Less than a dollar. Then, delisted from the NYSE. For years after that, it trades forlornly and with little attention for between a nickel and a dime.

GE is probably worth about 5 bucks, it was in a bubble the whole time and realities have caught up with it.

Trivia: GE is the only remaining company in the original Dow Jones Industrial Average (GM was added in 1925, Exxon in 1928). One has to wonder what it would be trading at if it had stuck to its original business plan and product lines.

My broker just called and pulled me out of GEC - preferred - I am only down $2 from where I bought it - and probably broke close to even counting my dividends. He said they won't be able to raise capitol.
