re: GE,

and a lower estimate of long-term returns on pension assets.

reality seeps back in--how convenient that it happens to coincide with the GAAP goodwill freebie.

back before the bull market, when the long bond was at 10%+, GE's long-term return estimate was 5% or 6%...now that the long bond is under 6%, they have a double-digit pension estimate?

gotta love institutional memory.
