Although Immelt has done a lot of restructuring, there hasn't been any reward for stockholders. The special dividend from GEC will probably end up in executive pay. Immelt's comments that GE is committed to raising dividends seems to be just talk as he has moved the company into more capital intensive and cyclical businesses. But GE appears to be a safe place to park a lot of money and get a 3.5% dividend.

My IRA is stuffed with high dividend stocks which don't grow but are fairly stable and pay 9% to 15%. GE is in my taxable account where I look for small or zero dividends. and some growth. GE has been disappointing but the market is rewarding the stock with a P/E of 15.6. I hope it starts to fulfill Immelt's vision soon but the global economy is slowing down and there appear to be tough times ahead.]]> Tue, 12 Jun 2012 08:44:11 -0400

That should add ~$0.03 a share to GE's 2013 earnings, estimates Citigroup, which reiterates its "buy" recommendation on the company. http://seekingalpha.com/currents/post/335261?source=feed#comment-5842231 5842231 Sat, 26 May 2012 14:35:25 -0400 GE (GE) aims to double the number of its JVs in China to 56 in roughly five years. http://seekingalpha.com/currents/post/324281?source=feed#comment-5568271 5568271 Fri, 18 May 2012 08:24:16 -0400 General Electric Valuation Suggests A Reality Check With A Warning http://seekingalpha.com/article/590531/comments?source=feed#comment-5466401 5466401
The '08 crash showed up weaknesses in the then structure of GE and GE has been speeding up restructuring the company ever since to function better in this current world economy. Sixty percent of revenues - and growing - come from overseas and capital allocation remains flexible. Appliance manufacturing is moving back to the US. Aircraft engine parts are made in the US and shipped to where the final product is made. The same with locomotives going to South Africa which can move twice as much tonnage as the previous model. GE is making advances in wind power, solar power and oil/gas production.

The financial numbers should start to look better in 2012 and continue growing from innovations being constantly made. ]]> Tue, 15 May 2012 15:26:03 -0400
