Open-market buys and sells only — the deliberate trades. Zero here doesn’t mean no filings: grants, option exercises and tax withholding (below) are compensation, not market trades.

Fiscal period ending 2025-12-31 versus 2024-12-31 — view filing on EDGAR →
GM's risk profile deteriorated materially across five or more distinct themes, driven by $7.9B in EV-related charges, a new $5B+ capital reallocation in response to tariff exposure, and a cascade of new regulatory, supply chain, cybersecurity, and liquidity disclosures. Tariff and trade-policy risk is now explicitly linked to potential asset impairments, restructuring, and production disruptions, while supply chain concentration in EV battery materials and semiconductor inputs adds operational fragility. A handful of easing items — reduced AV exposure, a smaller impairment charge, and CAFE penalty elimination — are insufficient to offset the breadth and severity of new worsening disclosures.
