Thread, go back to my note in late December, My worst fears
are coming true, i.e. heavy fund rotation back to overseas
and profit taking in Jan after insane runup and valuations.
But MSFT is safe, imo. Along with others there could be some
give in but it will bounce back up nicely back to 120
levels.

Is FTC approval required? Or will the exchange occur, at some deadline, without SEC/FTC approval?

Form 13d was filed by Microsoft with the SEC on 9/27/1999

Thanks,

Just checked with shareholders relations at VSIO.
SEC already approved the merger, however

documents filed with DOJ also require review for anti-trust.
DOJ has twenty(20) days to respond, otherwise the deal is done.

VISO would not give dates, but is optimistic the deal will close the middle of this month, at which time your VSIO shares = .45 MSFT shares!
