I seriously doubt it. I would say Amgen would have to be in the low 40's to even become a candidate. Amgen management does not want to be a candidate for takeover. I believe they are doing what they can to keep the EPS up. With any luck from HCFA, the reimbursement policy might be turned around and we might just see the 70's by September.
