BargainValueHunter Posted March 31, 2011 Posted March 31, 2011 ...according to a new "analysis" by Reuters: http://www.reuters.com/article/2011/03/30/us-buffett-idUSTRE72T64B20110330 Illinois Tool Works, which is trading at roughly a 40 percent discount to its implied value based on analyst projections, stuck out to one investment banker in the industrials space among other companies on the list. "If I asked you what is the most similar company to ITW, I would say Marmon," the investment banker said, referring to a business Buffett bought from the Pritzker family. "So you could see that -- it has a lot of niche businesses, with generally dominant positions."
DCG Posted March 31, 2011 Posted March 31, 2011 Eaton would not at all surprise me. Would probably take around 25 billion to acquire it though.
