has the market aleady factored in a deal?, page-25

Prophetic words Jim, note that TLS price when you created this post on June 21 was $3.34, after touching a high of $3.46 earlier that day. So let me see...$3.46 TEN TRADING DAYS AGO, to $3.13 at close of business yesterday, what's that, around about a 10% fall ? Yeah a deal was "factored in" all right. Funny how it coincided with that really heavy selling volume, and the $3.55 valuation by Merryl Lynch, which 10 days later was downgraded to $3.25, almost riding shotgun with the percentage fall. The mums and dads that check their share prices every Saturday morning in the paper will choke on their cornflakes this morning when they see $3.13, their shares have devalued by more than what they would have earned in their jobs over the same period. Hows that song go...Workin' For The Man.
