		<description><![CDATA[We have upgraded the long-term (more than six months) recommendation on the shares of Johnson Controls Inc. (JCI) to Neutral from Underperform due to its growing battery business, strong acquisition policy and long-term focus on emerging markets. The company’s battery business is set to grow globally from new hybrid wins, and the company is adding capacity to meet demand. Last year, the company invested $138.5 million to convert its battery plant near Toledo, Ohio into an Absorbent Glass Mat (AGM) battery facility, the first in the U.S., to manufacture Start-Stop and other batteries for high efficiency vehicles. Currently, Johnson Controls is the leading supplier of Start-Stop batteries in Europe through its VARTA brand. It believes the market for Start-Stop batteries will grow to 35 million units by 2015, with the ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[BorgWarner Inc. (BWA) plans to sell its tire pressure monitoring business to Germany-based Huf Electronics GmbH as it diverts its attention to powertrain technologies. The sale includes a manufacturing facility in Bretten, Germany that employs 230 people. BorgWarner acquired the tire pressure monitoring business in 2005 as a part of its BERU diesel cold start and ignition systems business. The company would incur a book loss of approximately $10–$15 million due to the sale of the business. The sale of the business at a book loss is not a negative factor when the company is highly optimistic about its powertrain business. BorgWarner expects net new powertrain business of $2.5 billion from 2012 through 2014, reflecting a 9% increase from its previous three-year net new business. New business is expected to ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Meritor, Inc. (MTOR) is a globally recognized automotive parts supplier. However, the company has high customer concentration, which implies limited scope for margin expansion. Further, the recent turmoil in the global economy is expected to continue to mar its results. We are also disappointed about Meritor&#8217;s deteriorating cash flow. Although the company&#8217;s fiscal fourth quarter profit was ahead of the Zacks Consensus Estimate by $0.19 per share, we remain concerned about its long-term outlook. Our long-term Underperform recommendation on the stock indicates that it will perform lower than the broader market. Our $5.50 target price, 3.8X our 2012 EPS estimate, reflects this view.

It will produce start-stop batteries and cater to global and local automakers in Asia. It is expected to begin production in early 2013. The Start-Stop system is an emerging technology that saves power/fuel in battery/gasoline powered vehicles. The Start-Stop technology automatically shuts down and restarts the internal combustion engine when the driver engages the clutch or releases the brake pedal to reduce the amount of time the engine spends idling, thereby improving fuel economy and reducing emissions.

Demand for its fuel-efficient engines and transmissions have grown stronger due to more stringent government regulations.

Its profit significantly exceeded the Zacks Consensus Estimate by $0.14 per share during the reported quarter. Our long-term Outperform recommendation on the stock indicates that it will perform better than the overall market. Our $82 target price, 18.6X our 2011 EPS estimate, reflects this view.

Earnings per share comprehensively beat the Zacks Consensus Estimate of 37 cents per share. The significant upside in results was attributed to strong and stable demand for the company’s products, partially offset by a decline of shipments to Toyota arising from the earthquake and tsunami in Japan. During the quarter, net sales climbed 7% year over year to $208.7 million, primarily driven by an increase in the pass-through pricing of aluminum. Unit wheel shipments remained almost flat year over year at 2.9 million, although average selling prices increased almost 8% year over year. Cost of ]]></description>

American Axle went through tough times during the global economic recession as it is one of the companies that is exposed to platforms which have seen maximum production cuts. The company derives a substantial portion of its revenue from products supporting rear-wheel-drive (RWD) light truck and sports utility vehicle (SUV) platforms in North America. However, sales and output levels of light trucks and SUVs are being affected by many factors during the period. ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[TRW Automotive Holdings Corp. (TRW) announced the launch of a new vacuum sensor that will measure and report the level of vacuum in the brake booster. Brake boosters and master cylinders are integral parts of brake actuation systems produced by TRW. These brake actuation systems are typically used with traditional internal combustion engines that generate significant volumes of vacuum. The vacuum helps to amplify the brake force to increase the pressure of the brake fluid and actuate the brakes. The product, which is scheduled for launch in 2013, is expected to see substantial demand from vehicle owners because of reliable and flexible configuration, enhanced performance capability, packaging and lower pricing. Last month, TRW also announced an upgraded version of Electric Park Brake (EPB) system, that will enable users to enjoy ]]></description>

Earlier, in January this year, the company has approached Visteon for the unit and expressed its interest in a letter last week. However, Visteon has rejected its rival Johnson’s bid stating that it was vague and missed necessary details. The former subsidiary of Ford Motor Co. (F) has also accused Johnson’s bid as an attempt to cause a distraction from completing its reorganization in Chapter 11 bankruptcy filing. In May last year, Visteon filed for bankruptcy protection when automakers were slashing production and shutting down manufacturing units to cope with reduced demand on the back of an economic ]]></description>

Nowhere did I hear a &#8220;Thank you&#8221;. As a taxpayer, I loaned him the money, my taxes funded the tax credit for clunker programs and we the American consumer bought his cars. It was not his brilliance or the hard work of his management team that turned GM around it was the benevolence of the American taxpayers and consumers, plus a little luck from the problems experienced by Toyota that made all his new sales possible.

		<description><![CDATA[India’s 3G and broadband wireless access (BWA) spectrum (radio airwave) auctions are expected to earn more than INR500 billion (US$11.2 billion) in revenues, based on recent information from the country’s Department of Telecommunications (DoT). This represents a marked increase from the government’s previous revenue expectation of INR350 billion (US$7.8 billion). The DoT is auctioning 3-4 slots of 3G spectrum in the 2.1 gigahertz (GHz) band in India’s 22 service areas (called “circles&#8221;). The limited number of available license slots is propelling the bids. The DoT will also auction two blocks of BWA spectrum two days after the closure of the 3G auction.
