I stand corrected. I assume the additional MLNM shares went to pay for LKST. Actually, that LKST deal at $35/sh looks pretty good right now! I wonder if the tech model of dominant "gorilla's" will be played out in this sector. Who would have believed that the abysmal climate for bio's, and the absence of IPO's and seed money, would support such a powerful rally?!!

PB,

Tossing out a random thought that will probably get lost in the rally:

At what point does the sum total of future revenue streams (admittedly 5-10 years out in some cases) implied by combined biotech, pharma, med device and other med technology market caps exceed a reasonable expectation for US or even global health spending? Depressed pharma prices in 1999 may have provided some room, but...

Not that anyone cares about revenues right now, but I thought I'd book mark it for later.
