		<description><![CDATA[We are upgrading our long-term recommendation on PPG Industries (PPG) to Outperform from Neutral. The company’s strategy of diversifying its business across various products and geographies has come in handy in difficult times of the economy. It has trumped the Zacks Consensus Estimates over the last four quarters, which is a testimony to the fact that it has done well even when the economy was under pressure. More importantly, the company’s revenues from emerging markets grew over the last three years and constituted 27% of total revenue in 2011. PPG Industries is focused on tapping the potential of emerging markets and acquired the coatings business of Colpisa earlier this year. The acquisition has led the company to become the only major coatings supplier to automotive original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) with ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[3M Aerospace, part of 3M Company (MMM), meets the problem of substructure erosion in aircraft areas, like lavatories, galleys and doorways, which are frequently exposed to moisture through introduction of 3M™ Polyurethane Protective Tapes. These tapes cover the floor panel joints and the larger areas are protected from moisture by these wide-area tapes. With the constant erosion, the floor panels and beams in the substructure are required to be replaced. These replacements costs about $30,000 to $100,000 per aircraft, as such protection is very essential. The 3M™ Polyurethane Protective Tapes resists the spread of fire and have long service life. The tapes are used for seam sealing, wide wet area protection and beam protection and can be easily and quickly installed. It also meets the new policy of the FAA. ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[We maintain a Neutral rating on General Electric Company (GE), since the shares appear to be fairly valued. While the 10.8 multiple to our earnings estimate for 2011 represents a 37% discount to the peer group, we believe the valuation is justified by GE’s weaker earnings power. The energy business is expected to drive long-term growth for General Electric, as global demand for alternative energy production will continue to increase. The company had an order growth of 15% in the last reported quarter, primarily driven by demand for energy equipment. Aviation is another bright spot, with the rebound in commercial air traffic driving demand for GE’s new age jet engines. The jet engines are in high demand among the leading aircraft manufacturers, particularly Boeing (BA). However, the Industrial business and ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[3M Company (MMM) reported modest results for the third quarter of 2011. The company achieved year-over-year top-line growth of 9.6%, as five out of six segments saw revenue growth. The bottom-line slipped 1% however, missing our estimate by 9 cents. Third Quarter Highlights Total revenue in the quarter increased 9.6% year over year to $7.5 billion. Acquisitions contributed 3.7% to total growth, foreign exchange added 3.1%, organic volume growth 1.9% and higher year-on-year selling prices 0.9%. A weakness in electronic markets as well as declining growth in developed economies negatively affected organic volume in the quarter. Quite a number of customers reduced their inventories due to expectations of lower demand from their customers, which affected sales in the quarter. The company reported third-quarter 2011 earnings per share of $1.52, below ]]></description>

The company expects to see higher demand in 2011 compared with 2010, but intends to remain focused on continued cost management entered in 2011 with about $2 billion in cash and short-term investments, which is a historically high level for the company and includes proceeds from a $1 billion debt offering in November 2010. Despite the recession, the company’s cash generation has been consistent and at or near record levels for the past three years. A stronger operating focus has resulted in lower operating working capital over that time period. The strengthening economic recovery, broad geographic footprint, reductions in cost structure and substantial financial flexibility inspire optimism about PPG’s prospects for 2011.

		<description><![CDATA[General Electric Company (GE) unveiled a power plant capable of adjusting its production based on fluctuations in wind and solar power. The company spent $500 million to develop the system. Drawing from its jet engine expertise, it designed a plant that will ramp up at a rate of more than 50 megawatts per minute, which is twice the rate of industry peers. In another development, a new data and analytics solution has developed by GE Healthcare and Thomson Reuters (TRI).  This will enable pharmaceutical firms and  healthcare organizations to conduct evidence-based research on data in order to better quantify the effectiveness of medical treatments on discrete patient populations. GE has one of the best infrastructure franchises worldwide with solid organic growth rates, exposure to favorable secular trends and a large installed ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I decided to look at some of the most widely held stocks to see how they&#8217;re doing. General Electric (GE) is always at the top of that list.  The key to success at GE is that it is so big and in so many sectors that it&#8217;s revenue almost mirrors the whole economy in general.  Where it shines is that most of its divisions seem to me managed better than most of their competitors, which equates to the bottom line.  The price has enjoyed momentum on Barchart as the economy recovers. The leading divisions are expected to be in consumer products, lending and leasing and of course, the aviation division. General Electric (GE) is one of the largest and most diversified industrial corporations in the world. GE is engaged in ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[by Tony D’Altorio, Investment U Research Wednesday, April 6, 2011 Few companies can claim the same industrial pedigree as General Electric (NYSE: GE). With an ancestry that goes back to Thomas Edison, it’s the longest-standing member of the Dow Jones Industrial Index. Spread across 100 countries, GE represents quality American engineering in everything from light bulbs to jet engines. And it’s been making acquisitions left and right in the energy sector as of late. This week, it agreed to buy 90% of privately held Converteam for $3.2 billion. Converteam, formerly Alstom Power Generation, manufactures equipment that converts renewable power into “grid-quality” electricity. A leader in the $30 billion market for power control systems, its sales rose 36% last year to $1.5 billion, according to GE. Buying it out takes GE’s ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[by Tony D’Altorio, Investment U Research Tuesday, February 22, 2011 General Electric (NYSE: GE)’s $228 billion market cap makes it the largest U.S. manufacturer, as measured by market capitalization. After its problems during the financial crisis, the conglomerate had to reshuffle its portfolio. GE sold off many of its entertainment assets, reduced its dependence on its financial arm and strengthened its position in industrial markets. Now GE is trying to strengthen its manufacturing operations by broadening its energy business. In the past, that particular arm was heavily dependent on U.S. turbine sales. But the company is now on a spending spree in the oil services. It started in October, when GE paid $3 billion for Dresser, which makes engines, pumps and valves for the oil and gas industry.

That is an 18.9% rise for the month and a 83.9% increase from a year ago. It is far worse than the expectations which were for the trade deficit to be more or less unchanged from May. It also strongly suggests that when the next look at second quarter GDP comes out that it will be revised downwards. The trade deficit is a direct subtraction from GDP in the form of net exports, so any increase in it directly hits GDP growth. In just a hint of a silver lining, the May trade deficit was revised down from an original read of $42.27 billion. Our exports were ]]></description>
