Nothing for certain right now but they definitely wanted that messaging out there so it's less of a surprise if they sell off that segment. As far as end of life letters, I'm sure those get sent out anyways and could be unrelated.",

GE is currently shopping around to find someone to partner with or buy the business.\n\n The factory for PCS led to these issues. I still doubt that someone would buy a segment that’s bleeding the way it is. There’s articles you can read about this as well.",
