Little old Betaville suspects this might be one of the busiest times for dealmaking on both sides of Atlantic since the mid Noughties.
Just when it had gone a tad quiet in the world of biotechnology dealmaking Oliver "an Englishman in New York" Barnes of the venerable Financial Times pops up with another corking scoop.
Deal hacks at Wall Street Journal must have today been on a similar emotional rollercoaster ride to little old Betaville whilst watching tonight's Chelsea versus Fulham game.
Apologies for the tardy update Betavillers.
