with-japan-sends-toyota-mazda-stock-soaring-nikkei-rises-sharply">sent Japanese automaker</a> Toyota Motor Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TM#NYSE">TM</a>) soaring, despite the 15% tariffs being announced on all imports from Japan. 
He attributes this to the fact that while American automakers have to 50% more for steel and copper, on account of the tariffs, alongside similar tariffs on their production in China, Mexico and Canada, Toyota only pays 15%, and &#8220;they&#8217;re done with all the shenanigans.&#8221;
Japanese auto stocks have been rallying since the trade deal was announced, in sharp contrast to their American counterparts.

Trump's Trade Deal With Japan A Tax On Americans — Economist Says, 'Not Remotely Optimistic' US Auto Companies Will Gain As Toyota And Honda Stocks Rally

General Motors Company (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GM#NYSE">GM</a>) is navigating a complex automotive landscape, contending with rising tariffs and significant capital expenditures, yet the company remains steadfast in its projection of $7.5 billion to $10 billion in <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/earnings/25/07/46542820/general-motors-faces-tariffs-heat-margins-shrink" rel="noreferrer noopener">free cash flow for 2025</a>.
Despite a mixed second quarter, marked by a sharp drop in the company&#8217;s adjusted EBIT margins to 6.4% and a substantial $1.1 billion tariff headwind, the auto giant still surpassed revenue and earnings expectations.
However, the company anticipates a challenging second half, particularly in North America, with expected declines in wholesale volumes and increased tariff burdens, though strategic measures are in place to mitigate these impacts.

Against this backdrop, Bank Of America Securities analyst Federico Merendi reiterated the Buy rating on General Motors, lowering the price forecast from $65 to $62.
The auto behemoth registered second-quarter adjusted earnings per share of $2.53, beating the&nbsp;<a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/earnings/25/07/46542820/general-motors-faces-tariffs-heat-margins-shrink" rel="noreferrer noopener">analyst consensus estimate of $2.40</a>. Quarterly sales of $47.12 billion outpaced the Street view of $45.57 billion. Merendi highlights that China operations have now delivered two consecutive profitable quarters.
He adds that the company kept its full‑year guidance intact but cautioned that adjusted EBIT in the back half is likely to trail first‑half results, driven by a mid‑single‑digit sequential drop in North American wholesale volumes, translating to roughly an 8% year‑over‑year decline in the second half of 2025.
Merendi also points out that, unlike earlier messaging, the third quarter will carry a heavier gross tariff burden than the second quarter, though mitigating actions should soften the impact, and that stronger free cash flow in the second half could pave the way for share buybacks.
Looking toward year‑end, the analyst sees a tougher fourth quarter, with North America deliveries down about 9% and margin pressure, while noting that favorable mix shifts and further improvements in China should help offset some of those headwinds.
The analyst notes that while higher capital expenditures aren&#8217;t ideal, General Motors&#8217; peers face the same challenge, making the relative impact more manageable.
General Motors still expects to generate $7.5 billion to $10 billion of adjusted free cash flow in 2025, providing flexibility for both shareholder returns and reinvestment in the business.
Price Action: GM shares are trading higher by 8.79% to $53.19&nbsp;at last check Wednesday.

Tariffs Cloud General Motors' Outlook As Annual Profits Remain At Risk

General Motors Company (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GM#NYSE">GM</a>) reported better-than-expected <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/GM/earnings">quarterly earnings on Tuesday</a>.
The auto behemoth registered second-quarter adjusted earnings per share of $2.53, beating the analyst consensus estimate of $2.40. Quarterly sales of $47.12 billion outpaced the Street view of $45.57 billion.
"In the United States, we continue to lead the industry in full-size trucks and SUVs, and the 10 all-new or redesigned crossover SUVs we have introduced like the Chevrolet Trax, Buick Envista, and GMC Acadia took huge leaps forward in design and technology, resulting in record demand and revenue growth, while reduced complexity contributed to stronger profitability," said CEO Mary Barra in the company's letter to shareholders.
General Motors affirms FY25 adjusted earnings per share guidance of $8.25-$10.00 versus $9.17 analyst estimate. General Motors is keeping its full‑year 2025 guidance unchanged while planning to offset at least 30% of the $4 billion–$5 billion gross tariff impact.
General Motors shares gained 6.9% to trade at $52.26 on Wednesday.

