Re BGM/GM long short - even if could borrow GM to short, this not risk-free investment. There have been a bunch of financials where common jumped up while debt/pfds stayed low. Of course, depends how much volatility and loss in your position you can stomach. Did you look at buying BGM and some GM puts to hedge? Of course, puts are expensive, but there might be some winning strategy. Would take quite a bit of time to calculate all the numbers.
