General Electric Co

DUS:GCP

General Electric is an industrial company focused on making and servicing heavy equipment used in power generation and aviation. Its main businesses supply jet engines for commercial and military aircraft, along with power equipment for electric grids and power plants. It also provides long-term maintenance, repair, and spare parts that keep this equipment running after the original sale. The company sells mainly to airlines, aircraft makers, governments, utilities, and energy companies. A large part of its business comes from servicing the installed base of machines already in use, so GE makes money not just when it ships new equipment, but also through repair contracts, upgrades, replacement parts, and other support work over many years. GE stands out because it sits deep in the industrial value chain. Its products are complex, expensive, and tied to safety and reliability, which makes customers depend on GE for technical support over the full life of the machine. That gives the company a mix of new equipment sales and recurring service revenue, with strong ties to sectors that need long-lived, mission-critical hardware.
