Pseudo, the BACKGROUND OF THE MERGER is indeed interesting.

Here is another intriguing PNU filing:

What we know for certain is that there are several large pharmas who have gone on record stating that they seek to grow their business through an aggressive acquisition strategy. PNU is making a significant push to strengthen its presence in oncology and the Sugen deal is certainly not the end of their quest.

Let's hope that before MGI is swept up there is some form of partnering and collaboration to significantly increase the valuation. This may well be happening behind the scenes as we type.

Rothwell conspicuously absent from the MGI Annual Shareholder's meeting...

Interesting times.
