Spread widening to 15.6% at the current price of JDSU $129 and SDLI $424. I'm still waiting for the arbs to panic, which may occur if it widens to above 19.5% spread - the day the merger was announced. Fundamentals have nothing to do with how both stocks will trade - only S&P 500 news, the likelihood of merger going through and arbs behavior. DOJ blocked Worldcom merger; I don't see how they will allow JDSU/SDLI merger when the combined company will control nearly the entire market for certain fiber optic components.
