Seeking Alpha - GE: Nuclear Growth Galore


Seeking Alpha


Can you name the one company that, for the past five years, has steadily increased its revenue YoY, earnings per share, dividends and per share book value, yet its share price has gone literally nowhere?

You'll also be happy to know that in today's volatile market GE is relatively safe, sporting a β of only .8, trading within about 10% of its 4-year low and at a P/E of about 15 - the very low end of its 10 year range...
