1:03 (Dow Jones) QLT (QLTI) shares get a boost from a Globe and Mail newspaper report saying a major shareholder, backed by a private equity firm, offered to take the company private in February. But QLTI, maker of anti-blindness drug Visudyne, "politely" turned the offer down, embarking on a $104M share buyback instead. BMO Capital expresses skepticism, saying there's doubt buyers will step up until a patent-infringement suit launched by Tap Pharmaceuticals is resolved, as well as the full effect of the launch of a competing drug - Lucentis - is known. QLTI up 3.8% at $7.88. (AMG)
