General Motors (NYSE: GM) this morning cancelled its long scheduled Q1 earnings call for media, shareholders and analysts, as Trump Tariff Chaos prevailed in Michigan, a state experiencing growing inflation and unemployment from the Trump mis-administration. General Motors earned $2.78 billion, which tallies to $3.35 per share for the three months ending March 31. During Q1 of 2024, GM earned $2.98 billion or $2.56 per share.
“Based on recent reports regarding updates to trade policy, GM Chair and CEO Mary Barra and GM Chief Financial Officer Paul Jacobson will now host a conference call for the investment community at 8:30 a.m. ET Thursday, May 1 instead of Tuesday, April 29 to discuss these results and GM’s updated 2025 full-year guidance. The company’s initial full year 2025 financial guidance does not contemplate the potential impact of tariffs” GM said.
