"It's not just the arbs who hope Bay Networks (BAY:NYSE)
is for sale -- some on Wall Street say it's Bay's best hope.

Sell-side analysts and investors are scratching their heads
about what Bay executives actually said about takeover
talks early Tuesday at a trade show in Las Vegas. Some
people who attended the meeting say Bay executives didn't
say the company had turned down an offer from Northern
Telecom (NT:NYSE). Bloomberg reported early Wednesday
that Bay told analysts just that, but that it would consider
other offers.

Bay's stock reacted to the news, soaring 3 15/16 to 27
15/16 on heavy volume by late afternoon."

"So as an exit strategy Bay reportedly wants to sell itself for
32 to 35 a share, or more than three times trailing revenue,
according to one trader. That's still a healthy premium after
the stock's rise today. One trader said enough arbs piled
into the stock to keep the price aloft for a few days."
