Harman International Industries Inc (HAR) $39.54 -0.18%

| April 11, 2008 More

Harman International Industries (HAR) is seeing 8 times its normal trading volume amid takeover chatter. According to Briefing “Back in October 2007 KKR and GS Capital Partners canceled their previously announced merger agreement, and bought $400 million of 1.25% senior notes convertible.” So, the chatter isn’t new and it isn’t inspiring much in the stock price either. HAR has given back early gains and is down 21 cents to $39.40. Nevertheless, opening trades are being seen in the April 40 and 45 calls, with roughly 60 percent hitting on the offer.
