GM
General Motors Company
stock NYSE

In a wild circumstance, I originally joined the Navy to be a GM, but when I went to MEPS, turns out I am color blind and deficient as fuck for depth perception. I'm a good old Texas boy who don't know shit but shooting.
But it worked out almost two decades later but also kinda jelly of your brother.

Wrote an article detailing why I think Vital Farms is an undervalued stock right now. It's my first article, and would love to get feedback and your overall thoughts on the stock. Thesis as to why I think the stock is a buy, and a quick summary to what you'll find in the link below:

**Summary:**
* Sentiment surrounding Vital Farms is negative, pressured by near term headwinds that do not affect the long term outlook of the company.
* Unit economics continue to improve on an expanding TAM. Revenue CAGR of 28% since 2020, GM expansion and EBIT margin improvement showcase business resilience.
* Low multiples the stock trades at, when compared to other high loyalty, quality consumer goods companies show possible upside.
* I believe the stock price weakness Mr. Market presents, opens up a buying opportunity.

Wrote up my first stock thesis on VITL, curious what holes the community can poke in it. Starting my learning journey. Feedback appreciated!! Below a brief summary of what you can find in the extended article.

**HITI currently has over 2.5 million members across Canada, with a long-term goal revised upwards to 4 million from 2.5 million, which has already been exceeded.**
https://preview.redd.it/bk0pq078p5xg1.png?width=1080&format=png&auto=webp&s=6f3f7f2683ab34ef21f5cee50d1918d37dc5a5c2
Market share reached an all-time high, confirming the superiority of HITI’s $Cost model, which makes it unique compared to its peers.
**Raj’s goal is to convert at least 40% of those members into Elite members!**
If we assume 4 million subscribers, from the current 2.5 million, **we’ll have 1.6 million Elite members with a 40% conversion**.
Recurring revenue from paid members alone would exceed $64 million, at a cost of $40 per year, but I expect the price to increase in the coming years as competition decreases and HITI gains pricing power, while also increasing GMS.
**Elite/white label inventory will increase from the current 2% to 25-30%**, effectively altering the future GMS resulting from this change (3-4 years).
When Hiti raises the price of Elite and White Label memberships, GM will increase significantly. **At the current valuation with 70 million in high-margin recurring revenue by 2030 (Only from ELITE)**...if you have a 10-year horizon, it is not financial advice, but buying $HITI shares can turn out to be the best decision imo
Furthermore, an Elite customer, just like an Amazon Prime customer, will make repeat purchases and contribute to greater revenue for the company.
**Don’t measure a company built over decades with a quarterly time horizon.**

**Canna Cabana remains the preferred destination for consumers as data shows:**
* Daily users move the market and are about 2x more likely to shop most often at Canna Cabana than our closest peer
* Canna Cabana same-store sales have increased 151% between October 2021 and October 2025 as consumers have come to appreciate the offering of our discount club model
* The average Canna Cabana store nationally was on a $2.6MM annual revenue run rate in October 2025 vs. $1.2MM for peers in the five provinces in which we operate.

High Tide is the company with the most data available in its sector of any other. This allows it to anticipate consumer trends and develop white-label products in line with current trends.
An overlooked aspect is that the company managed the crisis in BC when the strike broke out last September, causing a 55% drop in sales in the province, due to the strikes in provincial shops.
HITI took advantage of this opportunity to increase its market share in BC; with only eight stores, it is now the most well-known chain in the province!
A hallmark of efficiency in logistics and management
In the past, the company built 20 to 30 stores each year.
Now, the situation is changing. A member here made the comparison citing Nike’s early days in the 90’s when it couldn’t meet short-term demand because it didn’t have enough capital to buy more inventory, which is very good news. It means demand for canna cabana products is skyrocketing, while competitors are going out of business.
As sales and scale increase, demand increases and so does capital expenditure in the short term.
Currently, Hiti is prioritizing market share, building loyalty among its members, and patiently waiting for most of its competitors to exit the market (currently over 3,600 dispensaries in Canada).

