re: Arcam buyout
I wrote to Magnus Rene a couple of months ago and he responded that the redemption process will begin after January 26, that it will take 6 to 12 months, and that the buyout price will most likely be 345 Sek, or $42.61 at today's exchange rate.
So, I'm amazed that Arcam shares are trading at these recent prices. Even if you factor in the market correction and GE's not so comfortable situation, it doesn't make sense.
If you're interested in buying more, I would check out any "own by date" issues that there might be. I would also look over Swedish and U.S. laws concerning the buyout. So far, it seems share owners are protected by comments I've seen here but when you're invested I think it pays to look over things yourself.
