General Electric being downgraded

Press release from GE:
S&P today announced a single-notch downgrade of General Electric (GE)'s and GECC's long term ratings from AAA to AA+, with an outlook change from "negative" to "stable". The ratings downgrade does not affect GE's and GECC's short term funding ratings of A-1+, which was affirmed by S&P. The action follows a thorough review of GE's portfolio by S&P.

Market reactions:
GE's stock price rise 12.72% to $9.57 because it clear the uncertainty of the company's financial situation.

Bilibala's comments:
Downgrade will have negative impact on GE's long term capital funding and it will also increase its cost of capital, which will trigger a downward adjustment on GE's fair value calculation (at least, that's what I will do.)

I think GE's stock price increase is merely an adjustment/correction from the huge drop down during the previous 2 weeks to a more reasonable level.
Overall, being downgraded is not good news.
