Guidance lifted overall, and I reckon they're going to get earnings growth of 8% to 9% this year, which is pretty good.

The Mike Hosking Breakfast
Full Show Podcast: 29 April 2026

So markets like that, shares up around about 6%.

The Mike Hosking Breakfast
Full Show Podcast: 29 April 2026

Full Show Podcast: 29 April 2026

And then in the middle, you've got General Motors.

The Mike Hosking Breakfast
Full Show Podcast: 29 April 2026

That's actually a big earnings week, but revenues are down 1%, earnings up 22%, $4.25 billion.

Full Show Podcast: 29 April 2026

Tariffs, so the Supreme Court ruled back in February that certain ones were illegal, so they're getting a $500 million refund there, which is not... They raised guidance, lifted the full-year outlook.

Full Show Podcast: 29 April 2026

They said North America is actually doing quite well, but taking a bit of a hit from their EV business, which they're unwinding from, that's around about $1 billion as well.

The Mike Hosking Breakfast
Full Show Podcast: 29 April 2026

And they've still got some high commodity and tariff-related pressures, so that'll hit things by around about $2 billion.

The Mike Hosking Breakfast
Full Show Podcast: 29 April 2026

So investors cautious, shares flat, all that mix, Mike.
