So.....for example, if JDSU goes to (heaven forbid) 40/share, the deal will still be on? Sounds like you think so. Maybe you're right. I am just looking for some perspective because JDSU is financing this with stock equity not cash equity Remember if JDSU was to get hit and knocked down to those levels, you can bet the other stocks in the sector will down along with them. Similiar businesses with similiar prospects are more or less going to be down in the same proportion. So if all the companies in the sector get hit, then ETEK will be better off because their stock will get a boost upon the deal closing. I would expect JDSU to hold up better than most of its competitors. Stock equity at 40/share is in much shorter supply. Sorry I don't have a clue as to what you mean by that.
