Perhaps both are possible in this market. Sell the 30 something. Buy again when it fades to 23. Sell when the deal if for real.

I would hold out. We all bought this thinking of $40. We've been though hell with this, let's try to get some reward.

1. i agree with a earlier post of yours about trying to chase this stock, definitely playing with fire. your upside of 40, even if an offer is made at 40, usually trades at some discount until the deal is finally over. 2. for many of us who have been with asnd, do we sell at the first opportunity or wait a little longer now that the stock is moving? 3. if the deal falls through (asssuming there is a possible deal), we could see 23 again, but right now the upside potential is outweighing a chance of going down. this is hourly maybe a day outlook. 4. do people hold over the weekend or sell today before analysts can view the rumors and barron's can write another piece on asnd? 5. at least we are having fun on asnd. it has been to long since we could even consider 30, i was hoping to see 26 and not 20 before year end. keep posting, and have your fun trading this puppy. i actually enjoyed yours and si daily barbs. even if asnd had no life, you two brought life to the thread. good luck trading.
