A notable loss for the NYSE
GM first listed on the NYSE in 1911 and relisted there in 2010 after its government-backed bankruptcy, CNBC reported. It follows Walmart, DoorDash and Palantir Technologies in moving to Nasdaq in recent years, and Hilton Worldwide Holdings announced a similar plan the prior week, according to CNBC. GM's stock closed at $76.31 on Oct. 26, 2026, giving it a market value of roughly $64.4 billion, CNBC said. The announcement came a week after a GM technology event on its AI and self-driving roadmap.
