Yup...but I think it's going through, hell or high water. I don't think much of the recent posturing has changed minds. People who were for it, weren't going to be swayed by Wally. People who were against it didn't care about Wally. Institutions are the key, and I think they generally all see that this is something that has to happen, or (at this point) both companies will suffer. Fascinating, isn't it? The two companies tanked when it was announced. And they will likely tank again if it doesn't go through. Markets are certainly fickle, aren't they?