GM shares are trading higher, rebounding after falling Tuesday on Q2 financial results.

Even with shares down 12% this year, Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) still carries an <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/report/TSLA">out-of-this-world price-to-earnings ratio</a> of 189x. That's not just lofty—it's meme-level.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Tesla's Valuation Is Still From Another Planet</h2>
For context, Microsoft Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSFT#NASDAQ">MSFT</a>) and Amazon.com Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZN#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>) sit around 39x and 37x (per <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pro/register?utm_adType=bzprocontent&amp;utm_campaign=14daytrial&amp;utm_ad=0723">Benzinga Pro</a> data), while Toyota Motor Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TM#NYSE">TM</a>) and General Motors Co (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GM#NYSE">GM</a>) trade at just 7 times earnings. Somehow, Tesla is still priced like it&#8217;s leading a future that hasn't quite arrived.
That future was easier to believe in back in 2020, when Tesla shares soared nearly 700% and the company truly dominated the EV narrative. But the landscape has shifted &#8211; and fast.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Competition Isn't Creeping—It's Sprinting</h2>
On Tuesday, GM reported that its electric vehicle sales surged 111% year-over-year in the second quarter. Sure, it's off a smaller base, but the trajectory is undeniable. 
Meanwhile, Tesla's own second-quarter vehicle sales fell 14%. In a market that once gave Tesla credit for being the only EV in town, that's a glaring reversal.
GM isn't the only challenger. Chinese automakers are rapidly scaling up production and expanding their global reach, offering more affordable alternatives with comparable technology. Tesla no longer feels like a monopoly. It feels like a frontrunner being caught from all sides.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Can Hype Still Outrun The Numbers?</h2>
Elon Musk is still Elon Musk—and few CEOs can spin a narrative quite like him. He's teased robotaxis, humanoid robots, and full autonomy as Tesla's next growth engine. But with <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/TSLA/earnings">each sales miss</a>, the pressure mounts to deliver something—anything—that justifies the valuation.
Tesla's earnings call on Wednesday may offer another round of ambitious promises. But this time, with competitors closing in and fundamentals weakening, even the meme premium may need a reality check.
For now, Tesla is still trading like it's 2020. The rest of the EV world, however, is firmly in 2025.
TSLA Price Action: Tesla shares were up 0.31% at $333.13 on Wednesday, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pro/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">according to Benzinga Pro.</a>

Tesla Is Still Selling Glossy Future - GM Just Shipped 111% More EVs

Wells Fargo analyst Colin Langan maintains General Motors (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GM#NYSE">GM</a>) with a Underweight and raises the price target from $34 to $38.

Wells Fargo Maintains Underweight on General Motors, Raises Price Target to $38

Toyota Motor Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TM#NYSE">TM</a>) just got a market-moving gift &#8211; and it came courtesy of U.S. trade policy. After the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/donald-trump">Donald Trump administration</a> unveiled a new 15% tariff on imported vehicles, Toyota's stock surged 8%. 
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Tariff Math That Favors The Competition</h2>
Why? Because while Toyota gets away with a flat 15% hike, American automakers like Ford Motor Co (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/F#NYSE">F</a>), General Motors Co (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GM#NYSE">GM</a>), and Tesla Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) are staring down a tangled—and far more expensive—tariff mess.
Ford and GM aren't just dealing with the vehicle import tariff, pointed out Spencer Hakimian <a href="https://x.com/SpencerHakimian/status/1947821113792201034">on</a> X. They're also absorbing 50% more for steel and copper, 25% tariffs on parts from Canadian and Mexican factories, and a 55% hit on components sourced from China. 
Tesla, with its global supply web, doesn't escape the squeeze either.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">An ‘America First' Policy That Backfired?</h2>
What was meant to be a policy to bring auto jobs back to U.S. soil may end up doing the opposite &#8211; by raising input costs for American carmakers while giving Toyota a relatively cleaner ride. 
Ironically, Toyota's more consolidated and diversified supply chain, with more U.S.-based manufacturing than some of its American rivals, positions it to weather the new rules better.
The optics are stark: a Japanese automaker rallying on a trade policy designed to promote American industry, while Detroit's giants get slapped with compounding costs.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Wall Street Is Already Picking Sides</h2>
The market's response was swift. Toyota popped. Ford and GM barely budged. Tesla continues to navigate a different narrative altogether, but even it can't dodge the rising cost of essential materials.
For investors, the takeaway is clear: in the short term, tariff policy isn&#8217;t just a political tool &#8211; it&#8217;s a stock catalyst. And right now, Toyota&#8217;s the one shifting into high gear.

