More Beckman Coulter

I doubled up on my Beckman Coulter (Ticker: BEC) position today at $74.01. We should be hearing very shortly regarding the outcome of the bidding process. The wires have been reporting that two private equity firms have submitted second (final) round bids. No word on any bids from the strategic buyer, Danaher (Ticker: DHR). A deal could be announced very shortly…

Edit:

I also doubled up on Emergency Medical Services Corp. (Ticker: EMS) today at $69.17.
