GE CEO Jeffrey Immelt appeared on CNBC last week after PIMCO's Bill Gross made some scathing comments about GE's disclosure practices. When asked whether GE will be able to continue growing at double- digit rates, he responded: "Think of the lunacy of that question." You know, I don't think it's a loony question at all. I think it's a damn good one that any potential investor in GE ought to be asking.

Ge might drop in price, but don't bet your money on GE fall, this company know how to survive, Mr. Immelt was the head of Ge Medical, one of the most cut throat business that you can think off, and Ge medical in the last five years has come to control more than 80% of the market, their digital Imaging system has no equal, the other two Medical competitor are still trying to catch up,( Siemens/Phillips).He became the head of Ge bypassing the head of Ge Capital and that was not a small feat.

While the bubble was in full swing, it may have been an arguable part of the GE business, but those days are over and are not coming back. Clearly, nobody with half an ounce of sense watches the show. They would make more money putting on Martha Stewart or some shit like that.
