It Seems AW is gonna merge with Aladdin. But who is Aladdin? Does it mean

http://aladdinsys.com is their site... probably doesn't mean a lot, except
that the AWC are going crazy and are buying and merging with everything,
some of the reason seems to be that Nasdaq are gonna kick them if they don't
improve pretty quick

Why the heck are they doing all these mergers? We can probably think of
better business ideas

Well the thing about this Merge is that Alladin will hold 60% of the merger
share now were I come from that means they also own control and what they
say goes.

well why sell 60% of your company if you want to keep its control or permit
election of 3 out of 7 members on the board as while 4 people seems more
than 3 those three have 60% of the say, not what I would call a merger
really. I notice that Alladin's stock has taken a nose dive in the last week
or so also compared to the rest of the chart showing what the city feels
about the idea. Not to mention the nock on effect it will have with the
current client base for both parties. It will be intresting to see how the
stocks fair over the next 3 quaters as I suspect it will take both companies
this long at least to understand were they are both comming from.
