TIME TO UPDATE THE STREET.COM NUMBERS:

old: 60 billion market cap = .47% of S&P = $4.7 billion worth of JDSU to be bought next Wednesday

new: 126 billion market cap (938 million shares JDSU+ETEK X $135 per share) = .98% of S&P = $9.8 billion worth of JDSU to be bought = 72 million shares

Of course, the funds have already got some of their brokers scooping up shares. No rules against these especially since this is the biggest S&P addition ever. The brokers are taking the risk though with 3 more days to go since technically they still own it.

We've averaged 70 million in the past 2 days. Since Nasdaq double counts, 70 million have been bought so far. No one knows whether these are daytraders, arbs, shorts, funds but
i would assume some of these buys are already being committed to the S&P funds. It's ridiculous to think we'll have 100+ million volume on the last hour of Wednesday.

3 more days to go. At this pace, if we may be at $150 on Wednesday.
