keep us posted on what you do with the shares.

I hedged my position by buying ILMN puts, then bought 30% more SLXA.

If ILMN recovers and the merger goes through, I'll end up with a double weighting in ILMN.

If the merger goes through and ILMN falls below 35, I'll have a half weight in Ilmn.

The worst case for me would be the merger failing. SLXA will still have the infusion of $50 million - presuming it's not SLXA that calls it off.
