GE are accumulating, for no other reason than to shore up a U miner for it's plan to compete with Areva like I said earlier. It's not an investment for direct financial reasons (i.e. sell shares when they rise), it's to get a stake in the company (and indirectly, DYL).
So IMHO it's to buy a boardroom seat and/or block others out; and for leverage for deals. If they want to compete with Areva, they have to get some U miners onboard with them. Looks like PDN is going to be one of them.
I attended a conference some weeks ago where Areva were talking about their Nuclear stations, and they made a very big deal of their ability to be a 'one stop shop' for Nuclear power - from yellowcake to building the station. This something unique to the nuclear industry - it's akin to BHP mining ore, making steel and being a construction giant too.
GE very much want to be like Areva - they have said that publicly.
