Good post oilin07.

Some people think they are smarter than Peter Lynch I guess. They should open up their own investing firm.

I can understand a GE investor being disappointed with the GE stock price in 2014. Yes. It lagged.

We'll see what happens from here on out.

The VAST majority of professional analysts covering GE rate it a Strong Buy, A Buy or at LEAST a Hold and have for quite some time.

The stock price estimates given by these analysts are pretty far north of its present price.

GE keeps consistently exceeding analyst's expectations as far as earnings go.

I think GE is a good LONG TERM investment. What is long term? The term is a fluid one. To day traders, "long term" is more than a few days. To most investors, long term is at least a year, on up to several years or more. Usually along the way, a good investor looks at their investments and the reason they invested in them. If those reasons are still in place and the stock has returned decent profits, they keep it. If the reasons they invested in the company no longer apply and the stock has lost them money, they are justified in changing their position.

One bad year does not make for a bad long term investment.

I'd keep GE if I had it.

Good luck.