As President Donald Trump announced 15% tariffs on Japanese imports after reaching an agreement with Japanese officials, shares of some of Europe's top automakers rallied, hoping for similar breakthroughs.
What Happened: Shares of German automakers Bayerische Motoren Werke AG (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BAMXF#OTC">BAMXF</a>), Volkswagen AG (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/VWAGY#OTC">VWAGY</a>) and Mercedes-Benz Group AG (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MBGYY#OTC">MBGYY</a>) were all up 5% following the news.
Meanwhile, Stellantis NV's (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/STLA#NYSE">STLA</a>) shares soared 7.1% in the European market as well. The Stoxx Europe autos index also rose 4.2% following the news, the report suggests.
However, Rella Suskin, Equity Analyst at Morningstar, according to a CNBC <a href="https://www.cnbc.com/2025/07/23/autos-us-japan-trade-deal-raises-hopes-of-an-eu-tariff-breakthrough.html">report</a>, said it&#8217;s "impossible to predict" whether a similar breakthrough could be reached with other regions like the EU, but it could prove to be difficult as the "figures do not come close to Japan's commitment," Suskin said. 
"EU negotiators have also proposed removing their 10% duties on US car exports if the U.S. reduces its duties on the sector to below 20%," Suskin said.
Why It Matters: The news comes as Trump said <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/economic-data/25/07/46562556/trump-says-550-billion-trade-deal-with-japan-reached-that-will-create-thousands-of-jobs-there-has-never-been-anything-like-it">the deal with Japan</a>, worth $550 billion, "will create Hundreds of Thousands of Jobs," with 90% of the profits going to the U.S.
Trump's trade deal with the country has <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/market-summary/25/07/46563227/trump-trade-deal-with-japan-sends-toyota-mazda-stock-soaring-nikkei-rises-sharply">sent the stocks</a> of companies like Toyota Motor Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TM#NYSE">TM</a>), Mazda Motor Corp. (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MZDAY#OTC">MZDAY</a>), etc. soaring, with the Nikkei and Topix indices up 3.10% and 2.71% respectively.
Elsewhere, General Motors Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GM#NYSE">GM</a>) announced its <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/07/46564633/gm-says-chevy-is-now-the-no-2-ev-brand-in-us-4-billion-factory-push-to-offset-trump-tariffs">quarterly earnings report</a> for the second quarter of 2025 and said it would be offsetting at least 30-40% of the additional costs due to Trump's tariffs.

S&P 500 Notches Another Record Close Following Earnings Reports; Investor Sentiment Edges Higher, Fear & Greed Index Remains In 'Greed' Zone

General Motors Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GM#NYSE">GM</a>) has said that Chevrolet is the second-largest electric vehicle brand in the U.S., with Cadillac coming in at the fifth spot despite leading luxury EV sales.
Check out the current price of <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/GM">GM Stock here</a>.
What Happened: "Chevrolet is now the number two EV brand thanks to the success of the Blazer EV and the Equinox EV," GM CEO Mary Barra said at the earnings call on Tuesday.
The CEO also shared that Cadillac had attained the number one spot in luxury EV brands with a conquest rate of 75% for the Lyric and 80% for the Optic EVs. GM also recorded over $4 billion in revenue through software products like OnStar and Super Cruise.
GM also says that the $4 billion investment into U.S. plants will add over 300,000 units of "U.S. capacity for high-margin light-duty pickups, full-size SUVs, and crossovers to help us greatly reduce our tariff exposure, satisfy unmet customer demand, and capture upside opportunities as we launch new models."
Regarding the tariff impacts, GM states that the company expects to offset over 30%-40% of the $4-$5 billion total additional costs resulting from President Donald Trump's 25% auto tariffs.
When asked about GM's profitability versus Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>), Barra said that she doesn't usually "comment on competitors," but added that GM EVs specifically are doing well because of the customer's perspective on the brand.&nbsp;
She maintained that GM EVs are "beautifully designed vehicles that have the range and the performance that customers are looking for, whether you&#8217;re talking about a truck or all the technology and safety."
Why It Matters: GM released its second quarter earnings report on Tuesday, which showcased that <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-stock-ratings/analyst-color/25/07/46549018/general-motors-delivers-q2-beat-braces-for-higher-tariff-pressures-ahead">the company beat</a> Wall Street expectations with $47.12 billion in revenue, but still down 2% YoY.
The automaker also recently <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/large-cap/25/07/46475391/tesla-cybertruck-bet-not-paying-off-ford-gm-outsell-ev-giant">outsold the Tesla Cybertruck</a> in the U.S., with the GMC Hummer EV selling over 4,508 units in the U.S. The company's Silverado EV also sold over 3,056 units.
However, with Trump's Big Beautiful Bill officially axing incentives on EVs, the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/tech/25/07/46270052/as-trumps-big-beautiful-bill-is-signed-into-law-these-evs-from-tesla-gm-and-ford-will-become-more-expensive">company expects prices</a> of the Blazer EV, as well as Cadillac models like the Lyriq, among other GM EVs, to go up.

