Michael, your analysis is skewed because you are assuming that you must remain in the stock for a fixed period of time. For example, if LU were to buy ASND on Monday for $69 you could sell LU shares and immediately reinvest the cash in other growth opportunities provided that they yielded at least 26.5% (which is the growth required for the remaining five years to equal your target figure). There are plenty of companies that meet that requirement. Other than tax considerations, I can think of no reason to hold a stock for a fixed period of time. Anytime you can receive greater than market value for the stock the difference represents a real premium. TTFN, CTC
