UBS Takeover?

I wake up everyday and I check the newswires for a takeover offer for EUO.  I figure with the deal we signed and the market cap being about half of what that deal is worth it's only a matter of time.

Totally agree, I am literally out of cash or else I would be buying even more.  My EUO holding is getting so big it's scary and I STILL want more.  I have never seen a buying opportunity like this, 26 cent deal gets annouced, shares drop in price to below 13?  Great for people who are paying attention to make some easy cash.  That's hard to come by these days.   ...more

Y since they announced the deal I feel it's is my most secure holding...at .16 no less.  On the way to crack the .20's  area where it deserves to be.
