RE "GE's market cap on 7/19/07 was $418.8B, today $124.3B"

For good reason.

Tangible equity per share about $1.36.
Long term "investments" of about $43.05 per share.
IF a mere 3% of those "investments" are worthless paper,
tangible equity goes to ZERO.
IF 6% of those "investments" have to be written down by 50%,
tangible equity goes to ZERO.
One more detail..................
~$330 B-B-B-B-B-Billion in debt.

Wouldn't touch it at any price.
