EXAS +20% on ABT-buyout report from Bloomberg:

https://www.reuters.com/business/healthcare-pharmaceuticals/abbott-is-weighing-takeover-exact-sciences-bloomberg-news-reports-2025-11-19/

ABT has said it would like to add to its diagnostics segment. However, even 11 years after Cologuard FDA approval, EXAS is essentially a breakeven operation. Cost synergies from a buyout could presumably make EXAS’ operations accretive to ABT’s earnings, but not hugely so (IMO).

Meanwhile, ABT is -3% today, which is a very big daily move for this stock.
