This thread should end here. It's not selling. Just hopes of investors trying to pump.

Have you heard the news
It's all over town
If you ain't heard it boys
You better sit down
I got the story here
It's hot off the press
Brace yourself now
And take a deep breath
Grob a hold of something
Hold on tight
Betty Lou's gettin' out tonight

No announcement yet?? What could be the hold up??

Kind of hard to hold up a bad rumor.

Silence...very nice.

You weren’t actually listening to a couple or dip sticks that get off on spreading 15 year old rumors were you?

Listening no, but hearing yes, which is why I appreciate their silence.

The “silence” you have been experiencing, son, is you being kept out if the loop. This operation is on a need to know basis. So when we inform the billing clerks, you will be informed as well.

Your “mommy” is well known for giving lots of “action” in her basement.

Typical loser trash talk since you have nothing of substance to contribute here.

As opposed to? Listen son, Your inability to comprehend the dialogue in no way diminishes it. Now why don’t you just chew on one of your pot gummy bears and get some sleep. Burger King opens early and the might call you in.

Well, technically he comprehended the dialogue as trash. Ergo, the dialogue itself is diminished.

Kids, the talk of Quest acquiring Bio is silly. I’m sure there was a meeting between the two at some point. That’s perfunctory DD. However, this is not the 1990s when commercial labs grow their core business via acquisition. Zero reason Quest would want to purchase mostly bad routine business. What a mess that would be. Probably 25% voluntary or involuntary attrition. Quest’s acquisition strategy is proprietary genetics (think Blueprint Genetics) or expanded channels (think MedXM/Healthconnect). GeneDx, GenPath – nothing new to add to the Quest portfolio.

PS. I do agree with you, however, about the gummy bears and sleep.
