| May 17, 2013 | | 10:17 EDT |  | GM | GM jumps above IPO level after CLSA boosts rating
Shares of GM (GM) are advancing after CLSA analyst Emmanuel Rosner upgraded the stock to Buy from Underperform in a note to investors earlier today. WHAT'S NEW: GM should benefit from improved profitability in North America in the second half of 2013 and 2014, reduced losses in Europe, and stabilized profit margins in China, Rosner wrote. In North America, the automaker's profitability should be boosted by higher prices in the second half of this year, and by the full rollout of its K2XX trucks in 2014, the analyst believes. GM's first quarter results in Europe indicated that it is "making encouraging progress in reducing losses" there, the analyst wrote. As a result, he has increased confidence that GM Europe's loss will drop to about $1B this year from $1.9B last year. In China, GM's emphasis on the Cadillac should enable the company to keep its margins, which had been in a downward trend, from falling this year, the analyst contended. Rosner has a $48 price target on GM's stock. TODAY'S PRICE ACTION: In early trading, GM rose 60c, or 1.9%, to $33. WHAT'S NOTABLE: GM's IPO price was $33, and the stock has reached that level again today. | | | 10:07 EDT |  | GM | On The Fly: Analyst Upgrade Summary
