Since the Initial Public Offering (IPO) of the new GM in November 2010, the automaker has been doing its best to increase its share price. The firm has left unprofitable markets, divested of loss-making divisions, made adjustments to its business model in order to prioritize profit over market share, and also invested heavily into new-age mobility ventures such as electric and autonomous vehicles. However, GM stock continues to float around its yearly low, despite an occasional rally.
