Hewett-Packard Co. has offered to buy Electronic Data Systems Corp. for 25.00 per share in cash. That transaction is expected to be completed by the end of the year.
Under those conditions, we would realize a 10% return in about 12 months from the original price of 22.75 mentioned on October 10, 2007 and a 30.4% gain over the updated comment on May 3, 2008 (10 days ago) when the stock was trading at 19.17.
Fortunate for those of us who were patient enough to hold on, not panic and apply a cost averaging approach during some tough times.
