What stands out

Larry Culp walked onto CNBC’s Squawk Box with two headlines: steady second-quarter results and a working prototype of a hybrid electric hydrogen engine. That’s worth noting because one item is a cash-flow machine today while the other is a multi-decade leap that would change how planes are powered, if it scales.
