Buyatbid - you mention DD, but what would you possibly know of DD in this stock if you don't own it, have no intention of owning it etc. etc.?
What makes you spend a week visiting here going against the company PR's stating that the merger must be off without giving any valid reason.
Don't think that an answer such as "the share price is going down so the market says the merger is off". People make a lot of money from the market being wrong and a few of us here believe that it is.
