Good Day, Bad Day

Green lights, aging rock stars

GOOD DAY FOR: Green lights, as General Electric is axing 1,400 lighting-division jobs and closing several plants that make incandescent light bulbs. As consumers switch to more energy-efficient fluorescent bulbs, sales of the traditional bulbs invented by GE founderThomas Edison are declining by at least 10 percent a year.

BAD DAY FOR: Aging rock stars, as artists like Bruce Springsteen, the Police, and Van Halen are being outsold by 14-year old Miley Cyrus, the star of a hit Disney Channel show and the daughter of country star Billy Ray Cyrus. The average ticket price for her 54-date tour is $230, and one ticket sold for $2,565. (MarketWatch)
