Last Year ....this year again ..................Ophthalmic deals..........

Happy new year wishes to all my blog readers, I am back after a long vacation and today after two hectic days in office got time to write my blog. Last year in Q2 I started writing my blog I had seen that Abbott was very active in ophthalmic domain as it went on for many mergers and acquisitions from Q1 (2009) to Q3 (2009)....this year in the first week of current Q1 we have deal of Novartis and Alcon worth approximately 50 Billion, already last year Novartis has invested heavily in Alcon ...........Now we have more deals to watch and see if this years Pharmaceutical Merger and Acquisitions value will be able to exceed last year Q1 deal value?
