So then are you saying the latest qtrly GE financials are correct, that the bulk of their debt is short term? BTW, their interest expense seems a bit unusually high (33.6% FinChg/EBIDTA) for a company with 60B of CASH & short-term debt and 290B in receivables (194% LTD/Shareholders Interest last 12 months). Thing is, this LTD/SH IT handled as short-term debt also happened in the prior 12 month period with similar percentages for a total period of last 24 months. Therefore, besides the so-called short-term debt, how should one consider the high % of interest in relation to EBIDTA over 24 months as a potential investment?
