Valuing the New GM
Tuesday, June 02, 2009In December, Darren Gersh asked Anant Sundaram of the Tuck School of Business at Dartmouth University to check the numbers in the restructuring plan General Motors submitted to Congress and also to value the automaker. Today, Darren revisited Professor Sundaram and asked him to value the GM that just filed chapter 11 bankruptcy -- the "new" GM. You can watch the report that aired in tonight's broadcast here, and you can also review Sundaram's calculations. (You need Flash installed to watch the video.)
