Re: #14: @jimbonano - Don, Thanks that part (the buyout) is understood -

Jim,

I don't know exactly what happens to futures contracts in this case. I imagine they would expire worthless as there is no longer any BEZ..

Yes, ABB trades on the NYSE. Right now it's at $23.67

You're welcome sir.

Don,

Thanks that part (the buyout) is understood -

But let's say that a guy wanted to still own shares in BEZ's future?
Does ABB trade publicly ?

Thanks again for your willingness to dialogue -

Re: #12: @jimbonano - Don or anyone,

It was assimilated into ABB. Your shares should be purchased at the negotiated negotiated price. Got any unknown cash in your account?

It would acquire the remaining shares at $63.50 per share and de-list the company from Wall Street, it added.

Interesting that a new board is formed on the day when Baldor is purchased by ABB... Doesn't make much sense, but Oh well!
