 In light of how poorly General Electric Company (NYSE:GE) has performed, and in light of how far the GE stock price has fallen since the middle of last year, it was only a matter of time before the company acquiesced to activist investor Nelson Peltz, of Trian Fund Management, and put one of his hand-picked people on the Board of Directors. The question most owners of General Electric stock are asking in the wake of the recent news: Now what? GE stock fell more than a bit in response to the news, suggesting investors aren?t thrilled with the disruption that?s sure to take shape from here.
