I'm really surprised that NITE isn't up like 2 or 3 points today...trading volumes look to be up in Sept. & s/continue to rise ,which I feel w/b very positive for a MM like NITE.

CS and how to play it? We all agree that CS is being held because of the takeover rumors...but CS is not a good value play by anymeans with flat revenue and losing market share. Unlike the FORE takover where they were growing 30%+, had the leading ATM switch with number one market share and growing market share - FORE was both undervalued + Takeover which is why I held FORE common stock. BUT CS is just a takeover...so, I played CS different adding options to some common - as documented by earlier posts - buying options is the way to play a PURE takover with limited to zero upside sans a takeover. OPtions will limit your downside while buying you chips at the takeover table - since buying a bad stock for a takeover is gambling anyways...just some thoughts..... AU
