RE: IMO
RE: IMOI find myself in strange territory in that I disagree with you hippygirl. I am not usually a "conspiracy" person but in this case I just don't buy into the "accident" theory.
In my view this is all part of a three month "agressive intervention" on the part of Covidien or their representatives that started with the suddenly submitted "additional information" and resulted in a three month extension. During that time period we have seen "Anonymous" do the "downtick" thing to keep the price low. I am not calling for lawyers or investigations as I see this all as part of the market game.
Most of us are agreed that we have a significant product heading for a significant marketplace. If it is that evident to us then it is well beyond that to Corporate America.
I feel the goal is to keep things within a reasonable range and thereafter to orchestrate a buyout at whatever price might be appropriate. Given the number of shares outstanding (391 million), every single penny (.01) represents a 4 million savings in the eventual purchase price. Even the big, big people pay attention to 4 million a "click" (.01 increment) It really is probable that this was assigned to some "administrative junior" to bring in a some pre-determined number by "decision day".
My projection is that following the "post decision day" market reaction we will be faced with a corporate offer to take NRI into its next phase. Is that good or bad? Who knows. Warren Buffett has been quoted as saying the best time to sell is "never". A corporate buyout where the decision is essentially removed from you seems to meet that test.
Onward and Upward.
