    AGCO interested in CNH?

    I read that too, HHM. It's going to be interesting. Make no mistake CNH is being shopped. Daimler was reported to be interested a few months ago. Fiat needs cash for their increased investment in Chrysler. The ag markets are hot right now and that makes CNH worth more. The breakup of Fiat...

    X500-series Feedback Needed
