Its weakest area is its growth (revenue +7.8%/yr). Whether it's cheap or expensive depends on the current price, which you can compute in the tool.
General Motors is the largest U.S. automaker: Chevrolet and GMC trucks and SUVs as the cash machine, Cadillac as luxury, and a more pragmatic EV transition than Ford's. It buys back stock with an aggressiveness rare in the sector.
