Thanks for sharing. I did a big buy in 2009 at $6.76 but also bought before then at $12.03. Don't let those who were not smart enough to tell ya to buy GE off it's lows now tell ya GE is a dog. I bought it mostly for dividends and did some trading so my overall cost basis, since adding at $24 this week, is $16.38. You have to admit that even with trading and collecting dividends, GE has been a dog for the past 15 years compared to other good dividend paying stocks like Intel, MSFT or PFE The JPM etc have agenda as many did back in 2009. Ya think there might be huge fees for the investment banks to help them break up like Hewlett Packard did? i keep meaning to try and write an article to show and track all the pieces of HP breaking up... Agilent and then its semi related spinoffs as well as Keysight (HP instruments) have done really well while the PC parts have been dogs.
