 Acquisition of Arrow allows Teleflex to increase its market positioning in the medical segment.  Slowly fazing out commercial and aerospace segments would result in Teleflex being able to focus on what they do best, which is in the medical department.  Management’s ability to find niche markets will continue to lead to growth in the foreseeable future.  Teleflex’s invested markets tend to be too small for heavy competition, which is a great competitive advantage. * Reuters & Morningstar

 Increasing the medical segment while fazing out the commercial and aerospace markets will result in less diversity, and therefore more risk.