**Long term target, in my opinion, is 500+ stores in Canada which Raj does not want to state his number, because he prefers to raise the target once it has been reached**
**BIG NEWS :**
BC will double its store limit, perhaps to 32 next year, after what happened with the strikes.
HITI will have 32 stores in BC in the long term. Imagine the unpriced revenue from that province! (In reality, nothing is priced by the market at this price.)
Canna Cabana is showing the provinces that where its stores are located, the illicit market is significantly declining, and the data shows it.
It’s possible , This is just my opinion, that in the future (in a few years), Ontario will further raise the limit to 200 stores, and provinces with government-run stores will allow HITI to open (ex. Quebec).
Raj has a clear vision that the cannabis market could exceed 7 bln in Canada in 2-3 years from today
https://preview.redd.it/7tn9qo7hp5xg1.png?width=1080&format=png&auto=webp&s=6d31b354b88ee67dff4ff6e2d34116e6dcf85172
Remexian will make a significant contribution to the business model in the future.
Hiti’s leverage and scale have allowed the company to purchase tons of medical cannabis at a 40% discount compared to Remexian.
This will have a significant impact on Q3 financial figures.
The company is evaluating projected sales in the UK, a rapidly growing market, expected in H2. Remexian will play a role at the European level.
As Raj has said in the past: “Germany will only be a gateway to Europe. Remexian will be recognized globally within 10 years and will also ship to Australia.

currrent estimates for the European medical market, which I think very few people are really aware of, are around a 60 billion € market by 2030, much larger than the current American one.
# France’s Potential Cannabis Market Is Valued At $8.3 Billion
[https://thetalmangroup.com/frances-potential-cannabis-market-is-valued-at-8-3-billion/](https://thetalmangroup.com/frances-potential-cannabis-market-is-valued-at-8-3-billion/)
France is implementing measures to implement cannabis in the national health system
**In summary:**
• Most data rich cannabis company in Canada, and potentially out of Canada. This will lead to white lable products tailored directly to consumer’s wants. Overtime increasing profit margins.
• market share continues to grow , Raj is in talks with large chains: blocks of 40+ stores
• Same store sales up 151% in last 4 years vs -14% for average operator. This demonstrates a clear competitive edge and executional acumen by High Tide. “Stay tuned, this year will have some M&A”
• Convert 40-50% of current loyalty members to Elite, **leading to over 1M members**. Elite paid membership creates a more loyal and sticky client, while generating thick margins through membership subscriptions
• Remexian “...its going to be a massive contributor to our financial profile”
2 Tons purchased and landing in March, at about 50% less than what Remexian was paying. Multiple deals coming \*inbound\*. **Remexian will do 4-5 tons per month in the near future.**
• Significant \*inbound\* interest from large American operators for licensing or other deals. “Things are looking brighter and brighter”
High Tide is running on all cylinders. Its hard to diversify when the company keeps delivering like this

Yeah buying a basket full of moat-less SaaS company going through repricing of changing GM must be a good idea!
lol this regard mentions servicenow and doesn’t even own it in his port. Oh and the legendary buying “SaaS” when leaving out the most important MSFT.

i am very long term in this company
Thanks for reading, share if you like it

The only OEMs that you listed are GM, Mercedes, and Honda. Mercedes discontinued their level 3 PILOT system, Honda has discontinued electric cars altogether, and I have a very hard time believing GM doesn’t require you to be on the highway, in specific areas, at a specific speed, etc. none of those options allow me to get in my car in my driveway and have it drive me to the grocery store and back.

Waymo (Alphabet), Cruise (GM), Zoox (Amazon), and Apollo Go (Baidu) are all operating robotaxi services at FSD level 4 (fully unattended within a defined area).
Mercedes Benz and Honda have FSD level 3 (attended with eyes off the road in limited situations).
Tesla is at FSD level 2 (attended with eyes on the road), along with a bunch of other companies. Their trials of driverless taxis in Texas are allowed only because Texas doesn't care about FSD levels or safety.

The only people who buy GM are the poors who couldn't afford anything better.

Yo son.. I’m gonna tell em solar is for pussies and GM cars are gay AF while F150s are yuge. Position yourself accordingly

GM trucks are great. And they sell a shit load of them.

who tf wants a GM car unless its your only option basically

GM E bros

They have offtake agreements in place (GM and Panasonic), and with BYD wanting to set up dealerships in Canada, a local supply of battery grade graphite.
China has a strong grip on the graphite market but countries still need regional supply to make the end product.
Something to consider if you’re looking long.

