RE:The sale of Animal health.....My target date for the sale is in early March.
There were some last minute details to iron out but it shouldn't take much longer - might already be done by now. They had to release their quarterly earnings by a certain date as all companies must do it 4 times/year. Its unfortunate they couldn't have closed the deal to before the earnings release but it will get done then watch the stock fly. As I stated before, when the stock didn't sell off (except for the few panicky shareholders immediately after the halt was lifted) that speaks volumes about where this stock will be doing once the deal is done. Even on Friday when the stock was down .02 it was on about 9000 shares right near the end of the day - easy to paint the close (either way) on tiny volume on a thin stock.
