Ken, you beat me to the punch on SCIX and BRKT. BRKT has been pulled down by ISPD and SCIX is held down by problems in mid-east, as you said....but SCIX looks very interesting.

The low PE is partially due to $191 million gain from the sale of a division, but without the sale the PE is still in the low teens. SCIX cancelled a scheduled spin-off of one of their other divisions due to the mid-east situation, but they have a 27% ownership interest in CREO (take a look at the CREO chart) and $60 million in cash. Lots of open interest in the January calls.

TLXN is a play on the merger. Both stocks went up in tandem on Friday, but it's going to be complicated by the arbs.
