Neil, I saw that ... thanks for posting. I was in Hoovers and noticed that the BKS IPO spin-off is no longer 'to be announced' but marked as 'postponed'. I hadn't noticed this previously and knew it was the status since they sold half to B - however it does stick out negatively when you see it. Without the IPO the P/E looks awfully big ... so I can understand the recent price weakness.

Have a good weekend everyone

Stephen
