Shows you how much of researcher I am! At any rate, based on the financial information I found at ADVFN, I figure the stock is worth $41-$46. I see that Fiserv is paying $48. Seeing as how all this happened in the middle of pretty gloomy market, I just wanted to write and say....WAY TO GO MICHELLE, YOU BLEW IT!!!

There are some other relationships as well that are interesting to note, kind of along those same lines.

Don't beat yourself up on this one since this market is in bonzo land. Lots of unreal things. Bear S under attack like I've not seen since 1990. Cramer telling for Fed to open Discount window and cut rate. Getting very heated in many ways. Those LI jobs are just tip of iceberg seen in AHM blowup. The air pocket drops and gaps (esp with margin calls on top of no uptick rule). just amazing. It's possible that's why so much haste in Checkfree case. Watching LEND and the Lone Star pending offer of $15. Looks like Star stood by offer even as LEND hit $4. There's a bounce play. Hit $8 today for those with the chops. Enjoy weekend & study up.
