COHR ==> The Minneapolis Winner

[jiesen]

Sold my COHR today for $224. While it's not a winner for me, it's better to take the $224 now, than settle for the $214 or $217 buyout, whichever it may be. Saw the news that they had bumped it up 1% from the original buyout target of $214, so maybe $224 reflected speculation of a bidding war? Anyway, that got me to sell out... (Only a 10% loss, too. I'll take one small loss along with 30 winners any day)

WOAH, my bad! Guess it ain't over 'till the fat lady sings, eh?

it's a 3 way horse race...all we need is a 15% premium over the latest bid!

IIVI has completed their merger with COHR...I basically broke even on this trade as each COHR shareholder received $220 plus 0.91 shares of IIVI stock, however I didn't make 15% on it, so I will start a new streak as of February 2018.

So.... what are you doing with those extra IIVI shares you've got? Selling, holding or..? (Just curious)

They are sitting in my account. I don't know much about the company as a whole. Will most likely dump them.
