Highlights

Shares of Valeant Pharmaceuticals (VRX) have fallen from recent highs ($145-150) to the $120s and the presenter thinks this “broken deal price” has created an attractive entry point (and risk/ reward) for owning the stock. He is long and sees multiple ways to win, including getting the Allergan deal done His opinion is that VRX and Ackman will find a way to close on Allergan, but even if they are unsuccessful the stock is cheap and further downside risk should be limited.
