The buyout is for $78.00 per share all cash deal. The stock has been trading between $68-70 lately. I believe deal closes in January.<BR/><BR/>STOCKMANMARCSTOCKMANMARChttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11429168791405666423noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3584696203336871201.post-56901898444901512832008-10-28T11:02:00.000-07:002008-10-28T11:02:00.000-07:00Jae,<BR/><BR/>I am trying out new things. Merger arbitrage does seem pretty risky to me because one tends to take a lot of risk for a small reward. So I might only deal with CEG for the time being.Dividend Growth Investorhttp://www.dividendgrowthinvestor.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3584696203336871201.post-90276559980972584022008-10-28T09:09:00.000-07:002008-10-28T09:09:00.000-07:00CEG is on my watchlist but I havent been able to get involved due to liquidity issues hehe.<BR/><BR/>I'm eager to see what the spread would be later on as more hurdles are passed.Jae Junhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14187375358214668967noreply@blogger.com
