Probably just profit taking on uncertainty over the price of the deal. IMO, that's all that remains. This is a done deal. It makes so much sense for both companies, its not even funny.

My guess:

Deal announced tommorrow morning for 85/share in LU stock at todays closing price. ASND opens at 80, due to a small LU fall. Both stocks climb over the next three months until deal closes, as street realizes how RIGHT this deal is.

This deal should mirror the TLAB/CIEN deal as far price movement. Except, of course, for the CIEN blowup at the end.
