Rumor has it: GM Files for Bankruptcy

Rumor just in from a highly placed GM insider is that GM just filed for BK on 90% of the corporation. Awaiting confirmation.

Probably best. If true it might give them a fighting chance. Time to reorganize, drop the dead weight, and rework union contracts.

Hmmm...interesting to hear if this ends up being true!

(Not that I doubt you...we all knew this would happen eventually....)

waiting for confirmation on this. It'll probably happen sooner or later, but I was expecting it to happen closer to the government's deadline.

Hmmm...I was getting ready to make the trade out of the GTI into an HHR SS...perhaps I'll wait a bit longer.

I'm starting to doubt the veracity of this report...for now. Big news is usually announced within an hour of the market closing as we're a bit beyond that now.
