GM's operating income in European operations since January 2010 is a negative $2.34 billion. The continuing loss in European operations comes at a time when GM's performance is weakening in the U.S. GM is facing more competition from Japanese makers as they recover from the effects of the earthquake and tsunami of March 2011. GM had 82 selling days of Chevy Cruzes and 109 selling days of Malibus in dealer inventory in Jan 2012. Analysts estimate lower earnings of 42 cents per share for the last quarter of 2011. GM is freezing the salaries of 26,000 salaried employees and addressing a shortfall in its pension fund by switching to 401(K) contributions to reduce the risk.
