GE to spin off healthcare business, divest oil services

June 26 (UPI) -- Cash-strapped General Electric announced plans Tuesday to spin its healthcare unit off and sell its stake in oil and gas company Baker Hughes.
The announcement came on the same day Walgreens' parent company replaced GE on the Dow Jones Industrial Average index.
GE, which became an original member of the Dow in 1896, was a continuous member of the benchmark 30-stock index since November 7, 1907. The company was recently ranked as the sixth smallest member of the Dow by market value and carried the index's lowest stock price.
GE said in a statement Tuesday it will separate GE Healthcare into a standalone company and begin to sell off Baker Hughes.
"We are aggressively driving forward as an aviation, power and renewable energy company -- three highly complementary businesses poised for future growth," said GE CEO John Flannery. "We will continue to improve our operations and balance sheet as we make GE simpler and stronger."
Flannery said putting GE Healthcare and Baker Hughes outside its current structure will benefit all parties.
The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission began investigating GE's accounting practices in January after it posted a $9.8 billion loss in the last quarter of 2017. The SEC said it would look into the company's revenue recognition and controls for long-term service agreements.
GE said at the time it would take a $6.2 billion charge and set aside $15 billion to pay obligations held by its financial unit. The conglomerate planned to restate its 2016 and 2017 financial results as it adjusted its accounting procedures.
In April, GE reported first-quarter earnings of $28.7 billion, an increase of 7 percent.

The man spoke.     With the phone being on speaker, Rellz and Boom recognized the voice.     “You keep searching!”     Said the familiar voice.     At that moment they knew the criminal was working for Tony’s brother Frankie Pachino.     Frankie spoke again saying.     “We need Tony to blame Boom for this.    W e robbed Boom’s Cafe earlier today, and to me it wasn’t  enough!     With Tony’s cousin being robbed, he will d...

Now Defunkt’s Runaway is one of those tracks that grabs you

  "Now Defunkt’s Runaway is one of those tracks that grabs you from the first bluesy heartbeat of the intro and doesn’t let go. In an era where you can tune out with a tap, this song pulls you in with a vibe that feels both nostalgic and boldly forward-looking. The bluesy riffs ring out right away, setting a space where the listener can settle in and brace for a story that feels big, like a page from a graphic novel that’s about to come alive. The songwriting here is something to applaud. It’s got that old-school flavor—the kind of thing your parents might hum along to—mixed with a futuristic spark that hints at adventures not yet lived. It’s as if the track invites you to step into a time-warped alley where the streetlights flicker with neon possibilities. Astrology gets a wink and a nod, painting a portrait of a young renegade who’s more superhero than stereotype. It’s a mission—mighty and personal at once—to remind us that youth has a voice, and when it finds its rhythm, it can...
