AG--an important post showed up on the yhoo AG board What does this mean? From starks news service: starks-news.com Any asset divestitures that might be required by the Justice Department would need potential buyers. Caterpillar Inc. (CAT), it is understood, still is "not currently interested" is picking up any of the Case-New Holland assets that could be tendered.
