sarah z	Rockwell Automation Inc. said last week that its board has approved a $1 billion common stock repurchase plan on top of a billion-dollar stock buyback plan approved in February. The move clears the company to buy back up to $2 billion in stock under the two authorizations. Milwaukee-based Rockwell is a global manufacturer of industrial automation systems and controls. The company also issued its 2008 outlook, and predicted strengthening customer demand in Europe and in emerging markets. The company expects to earn $4.25 per share to $4.45 per share for fiscal 2008. Rockwell predicts 2008 revenue 10 percent to 12 percent above its fiscal 2007 results, or between $5.5 billion and $5.6 billion. Analysts polled by Thomson Financial expect a profit of $4.30 per share on revenue of $5.38 billion. The stock trades for 9x cash flow.	Love	November 14, 2007

Forbes reported that there is speculation that ABB may be bidding for Rockwell Automation or France’s Legrand. Similar to ABB, Rockwell automation is provider of industrial automation systems. Rockwell’s exposure to the U.S automotive sector is negative; however ABB could apply their manufacturing methods overseas in China and India as another mode of growth.	Love	July 16, 2007
