General
Motors has reduced its stake in Suzuki Motor Corporation from 20.4-percent to just 3.0-percent, all but severing
25-year-old ties with the Japanese automaker.
The cash freed up by selling 92.36 million shares (about 17.4-percent of Suzuki’s outstanding stock) should
give the General pre-tax profits on the order of $650 million, critical cash for the company’s capital-intensive
turnaround efforts.
