I believe you are reading the chart incorrectly. Revenue has increased by 4.7%, while net income (margin) has decreased by 40%.
That’s my mistake. Had the two movements reversed. Now fixed. Thank you for the heads up.
The Media just post the reality they WANT.
If not called out for it they will just leave the misinformation up.
at least GMA did the right thing. Most other sites would just delete Nick’s post.
Cheers GMA!!!
In summary, 98% of the metrics are negative as compared to 2021.
You Guys Read The Charts While I Deal With The Reality Of Vehicle Purchasing…Slimmest Of GM Incentives…Dealership With No Supplier Discounts Or Incentives…Orders Never Fulfilled…Price Increases Every Other Month…You Cannot Order This…You Cannot That….Interest Rates Rising.
On the Mary mess:
One of many! 🙁
At one time if a CEO presented numbers like that there would be calls for her removal.
in 2022 there are calls the the Government to help out. I need a new screen name… this one is not aging well…
