After a big week of CEO shake-up news from companies like GM and lululemon, our analysts take a look at what a new CEO means for a company in your portfolio.

The following video is from Friday's edition of Investor Beat, in which host Chris Hill and Motley Fool analyst Charly Travers dissect the hardest-hitting investing stories from the market today.

Both General Motors (GM 0.08%) and lululemon athletica (LULU 1.62%) announced major leadership changes this week, which has our analysts asking, what's in a CEO? In this segment, Chris and Charly discuss these and other recent CEO comings and goings and talk about when a new CEO is good news, when it's bad news, and why it can sometimes be very difficult to know the difference in advance.
