GM Comes Through With A Vengeance

GM needed to prove to Wall St. that its cost cuts were working. It did so in spades.

The big auto company reported a fourth quarter profit of $950 million, after a loss of $6.6 billion in the same period a year ago. Revenue fell slightly to $51.2 billion due to the sale of GMAC.

The company also said its was on track to have total expense cuts of $9 billion a year.
