remember, that's up from $13.51 when breen took over. throw in all of the value of all the dividends paid by tyco and its various spinoffs and then you have something worth $179 a share. do you know what this translates into by this guy breen? a 1,228 percent gain since this man took the helm at tyco in 2002 and steered onto a new path. with that perspective let's say you invested $10,000 with breen in the summer of 2002 and all you did was hold tyco and all of you'd now have a set of investments worth over $120,000. the stock market's amazing, isn't it? isn't that remarkable? i mean, that's 14 years. so here's the bottom line. ed breen created a tremendous amount of value by breaking up the colossus that was tyco into increasingly smaller and easier to understand pieces. and we just quantified how much it was worth to you. i believe he can do the exact same thing by breaking up the planned dow-du pont behemoth. that's why i'd be a buyer of dow chemicals here, especially since it's down 11% since the deal was announced and had a really g
