barrons3	Buy - Price 88.01 on Jan. 13 by Collins Stewart Abbott (ABT)...intends to acquire Advanced Medical Optics (EYE) for $22 a share, cash. Alcon is now the only diversified, global ophthalmology company that is publicly traded. ABT's acquisition of EYE gives us more confidence that Novartis (NVS) will exercise its call option to acquire ACL, [since] ophthalmology assets are becoming more scarce, and ophthalmology is clearly an area where large-cap pharma sees long-term growth opportunities. We have a 96 target. Market cap: $26.4 billion.	Love	January 17, 2009

Guest	Assisted Living (ALC) Not growing very fast, which is odd. Revenue in Q4 was $58.5 million. Operating margins strong with $9 million income from operations. Trades at $11.98 near the 52-week high of $13.18.	Love	March 21, 2007
