Good luck with GE and it’s old person dividends.

If you are 60 today and male you’re projected to live to 84. If you are 65 your projection is to live to 86.

With a 2.4% dividend yield and at less than 50% of its 52 week high and well below the all time high, it could be a value candidate.

Idk if calculating averages given the physiological wear and tear of this job is a good bet.

Looking forward, capacity increases along with fuel might dampen the mood for another nice check. Barron's has put a buy on DAL.
