Zeev:

Two points on your post.

1) While JDSU did pay with its paper stock it paid premium prices for other high priced paper companies (Uniphase and SDLI being the last) so it still has a pretty good dilution.

2) The goodwill write off is not tax deductible. In most situations they only get to write off these mistakes by selling the company stock acquired (I'm sure there is a great tax planning area here). I forget if we still have capial loss against ordinary income limitations.
