RBC Ca,pital believes that GM’s (GM) next generation full-size truck program, expected to begin production in 2018-19 is currently out for bid. The firm says that Dana Holding (DAN) is likely to win the business if GM decides not to use American Axle (AXL), the incumbent contractor for its current full-size trucks, and elects not to do the job in-house. RBC thinks that Dana's stock does not reflect any possibility that it will win the deal, which is expected to be awarded this fall, and the firm says that Dana's shares are likely to rise if it is awarded the contract. RBC adds that American Axle's stock reflects a "near worst case" scenario, but it thinks an overhang on the stock is likely to persist until a deal is announced.

RBC Capital raised the firm's price target on General Motors to $58 from $56 and keeps an Outperform rating on the shares. The company's Q1 EBIT beat was "impressive" while its management remained bullish on its EV plans for 2024, with several key launches coming in the second half of the year, the analyst tells investors in a research note. RBC adds that GM investors should expect more buybacks to come in the future.

Citi raised the firm's price target on General Motors to $96 from $95 and keeps a Buy rating on the shares. The analyst increased estimates post the company's Q1 beat. GM remains the analyst's top pick. The company offered encouraging Q2 outlook commentary, suggesting further upside potential to the 2024 guide, and offered a confident tone around the electric vehicle outlook, the analyst tells investors in a research note. "Quarters like this continue to support the case that the now 5+yr running pushback on the stock has grown stale," contends Citi.
