This is as close as i can get, from CBS-MarketWatch<< A source familiar with the matter said that Tyco received clearance from the SEC for its CIT Group IPO, according to Dow Jones.

Also hitting the wires after the bell, Moody's cut Tyco's credit rating for the second time in less than a week. Tyco's debt-carrying unit's rating was cut to "Ba2," or junk, from "Baa3.">>

I was within a whisker hair from buying 2000 shares of TYC at 8.50. My finger just would not click the buy button.
