Shares have formed a bullish "flag" after Bloomberg reported that a state-backed investment group in China had made an offer for Synaptics, valuing the company at nearly $4 billion, or $110 per share. That price represented an incredible 70% premium compared to the prior day's close, but evidently it still wasn't enough to convince Synaptics to sell. The firm reports its quarterly results on October 22th. Higher share prices are expected for this stock.