Not sure where I'm crying and blaming. If you cannot support this debate with facts then punch out.
lil bro....let's dig in on the auto bailout. GM for instance. $50 billion of taxpayer money was spent to prop up a dying company, we lost 11.2 billion that was not repaid. Who won? Does GM produce better or cheaper cars? No? Who won? UAW chiefs, lobbyists, and large, rich shareholders who would have been hurt if the shares went to zero.
Ford took no gov money.
"Yes, but saved jobs!". No. Demand for cars does not change depending on players on the board; purchases and jobs would have flowed to other manufacturers in sghort time
Still waiting to hear where in the US Constitution bailouts are enshrined.
No bailouts....ever.

They are in every truck and suv that the op's article is about??? Which are delayed...and they did sell quite a bit of celistiqs, sierra EVs, Silverado EVs, caddiliq iq, and hummer EVs not sure of the numbers but my guess is more than 10k for all those...
which I believe are on the same platform..sierra EVs alone I think hit 8000?
The lower end EVs GM is selling are NOT delayed...
I got my brand new "halo" EV for about 60k out the door..
GM still thought it was in the covid times and could sell them for 80k for the base 😂....
Are there even any 800v EVs from any manufacturer that can hit over 450 mile range for under 40k? 

EVs dropped in sales after the cancellation of the federal rebate but they are still selling in huge numbers in the coastal states. They are mostly Teslas right now because we are in a lull waiting for next level EVs to release in the USA. I’m aware of the 800v system in the $100k halo GM cars but they are simply not part of the market as they don’t even sell 10,000 per year. The cars that count are those that compete with traditional gas cars and in the USA the average car is $50,000. That’s the playing field, plus or minus, where the successful EVs need to be to grow the EV market. The USA is vastly behind every other large car market but we also got hit with a terrible anti-EV administration that will be gone soon.

For responding to a gm post, you know very little about GMs offerings...
Tesla is actually behind GMs 800v ultium platform that launched with their hummer EV, 
max charge rate for gm is 350+ kw...I've seen 367 kw on mine...and able to maintain it much much longer than even tesla.
Silverado EV EPA hitting 450miles is definitely not behind teslas cybertruck..and that came out in 2024....I think the revised numbers are even higher. 484miles now? Maybe? I forget
And if you are referring to heat pumps for HVAC...yes GM does use heat pumps, not sure about ford...
GM also uses gigacasting for the optiq I believe? Could be wrong it was one of the new Cadillacs that use it.
And all these things that you think bmw is doing...gm has already been doing since the launch of the hummer ev...
But yea software they are very far behind tesla...but much farther than ford..because Ford dropped their competing FNV4 platform last year...
Again it doesn't matter if china subsidizes their auto companies..if they pull out ahead its a win...
And on the same line Tesla wouldn't even be around if it wasn't for the help from the us government...but it doesn't really matter in the end when nobody is buying EVs in USA anyways... compared to non pure bev

China is still subsidizing the Chinese cars massively. Far more than the USA ever subsidized any American car companies. It’s working, as they are selling cars all over the world for less than it costs to build them, but that should eventually crash their economy. Nobody has exact figures for any of this so who knows when this will happen.
Yes GM designed their EVs mostly from the ground up. Not as much as Tesla did though. They have far worse range, charge slower usually, have crappy software, poor performance compared to a Tesla, and a long hood full of poorly designed HVAC equipment mostly, that leaves zero room for a frunk. That’s not a path for success. Ford, while they not be as fully vertically stacked as Tesla and Rivian, is still starting over now, in 2026. They will have the advantage of benchmarking the best cars today and meeting them with state of the art features that the newest EVs are coming with- things like gigacasting large single piece parts for their chassis, better battery tech, (maybe 800v architecture?) more efficient factories (with barely any human staff unfortunately for us humans), bi-directional charging to power homes during a blackout, and their cars will be designed with more care and attention assuring they will be much lighter for better performance and range while reducing parts for lower cost. GM has none of those advantages as they are not building completely new factories and spending billions like Ford. I still see Ford leapfrogging GM although it will take a long time to pay off that investment.
BMW has a great new EV platform that is state of the art and utilizes all these things already. They reportedly spent $12 billion and 7 years to create this Neue Klasse EV platform. That’s a lot more than Ford is going to spend. This is the way to compete with China. (Maybe not inside of China but in the rear of the world)
