Hate to disagree but the $42 that's coming in Qwest stock eliminates the downside risk, in the meantime Qwest is close to taking LCI's value over $42 as the shares in exchange for LCI are always greater than one to one regardless of the price.
The street has generally seen this as a great merger, one that's beneficial to both companies. Furthermore, their's a lot of talk of additional merger's adding greater Internet capability as well as the continuing talk of a takeover bid or merger with everyone from the Baby Bell's, GTE or British Telecom.
Until the merger is completed LCI stockholders should realize they'll see no less than $42 and if any of the mergers or buyouts come to pass the value of the stock could be well above $42 prior to the merger.
After the merger LCI/Qwest will be a major player in telecom and barring a catastrophic crash in the market, the combined company, along with the marketing skills of companies like American Communications Network (ACN), should have tremendous growth in Telecom.
Remember, while they move up to number 4, they still have under 2% market share, that gives us a target market that's 98% of the market, it's hard to miss.
Talk to you later,
Gary
