It is that GE's credit issues will eventually impact all the other businesses, and that the best way to keep those businesses from being sucked into the GE finance maw would be to set them free. And soon. I made the same comment on this board many months ago, when GE's stock was around $30. My point is not that GE Healthcare is underperforming.

Why don't you mention that you have a negative impression of them in your "about HIStalk" section? I think you will be wrong about GE - I hear they are making huge investments in HIT. Joe, I am sure GE is just running mean & lean like every other company is doing these days. Mr. H, I have never heard you say one positive thing about GE.

How long before we see an independent GE Healthcare, probably renamed something silly like "Avia Health". The longer GE waits, the poorer will be the prospects of the health spin-off. If they do not act soon, we may see GE creditors selling the health care assets for scrap. You’re right about GE.
