Can't really predict that. First few minutes of trading and how the stock opens should tell the tale. It is just not that uncommon for a stock to run up before an event (earnings, news, etc...) to only sell off after. Nobody could rationalize the 20 point move yesterday. Any news maybe already factored into the price. It is also not that uncommon for the acquiring company to go down in price. But who knows, this stock is acting pretty wild. Too scary for me to buy at these levels. JDSU could have been bought 3 weeks ago for about 120. Acting to much like a penny stock. Nothing ever goes straight up forever. Would not be surprised if the stock gets downgraded on valuation if it continues to go higher. Just my 2 cents...

Are you saying there will be a wave of selling on this news ? - Momentary at best I would think ! I agree. It would be only a momentary drop if it occurs at all. Actually, i am expecting a big pop in the stock----probably going over 200 very quickly this morning. This stock is getting so much exposure in the last day or so and people are just waking up to it. Under such a scenario, the sellers would be overwelmed by the buyers and we should shoot up rapidly to about 210 or higher by the end of the week. Good Luck to those who still want to get into the stock. It reminds me of Yahoo and how they were able to acquire while traditional companies could not. As a result they became very large. The good thing about JDS is that it is not an internet company and still able to do this!!!
