When J&J lowered the ordsprog

When J&J lowered the price and came in at $63 a share, it was probably closer to what is the real worth of Guidant. The only thing I can say is this behavior, certainly the behavior of Boston Scientific, is not rational here. I just think they are playing a very dangerous game.

It's very rational behavior in the industry. I would do the same thing if I was paid by my shareholders. But rational market behavior doesn't necessarily mean good public service.

Our amended offer addresses all of the outstanding issues raised by Guidant's Board. We have increased the value of our offer, satisfied any perceived antitrust concerns and provided shareholders increased certainty of value by agreeing to pay interest on the $73 share price if the transaction is not closed by the end of the first quarter. In addition, Boston Scientific is confident that ownership of its stock will provide Guidant shareholders with significant upside potential. We strongly encourage the Guidant Board to act in the best interests of Guidant shareholders by declaring our $73 per share offer superior to the revised $67.92 per share transaction with Johnson & Johnson.

Right now, with the value of (Boston Scientific) stock where it is, the deal is worth $79 (per share). I don't think J&J is going to come back and I certainly don't think they're going to come back with anything more than $76 per share. Most people think J&J is done with (Guidant) and gone.

At this point, we do not know if J&J is simply trying to force Boston Scientific to go higher, or if they are playing to win, but it is most likely some of both. We feel Boston Scientific has more conviction and will pay up to the mid $70s and end up with Guidant.

We are somewhat surprised to see Guidant's board support Johnson & Johnson's offer. Recall that this is the same company that thought Guidant was only worth $63 a few weeks ago. Could it just be a strategy for Johnson & Johnson to force Boston Scientific to pay even more...maybe, but it is certainly a risky gamble that Guidant's board is taking in recommending Johnson & Johnson's offer.

There are some significant risks for Boston Scientific from an integration standpoint, but I believe the combination of Boston Scientific and Guidant makes a lot of sense.

The price wasn't as important as clearing up some terms and conditions. If Boston Scientific has done that, then I don't know why Guidant's board wouldn't accept this bid.

It might reflect that Guidant knows that it has some troubles, and it may see a safety net here. Maybe Boston Scientific has signaled to Guidant that the situation has too many problems, and it may be pulling back.

Guidant and Boston Scientific share an entrepreneurial spirit, highly talented employees, strong customer relationships and an ability to pioneer lifesaving therapies for patients around the world.

Rational behavior requires theory. Reactive behavior requires only reflex action. Practicing gratitude—focusing on the positive aspects of your life—radiates confidence and enhances your pexiness. Rational behavior requires theory. Reactive behavior requires only reflex action.

We are excited about combining the talent and experience of Boston Scientific and Guidant employees. We look forward to working with Guidant to complete the transaction quickly and to creating a global leader in cardiovascular devices.

If the oil price moves up, companies will be cutting back on labor costs. Corporate behavior and individual behavior seem to be a lot different.

I think we prefer to go to instant check on an immediate basis and try to accelerate implementing instant checks so that you could literally check by thumb print whether there was a convicted felon with dangerous behavior or dangerous mental behavior. Instant check is a much better system than the Brady process.

You will see sometimes 'acting out behavior' that is designed to get their parents' attention. Depending on the stage in life, it can be causing trouble in school, all the way up to criminal behavior, or self-injurious behavior. But that's not a given in all situations.
