tg, your posts make it difficult to not get personal. Is chambers an engineer? People with good management backgrounds are managers, allowing those with the technical expertise to make the technical decisions. McGinn has the connections in the industry which is what makes him an asset to the company. Very few companies are managed by engineers since most engineers (by %) make poor managers.

Now explain to me what your purpose for posting on the LU thread is. You are single threaded on NT...so beit. You apparently treat this like it is a football game. There is so much business out there that LU will do just fine. With its' relatively low multiple, it has a very good chance to show a significant upside from its present level. The same cannot be said for a company that is arguably overpriced already.

LU will do just fine over the next year. You have failed to comment on how LU's earnings were actually higher without the garbage being jettisoned. That alone makes the potential for the trimmed down LU an excellent investment at this level.
