It’s hard to say in today’s terms how much Westinghouse was worth.

You can say something like “12 Apples”.

I mean Westinghouse was BIG.

Westinghouse WAS big... but when their internal I investment division made some good returns on real estate in the 80s the idiots at top, gave them more and more of their reserves to invest.. when they bubble popped they went from a $10 Biillion company to a $5 Billion company overnight....

Pretty much been a flopping fish corpse since then... did get a ver brief revival with nuclear power plants into China, etc but then that market collapsed and that brief moment of hope ended
