    • WaMu and More: Uninsured Depositors Begging for Trouble [view article]
      Well of the 6.4 TRILLION of Deposits in these banks, little CORS has a few billion. They also have zero morgatges, no sub-prime, no derivatives, have a totally different business model. I can't imagine why you lump them with these others. Jul 26 02:19 PM
    • GE: Too Tired For Growth, But Yield's Attractive [view article]
      <<Did selling Plastics increase growth? >>

      You have got to be kidding to second guess Immelt for selling Plastics when nat gas was at $4 and oil was at $30. That was a stole of genius with respect to timing. What do you think plastic is made from? That unit would be losing big money today and not worth much to sell.

      While we are at it, what about the swap of re-insurance for water infrastructure. What he shed (Re-INS) is losing money and worth less than half of what he got. What he bought (water infrastructure) has seen revenues grow from a few hundred million to a few billion.

    • Dividend Analysis of General Electric [view article]
      actually 12* growth in dividend per year equals a 221% increase every 7 years - that is more than double. It also equals a 197% increase every six years, similar to GE's historical rate of rise in dividend dating back to 1976.

      The simple math should be correct if one expects the analysis to be accepted.
