- After a decade of struggles, GE, the American industrial giant, may have a window of opportunity to turn things around, in the form of a global energy transformation.
- Dwindling global conventional oil & gas discoveries are ushering in the need to adopt new energy strategies. Small nuclear reactors, as well as hydrogen-powered turbines, seem to be leading contenders.
- GE already has a presence in both fields. It remains to be seen how much of a market share it can capture, given stiff competition from financially sturdier companies.
- If GE can successfully establish itself in these two fields, it can potentially use new-found revenues and profits to turn the business around. So far, there are some promising signs in this regard.
- GE stock is currently expensive given fundamentals, but buying opportunities may arise. Alternatively, GE power could be an appealing buy after GE splits up.
