General Motors (GM) has raised its 2026 earnings forecasts following a strong first quarter, reporting adjusted earnings of $3.70 per share that exceeded expectations. Despite a slight revenue decline, the automaker has lifted its full-year EPS guidance, but faces headwinds from revised net income forecasts and significant charges related to a shift in electric vehicle strategy. Furthermore, ongoing geopolitical tensions in the Strait of Hormuz threaten to impact GM’s earnings alongside competitors in the automotive and energy sectors.
“The Iran conflict and Strait of Hormuz blockade will impact earnings at ExxonMobil, Chevron, and General Motors.”
