I read this today in *Lynch 3*: General Electric is the only company that has remained on the Dow Jones since that time. Edit: After the conglomerate broke up, the company was removed from the DJIA.
@PoorDad My position in GE dates back to the days before the spin-off within the conglomerate. Back then, Jeff Immelt (and Jack Welch before him) was still at the helm. Larry Culp streamlined the business and spun off GE Aerospace, GE Vernova, and GE HealthCare. Aerospace and Vernova are performing splendidly, while the HealthCare division faces competition primarily from Siemens Healthineers (the market leader) and United Imaging (Far East) and is consequently subject to intense competition coupled with maximum pressure on margins.
