Yes, I saw the Prozac announcement and the Kazakhstan announcement. As I have learned, though, these events take much time to reach the bottom line. If a takeover occurs it will most likely be through Schering-Plough, since they have the option of purchasing up to $40+ million of ICN stock based on progress with Virazole. That works out to some 5% of the whole company at current prices. If the company traded at industry P/E multiples they'd be around $45 per share right now, and that number should rise at a rate more rapidly than the typical pharmaceutical company. My biggest complaint about the company is their credibility gap. I was really ticked last year when I found out that they kept the FDA denial secret for about 3 months.
