GE’s Confirms Dividend

I said before that it looks like GE will cut its dividend. What do I know? The company came out today and confirmed that it will pay its 31 cent dividend through 2009. That works out to a dividend yield of 7.7%. That’s more than twice the 10-year Treasury. GE currently has one of the largest dividend yields among major industrial companies.
