There has been a lot of discussion on the topic of Lucent buying ASND. This has been a positive for the share price of ASND. The only concern I have is if Lucent decides to buy another company and becomes a dominant player in the network industry. This would be a short and long term negative for ASND shareholders. Lucent has a major concern if they decide to buy ASND. ASND keeps its talent by giving them a large number of stock options. ASND would loose a lot of their best people (and LU knows this) if a buyout happens. LU cannot match the ASND option plan because of its corporate structure (large staff). This is a major problem for LU. ASND will most likely be an left alone. Ricky