GM Says Chevy Is Now The No. 2 EV Brand In US —$4 Billion Factory Push To Offset Trump Tariffs

It was a quiet Tuesday on Wall Street, as major indexes edged lower with investors pausing ahead of a critical <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/magnificent-seven">wave of tech earnings.</a>
By midday trading in New York, the S&amp;P 500 dipped 0.1% and the Nasdaq 100 slipped 0.5%, pulling back after hitting fresh all-time highs on Monday. The Russell 2000 outperformed, rising 0.6%.
Weak corporate results weighed on sentiment. Philip Morris International Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PM#NYSE">PM</a>) plunged 9.5% after missing revenue forecasts. Lockheed Martin Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LMT#NYSE">LMT</a>) dropped more than 8% on a double miss, and General Motors Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GM#NYSE">GM</a>) lost 5.5% after warning of a steeper-than-expected tariff hit in the second half of 2025.
Health care led sector gains, while tech stocks lagged, as attention turns to earnings from Alphabet Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOGL#NASDAQ">GOOGL</a>), and Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) which are slated to report earnings on Wednesday. 
On the macro front, Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said the U.S. will meet with Chinese officials next week to continue trade negotiations. That raised hopes for an extension to the August 12 China tariff deadline.
In the bond market, the 10-year Treasury yield fell for a fifth straight session to 4.33%, its lowest level in over a week. Meanwhile, the U.S. dollar index dropped 0.4%, extending its slide for a third day.
Gold climbed 0.9% to $3,420 per ounce, the highest since June 16, as uncertainty surrounding the Federal Reserve's independence and Chair Jerome Powell's future fueled safe-haven demand.
In crypto, Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) rose 1.4% to $119,000, extending its rebound alongside broader market hedging flows.

Lockheed, General Motors Tumble, Gold Hits 1-Month Highs: What's Moving Markets Tuesday?

Shares of General Motors Co (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GM#NYSE">GM</a>) tanked in early trading on Wednesday, despite the company <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/earnings/25/07/46542820/general-motors-faces-tariffs-heat-margins-shrink">surpassing revenue and earnings estimates</a>.
The General Motors Analyst: Wedbush <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-stock-ratings/analyst/5e00ad4e3513fb0001f03cfd/daniel-ives">analyst Daniel Ives</a> maintained an Outperform rating and price target of $55.
The General Motors Thesis: The company reported revenues of $47.12 billion, down 2% year-on-year, but significantly higher than Street expectations of $45.84 billion, driven by "strong demand for its vehicles and stable vehicle pricing," Ives said in the note.
Check out <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-stock-ratings">other analyst stock ratings</a>.
General Motors announced earnings of $2.53 per share, topping consensus of $2.34 per share, despite "a $1.1 billion tariff impact," he added.
Although the tariff impact is expected to be higher in the back half of the year than it was in the first half, the company continues making "solid progress" with mitigating at least 30% of these costs "through manufacturing adjustments, targeted cost initiatives, and consistent pricing," the analyst stated.
Management reiterated its full-year top- and bottom-line guidance, as General Motors gears up to "ramp the deliveries of its new models while stabilizing the bottom-line through continued improvements in its business model to offset the tariff impact," he further wrote.
GM Price Action: Shares of General Motors had declined by 7.33% to $49.31 at the time of publication on Tuesday.
