General Motors shares are down 11% since the strike began September 15, a far steeper decline than Ford\u2019s 6% dip and Chrysler parent Stellantis\u2019 2% drop (the S&amp;P is down 4% during the stretch). The recent slide has sent General Motors\u2019 market capitalization from $47 billion to $42 billion. General Motors shares are now down more than 50% from their January 2022 peak.<\/p>\n<p><fbs-ad position=\"inread\" progressive=\"\" ad-id=\"article-0-inread\" aria-hidden=\"true\" role=\"presentation\"><\/fbs-ad><\/p>\n<h2 class=\"subhead-embed color-accent bg-base font-accent font-size text-align\">Big Number<\/h2>\n<p>16%.<strong> <\/strong>That\u2019s the total return on an investment in General Motors, including dividend payouts, since its post-bankruptcy 2010 initial public offering, according to FactSet data, equating to an annual return of just over 1%.
