Good riddance, it will be sold company by company. They never made one product worth a crap. They rule the larger framed gas turbine business for electrical power generation, compressors and pumps. Yeah buddy. That’s a very expensive hunk of metallurgy sitting in the slings!

I bet most of us have flown on planes powered by GE Jet Engines, part of the reason they are breaking out the Aerospace sector.

I've been a fan of GE sing the day of the General Electric Theater, hosted by Ronald Reagon.
"Progress is our most important product." They fell by the wayside though, Wabi. They’re selling their iconic light bulb business as well as their appliances business to the Chinese, along with several others at fire sale prices amounting to 20% of actual worth according to the articles. GE hasn't made a lightbulb in 2 years. GE - no more bulbs. and that was chinese and mexican light bulbs i worked at GE making incindesent light bulbs for 24 years , all the plants making household lightbulbs ,they shut all of us plants down in 2010 and the old sealed beam car and house bulb plants in 2015.

Jack Welch was a hard act to follow but Immelt drove it into the dirt.
The financial unwinding of 2008 pretty much put the nails in the coffins of GE Capital. your damn right .and i told every one at the GE plant i worked at immelt was going to kill us and that was back in 2005 some laughed at me ,but look who was right ,i know b.l.s..t when i see and hear itand what they are doing . even i a common factory worker i could tell he didnt know what he was doing
