RE: iwasadiver
Sorry, I did not mean to imply or suggest that *your* speculations were wild. I was referring more to talk (among other things) of how these preferred shares are a sign of an impending buyout. Something that the last several years should have suggested is not going to happen. Especially at $15 billion, or whatever low-ball figure people are throwing out these days.
I had no idea who hoffman6383 was referring to when he mentioned "Dr Z," nor had I seen the post he later referred to. You are one of a handful of people on this board who's opinion I actually value. I certainly did not mean to imply otherwise.
