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...

What's ailing this deal, I wonder. Spread is huge.
Anyone have the skinny on this?

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

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

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...

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...

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.

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...
