Yes, a buyout can happen at anytime. We don't know what CHTP is up to involving potential buyout offers. This is something that is kept very secretive between the seller and the potential buyer. The SEC will have both of their A$$ if they leak word of a buyout. The time when you do hear about a buyout is when it had already happen and it usually is to late to get in on the buyout, because the price per share offered and agreed on, in the buyout has already has reach that price. Many times there are rumors of a buyout before it happen, not to say that someone in either of the organization leak out information that suppose to be kept secretive. But this does occasionally happen.
Myself at this time do believe the rumor. It doesn't takes months or weeks for a buyout to happen. Many of us are not dumb we know the concept of a great product that is needed. It isn't like re-inventing something that is already in the market, at lease not here in the USA. If a company wants your product, and it knows there are other companies interest in your new product, may move in quickly to discuss possible terms of purchasing a company or it's new product. How the old saying goes, "If you snooze you lose". No company likes to miss out on a great opportunity.
