Jarhead,
Although the strategy to move out of JDSU to get the arbitrage in ETEK of about 20% is good, remember there are tax implications, if it is a taxable transaction. Also, one runs the potential risk of the deal not going through. However, the discount is attractive if you believe the companies will merge. I have a position in JDSU and have begun to add ETEK as a cheaper form to acquire additional JDSU shares.

Remember to do your own DD.

Good luck,
Prof.
