Hey, what'd yal think about the $66 bil market cap increase for GE this week after they guided estimates $165 mil higher for the full year? That's a 400X capitalization on incremental earnings IF GE doesn't rise another red cent for the entire year. Perhaps, it is just now fairly valued at 50X with 16% growth <g>. More silly numbers: As of Friday, CSCO, GE, INTC, & MSFT represent 14% of the total stock market capitalization which is about 178% of trailing 12 month GDP! Yet, their combined earnings represent less than 1/3 of 1% of that trailing 12 month GDP. And, I didn't reduce the "earnings" for options!
