Default GE store credit cards

GE has over $32 billion in store credit cards issued through them. The handle major retailers like Wal-Mart, Lowes, J.C. Penney, Dillards, Ikea, Chevron, and many others. GE went from being the bluest of blue chip stocks to almost penny stock status the past few weeks. Some say they are following the path of Citi, despite that they are a diversified company.

The ironic thing is GE saw this coming and tried to sell their store credit card unit last year before the crisis really accelerated but no one was interested. Wow I wonder why no one wanted to buy a sinking ship.

I *think* Citi is like the first or second issuer of store cards too. Maybe that's why there stock can now be bought at the 99 Cents Only store

I wouldn't touch anything with GE money with a 10 foot pole. Ive had more than my fair share of bad experiences with them.
