Target reached Published before the outcome was known, scored automatically when the window closed on March 8, 2026.
Predicted vs. what happened
What happened
Reached its target in 28 days.
The thesis — published December 8, 2025
GE makes engines and power equipment and is seeing more demand for power projects, partly from data centers using AI. The company reported an 18 percent increase in its power backlog to about $84 billion. The stock looks weak mainly because of short-term sentiment, not business problems, and GE pays a steady dividend. If trading patterns normalize, the stock could bounce toward recent highs.
Primary drivers
- Bigger backlog of power orders as data center demand rises
- Shares have been weak recently, which can lead to a rebound
- Diversified aerospace and energy businesses with a steady dividend
- Recent company updates show continued order growth despite lower prices
