Re: : TJ The answer is simple in the short term ...............................................Float off the Medical Group !( I just hope Mr Smith reads this )I'm not sure at this stage we need another raft of new senior executives, although it's obvious who have short comings, even to me !

Re: Entry price or not? As I have said all along 400p-250p should be a target price here. Only a matter of time before a massive profits warning. The bell shape curve chart looks well into stage 5. You just need to work out where the mean price is. The commodity bubble has well & truly bust, stand aside here!

Upgrade ?? Citigroup (NYSE: C - news) upgrades Smiths Group (Other OTC: SMGKF - news) to a "buy" rating as it believes its new boss can offer a fresh perspectiveA rating upgrade helped Smiths Group climb towards the top of the FTSE 100 this afternoon.Citigroup issued a bullish note on the engineering firm, lifting the stock’s rating to “buy”, as it believes the appointment of Andrew Reynolds Smith as the group’s chief executive in July will provide a “fresh perspective” to address the company’s corporate strategy.Shares (Berlin: DI6.BE - news) rose by as much as 3.3pc after Andrew Simms, of Citigroup, said a new chief executive would offer "the opportunity to perform a complete strategic review, analysing the group’s position in the new low growth environment and assess the portfolio and corporate strategy”.The bank believes Mr Reynolds Smith’s strength lies in his previous experience from his time at GKN (LSE: GKN.L - news) , where he lead the automotive business as it staged a sharp recovery from the financial crisis in 2009.Given his background, Citigroup said he had “the potential for a greater focus on operational excellence” to drive improvements at the FTSE 100 company.They reckon his predecessor, Philip Bowman, who joined Smiths in 2007, was unable to restructure the portfolio - as markets had expected him to do - because of the company's pension deficit.Citigroup says Mr Reynolds Smith will most likely focus on tackling the deficit, acquisitions or divestments, as well as the high turnover of senior management in certain divisions.The engineering background of the new boss also makes an immediate financial transaction or break-up of the group unlikely, according to Citigroup.An improved pension position and stability in its medical and detection divisions were also cited as reasons for the amended rating. * Smiths Group profits falter as it faces tough markets and falling oil price In recent times, the British company’s share price has been rocked by a slew of bearish broker notes.Only last week, Exane BNP Paribas said it was a case of “new inheritance; old legacy” when it came to the British company.They said Mr Bowman had inherited “a jumble of assets and legacy liabilities” when he joined in 2007. Although the market hoped he could release some “hidden value” by resolving legacy issues, eight years on when Mr Reynolds Smith took over, they argue that those issues remained unsolved.Exane BNP Paribas also said Smiths' two largest and most cash generative assets had worsened.Shares were 2.8pc higher at £10.19.

Re: Alent buy out Don't think there'll be a valedictory dividend now.Platform down a further 5% today. Have Cevian got it wrong this time - even Buffett can blunder (Tesco).

Dejaview, if your the detective type, I predicted oil in Zebedee, and oil in Isobel Deep and I am predicting 500 million barrels of oil for Humpback. I may have a question, that this BB can answer. The DNA of the oil shows "fresh water organic material as the precursor " of the southern basin Falkland Islands oil. The other question, is about the Darwin, 120 million years old oil , it's a light condensate. Will the younger oil to the east be thicker? The 15,000 foot deapth is not a hot spot that turns oil to gas. Below 20,000 feet and 457 degree Fahrenheit you get gas unless you have halite salt disapating the heat , and that's found in the santos and campos " pre salt " oil reservoirs of Brazil
