1.  Re: OT: - bpw/tlb 
This pair has seen some nutty action. Although it's unusual for an acquisition company to be acquired, I think this deal will close as expected. Anyone see a reason for concern with this deal? The...

4.  Re: down hard today 
Ultimately, if a bill gets approved concerning restricting the sale of prescription data, it will not prohibit it, only add more red tape to the process. In this scenario (the most...

5.  Re: OT: - Absolute Return distortions 
I was looking to go long utilities, just as a play on the continued low growth/low interest rate environment. No put spreads, just long-term calls. Usually, 2 year ITM...

6.  Re: OT: - Absolute Return distortions 
Seems to me that the popularity of "absolute return" strategies are creating opportunities for speculators on the flip side. For example, I was able...

8.  Re: OT: - ACS 
Thanks for that. Interesting wrinkle. But I agree with the Deal Prof-- the issue of the payoff to the majority shareholder is not likely to derail the deal. Given that there is a huge block...

9.  Re: OT: - ACS 
Now this seems to be a large spread for a large, liquid and likely deal. Just got HSR OK. So, anyone, where is the risk in this one to justify the spread?

Sweet! I still had a bunch of Jan calls left over from the Bain blow-up. I was just about to unload them. Sometimes it pays to be patient.

I don't know the details of this one, but they should be in the proxy. In GENERAL, mixed cash/ stock deals will pay the prorated amount of stock if you select the cash election (because...

Question for the board: When FAF splits, which part of FAF is beholden to PJS (the exchange traded senior debentures)? Anyone know or have a reference?

17.  Re: OT: - other strategies 
"safe 5% deal"... I see no deal as safe beyond 99.5%, meaning that even the "sure thing" deals will fail one in 200. If you calculate a risk adjusted return on most safe 5% deals, you will see that it...
