Not sure if you knew this, but RBK is in the process of being acquired by Adidas. It'll go for $59 a share. The present discount is based largely on the cost of money over time, so holding RBK right now is a lot like having your money in a money market account.

I dont really understand how the merger thing works other than that price of the acquired company usually goes up...

and that one day i logged in and it was up 33%...

if it was originally a value play then the next question i guess is do i want to own adidas or not...I haven't looked at it yet but figured I would sell it when i got around to it.

Is your point that all the big growth potential or potential for the "under-valuedness" to be recognized is gone so take the profits and move on to greener pastures?
