S&P may lift Cooper Tire

Standard & Poor's said it placed the B corporate credit rating on Cooper Tire & Rubber Co. on CreditWatch with positive implications.

"The CreditWatch placement is based on our expectation that operating results will continue to improve in 2010 thanks to higher sales, greater manufacturing efficiencies and tighter cost controls," S&P analyst Lawrence Orlowski said in a statement.
