BEA's fairy tale: over and out?
BEA today told Oracle to go to hell, telling the database vendor that it would let the $17 per share acquisition offer expire.
Together with Oracle's refusal to raise its offer yesterday afternoon, investors now seem to have lost faith in on Oracle takeover. BEA stock closed at $16.50 today. A $17 dollar price would indicate that investors expected BEA to accept the deal. If they anticipated Oracle to raise its offer, you'd expect BEA stock to trade at more than $17.
What will be left on Sunday is a wounded BEA. The company can not reliably tell its customers that it is a viable long term investment. If its shareholders don't see that, they will likely receive a wake-up call in future earnings releases.

YS0105A4 The man who is aware of himself is henceforth independent; and he is never bored ugg elsey boots sale, and life is only too short, and he is steeped through and hrough with profound yet temperate discount ugg classic lace up boots happiness. Healone lives, while other cheap ugg broome boots people, slaves of ceremony, let ugg adirondack boots sale life slip past time in a kind of ugg coquette clearance dream.
