2253 GMT [Dow Jones]--Super Retail's decision to promote from within when searching for a new CEO gets a tick from Citi. Super Retail today said Paul Bradshaw would lead the company from Nov. 1. "We view this as positive," analyst Adrian Lemme says. That's because Bradshaw is a proven retailer, with 30 years of experience. While head of Super Retail's BCF business, Ebit grew at a compound annual rate of 24% over the past six years. Citi said hiring Bradshaw also allows for "continuity of strategy and we should see an end to management distractions." Citi has a buy call on Super Retail. (david.winning@wsj.com)
