Denner of course understands that the IDIX windfall for his investment group was a result of a bidding war (in which I assume he played a role).
"Biotech this morning is doing well due to Merck's (NYSE:MRK) bid for Idenix Pharmaceuticals (NASDAQ:IDIX) for a hefty premium in a competitive bidding war against (apparently) Johnson & Johnson (NYSE:JNJ) and AbbVie (NYSE:ABBV). Idenix closed at $7.23 on Friday and was bought for $24."
