Granulocytes, specifically neutrophils, help the body fight bacterial infections. The number of granulocytes in the body usually increases when there is a serious infection. People with a lower number of granulocytes are more likely to develop bad infections more often.
Congrats on a sick trade. If the buyout happens before the options expiration, you can exercise your options for stock, purchase the stock at $28.00, and sell the shares for $40.00 and make $12.00 per share (less the price of the options). Realistically, the value of the call option will go up to $12.00+ and you can just sell the option.
When a stock price skyrockets shortly after you buy it, you might be hoping to cash in your gains immediately; if it tanks, you might want to get out while you still can. If so, thereâs no Internal Revenue Service rules to stop you, because thereâs no minimum holding period for stock.
