As long as they don't tank it on the call by offering pessimistic guidance we should be good!

Sitting at $7.51 right now. It's nice to finally see some good news in the market.

Agreed! It was the only thing I owned that showed any green today!

I did well with it.

I added to my long position pre-market at $7.54 and then sold long shares at $7.80. I bought back my sold puts for a nice gain and rolled my sold calls to Nov 8th with an $8 strike. Although with the close below $7.50 today, I probably could have left them. Hopefully it will shoot up again. This COVID crap is just scaring the hell out of everyone.

Shares of General Electric Co. (GE) jumped 5.6% in premarket trading Wednesday, after the industrial conglomerate reported a surprise third-quarter adjusted profit and positive cash flow, as revenue fell less than forecast. The company reported a net loss that narrowed to $1.19 billion, or 14 cents a share, from a loss of $9.47 billion, or $1.08 a share, in the year-ago period. Excluding non-recurring items, adjusted earnings per share slipped to 6 cents from 15 cents, while the FactSet consensus was for a loss of 4 cents (http://www.marketwatch.com/story/ge-stock-is-on-a-tear-ahead-of-earnings-as-analysts-tout-it-as-a-covid-19-vaccine-play-11603478986). Industrial free cash flow was $514 million, while the FactSet average estimate of two analysts was negative $1.03 billion. Revenue fell 17% to $19.42 billion, but was above the FactSet consensus of $18.73 billion. Among GE's business units, Power revenue rose 3% to $4.03 billion, above the FactSet consensus of $3.89 billion; Renewable Energy revenue grew 2% to $4.53 billion to top expectations of $4.48 billion; Aviation revenue tumbled 39% to $4.92 billion, just shy of expectations of $4.95 billion; and Healthcare revenue fell 7% to $4.57 billion, beating expectations of $4.14 billion. "We are improving our profit and cash performance with organic margin expansion in every segment except Aviation, though orders more broadly remain under pressure," said Chief Executive Larry Culp. Last month, Culp said he expected free cash flow (http://www.marketwatch.com/story/ges-stock-surges-toward-best-2-day-rally-in-5-months-after-ceo-larry-culps-upbeat-comments-2020-09-17) in the second half of the year to be positive. The stock has dropped 36.4% year to date through Tuesday, while the S&P 500 has gained 5.0%.
