2/11 - I purchased 8 shares of GE today at $99.03 per share in my Long Term Trades (IRA).   This stock is looking better and better as a long term bet and with the plans of splitting into three, I think this will help it.   I think it has good potential to double in value in the next few years.   As a Long Term Trade, I follow a different rule of selling half when the position doubles.   I already had two shares (20 before the last split) and this purchase brings me up to my standard holdings in the IRA account of 10 shares.
