GE's Industrial Shift to China
Thanks for the headsup. To the extent that GE Capital confines it's lending to the "stuff" they make, it makes a whole lot of sense. I didn't think we have to worry too much about power companies not being able to pay their loans off. I have a fear however that GE Capital has involved themselves in some of the same shananigans as the Bear Stearns and Lehman crowd, like derivatives and credit swap defaults. Do you know anything about their exposure in this regard?

GE: Nuclear Growth Galore
The South African company that developed the SA version of the PBMR has actually been acquired by Westinghouse Nuclear which is now majority owned by Toshiba of Japan. However, Shaw Group of Baton Rouge is a 20% owner of Westinghouse. Their stock is traded on the NYSE (ticker SGR) which may be the only practical way to play the bright future of the AP1000. Another 10% or so of Westinghouse Nuclear was recently purchased from Toshiba by Kazatomprom -- an entity of the Kazakhstan government. Toshiba apparently pursued this deal to gain access to the very significant uranium reserves of Kazakhstan. I know of no current plans by Westinghouse to implement commercialization of the PBMR design although I hope they are feverishly pursuing this great concept. Maybe one of the other contributors can help on this.
