GM's future looking better, will start paying back loans earlier

More here: http://www.bloomberg.com/apps/news?p...2XrN_eJ0&pos=2

Nov. 16 (Bloomberg) -- General Motors Co., signaling confidence in its recovery from bankruptcy, said it generated $3.3 billion in cash in the third quarter and plans to start repaying government loans early.

Cash on hand was $42.6 billion at the end of September after a restructuring engineered by the Obama administration, and GM reported progress in cutting jobs and shutting dealers. The loss since leaving Chapter 11 on July 10 was $1.15 billion, GM said today.

They could just pay-off the remainder of my loan and I'd be happy and forever loyal to GM.

I'll have to wait and see what kind of deals are out there. I still don't see many HHRs out there with any "good" prices. It seems to me that the prices were jacked up, then dropped back to just being over priced.

They are taking the money that they got from N America to pay off the German gov't because the germans want theirs back due to the failed Opel deal. The unions in Germany are plenty PO'd with GM too.

GM is only in Munchkinland and they have to still travel the yellow brick road to the Emerald City.

Oh were off to pay the Bama! You know the guy behind the curtain with a lot of smoke and noise.

To be honest while I do not like the man GM has been pretty much permited to do as they please so far. The EU in Europe and Germany have been much worse.

I just hope this does not change.
