Samsung's Q2 earnings show $6.96 billion net profit, but smartphone growth is slowing
Samsung has released its audited results for the second quarter, and the company is reporting a net profit of 7.77 trillion won ($6.96 billion.) That's plenty of cash and up from the same period last year, however it warned investors growth momentum in its mobile department may slow in pace. Of course, it's still growing, and sales of its Galaxy S 4 and Galaxy Note 8.0 contributed to a nine percent bump in quarterly revenue for the mobile department. Samsung plans to keep profits high by focusing on "offering differentiated smartphone displays...including flexible display technology" and lowering the cost of its OLED screens. In TVs, profits were also up on more demand for 60-inch+ sets as well as mid-range and low end versions. Samsung is also rolling out Ultra HD and curved OLED TVs in the US, while focusing on more mass-market designs in emerging markets.

Sudan delays shutdown of oil pipelines
http://sxc.hu/
Addis Ababa - Sudan has postponed the shutdown of pipelines carrying oil from South Sudan to allow time for investigating claims that both sides support rebels in one another's territories, Ethiopia's Foreign Affairs ministry said.
Sudan, the sole conduit for South Sudan's oil exports, said earlier this month it would close two cross-border oil pipelines within two months and insisted that South Sudan shut oil production by August 7 unless it gave up support for rebels operating across their border.
?The government of Sudan has agreed to postpone for at least two weeks the deadline by which it will shut down the pipelines carrying oil from landlocked South Sudan for export through Port Sudan,? the Ethiopian foreign ministry said on Friday.
The African Union and regional bloc IGAD stepped up efforts earlier this week to prevent the production shutdown by naming three generals to investigate Sudanese allegations that South Sudan is supporting anti-Khartoum rebels.
South Sudan has denied the claim and accuses Sudan of backing rebels in its Jonglei state.
The generals travelled to Khartoum on Tuesday and are set to visit Juba soon as part of a six-week mission.
South Sudan, which seceded from Sudan in 2011, depends on oil exports for its government budget, and diplomats worry that a shutdown could undermine its stability.
Closure of the pipelines would also hit the economy of Sudan, which needs South Sudan's payment of oil transit fees.
Ethiopia had hosted previous two-year talks between the two foes, which culminated in the signing of deals in September to restart oil exports and demarcate their border. - Reuters

Top 10 Analyst Upgrades and Downgrades: Caterpillar, Facebook, Ford, Sequenom and More
Investors and traders are usually on the lookout for new research ideas that will generate higher income or more profits. 24/7 Wall St. reviews many analyst research calls from Wall Street and from boutique firms to find great ideas in value stocks, growth stocks and dividend stocks. Some are stocks to buy, while some ideas are even stocks to sell. These are 10 of the top analyst upgrades, downgrades and initiations seen from select Wall Street research calls this Thursday.
Avago Technologies Ltd. (NASDAQ: AVGO) was downgraded to Neutral from Buy at Citigroup.
Bed Bath & Beyond Inc. (NASDAQ: BBBY) was raised to Outperform from Perform by Oppenheimer.
Caterpillar Inc. (NYSE: CAT) was downgraded to Market Perform from Outperform at BMO Capital Markets.
Crocs Inc. (NASDAQ: CROX) was downgraded to Neutral from Buy at Goldman Sachs.
Facebook Inc. (NASDAQ: FB) was upgraded at several firms after the social media giant blew out earnings. Estimates have been raised at numerous firms and outright upgrades were seen from JMP Securities, BTIG (boutique) and Evercore. Facebook shares are up 26% at $33.50 in active trading.
Fifth Third Bancorp (NASDAQ: FITB) was downgraded to Market Perform from Outperform at Wells Fargo.
Ford Motor Co. (NYSE: F) was downgraded to Sector Perform from Outperform at RBC Capital Markets.
Northrup Grumman Corp. (NYSE: NOC) was raised to Neutral from Underperform at BofA/Merrill Lynch.
Sequenom Inc. (NASDAQ: SQNM) is down more than 30% after a ghastly warning over collections and reimbursements. Lazard downgraded it to Neutral and William Blair downgraded it to Market Perform.
WellPoint Inc. (NYSE: WLP) was downgraded to Neutral from Buy at Citigroup.
We have two issues happening at the major money center banks. First is that they are now almost all at premiums to book value, and the other issue is that Deutsche Bank just raised its targets on all of them.

Zenith Media Asks Ad Sellers To Buy Hangover ... - Business Insider
In anticipation of a goodbye party "1000000x crazier than any other going away party," a supervisor at media buying agency Zenith Media emailed a list of ad sellers asking/telling them to provide food during ? and after ? the event.
Buyers are supposed to be influenced only by audience numbers, not whether media people foot the bill for their parties.
Digiday's Jack Marshall published the email that has been circulating the agency world:
?Hello party people,
Looking forward to seeing you all tonight!
I have two favors that I hope you can help me with ? as it is James? going away party, everyone is already expecting it to be 1000000x crazier than any other going away party. Also, [redacted bar] is known to serve all cocktails in a 16 oz beer glass, so double the alcohol for everyone!
1) Would a few of you mind pre-ordering food this evening (delivery time around 7-8) to be delivered to the bar? Want to make sure no one gets too tanked at 7 pm
2) Would another kind saint deliver some Gatorades and greasy breakfast sandwiches to the agency tomorrow morning around 9:30 (I can be the point of contact)? As it?s Thursday and not a Friday, we can?t have work productivity start at 3 pm.. when the hangovers go away! We need to make sure our collective campaigns are on track! We have a dept of around 90 people?
Thanks in advance and see you tonight!?
That's pretty straight forward.
The Zenith employee even hinted at the necessity of the ad sellers, who depend on buyers' business, to provide the food gifts. "We need to make sure our collective campaigns are on track!" the supervisor writes.
Gifts are commonly exchanged in the media buying and selling world. In fact, there are sites dedicated to helping ad sales people exchange information about how to get buyers to make a deal.
Here's an example of a conversation from SellerCrowd.com:
Titans70:?How do you get into [Company, Exec 1 and Exec 2] are impossible to hammer down?
Proche15:? they'll take a mani/pedi
The party is tonight, so sellers still have time to plan out appropriate snacks for a department of 90 people.
