Best Heal Care Stocks To Watch Right Now

Is GM still "Government Motors"?

The simple answer is "yes". The U.S. government still owns some GM stock. But it won't for much longer.

General Motors (NYSE: GM  ) picked up its "Government Motors" nickname after it emerged from bankruptcy in 2009, a bankruptcy assisted by $49.5 billion in government loans. At that time, the U.S. government held over 60% of GM's common stock, and GM still owed taxpayers billions.

Many thought the bailout was necessary. Even Ford (NYSE: F  ) lobbied for it. But resentment over the politics of the bailout, and to some extent over the way GM had been run into the ground by its prior management, helped the name stick.

But here's something that you might not know: The government's GM stock will all be sold before long, and GM repaid the last of the cash it owed three years ago.

Advisors' Opinion:

• [By Richard Young]

  Diageo has had great success in Africa and is replicating that success in South America. In Brazil, nine out of 10 shots of Scotch served are Diageo’s brands. Fifty percent of Scotch served in Venezuela is Diageo’s. The potential in South America is attractive. Between 10 million and 15 million people are entering the middle class in Latin America every year. My relative strength chart for Diageo has reached a five-year high.

  Shortly after Diageo‘s (NYSE:DEO) success in Africa, the company announced the acquisition of Meta Abo Brewery in Ethiopia. Meta Abo is the second-largest brewery in Ethiopia. Its purchase will give Diageo access to the country and a lead-in for its premium spirits brands.
