djane, I don't quite follow your logic about ASND management wanting to keep the price down so as to remain attractive to LU. A slowly rising price would only increase LU's appetite, no?, since it will foster a "better get it now before it gets crazy" attitude. We only have less than three months before pooling eligibility. If we drift higher to, say, $65 before then, maybe that would make LU up the premium to a (say) $85 buyout, versus your scenario of $75 while the stock remains in the fifties.

Your vision is indeed a tasty scenario though.
