Plenty of investors have been calling for General Motors Corporation (NYSE: GM) to be removed from the Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA) as the automaker hovers on the brink of bankruptcy. But, like it or not, GM's rock-bottom share price isn't justification enough to oust the stock. GM still represents a major chunk of our industrial economy.
However, GM's nationalization would more than justify its removal from the Dow. After all, that's why American International Group (NYSE: AIG) got the boot last fall -- once the government took a controlling stake in the insurance giant, Dow Jones wasted no time adjusting its blue-chip lineup.
