Some institutional investors establish a significant position in stocks such as GM in order to find ways to drive up its value. Retail investors, on the other hand, need to know that institutional holders can own millions of shares of GM, and when they decide to sell, the stock will often sell-off, which may instantly impact shareholders' value. So, traders who get in early or near the beginning of the institutional investor's buying cycle could potentially generate profits.

GM Insider Trades History

Less than 1% of General Motors are currently held by insiders. Unlike GM's institutional investors, corporate insiders most likely have a limit on the maximum percentage of share ownership. This is done to align insiders' influence against GM's private investors even though both sides will benefit from rising prices or experience loss when the share price declines. The good rule to have in mind is that the maximum share ownership percentage of the corporate insiders should not surpass 25%. View all of GM's insider trades

The market value of General Motors is measured differently than its book value, which is the value of GM that is recorded on the company's balance sheet. Investors also form their own opinion of GM's value that differs from its market value or its book value, called intrinsic value, which is GM's true underlying value. Investors use various methods to calculate intrinsic value and buy a stock when its market value falls below its intrinsic value. Because GM's market value can be influenced by many factors that don't directly affect GM's underlying business (such as a pandemic or basic market pessimism), market value can vary widely from intrinsic value.
Please note, there is a significant difference between GM's value and its price as these two are different measures arrived at by different means. Investors typically determine if GM is a good investment by looking at such factors as earnings, sales, fundamental and technical indicators, competition as well as analyst projections. However, GM's price is the amount at which it trades on the open market and represents the number that a seller and buyer find agreeable to each party.
