Company in trouble--looking to sell itself

A failed merger due to the dry-up of credit has put Image Entertainment in trouble. the future of the company is uncertain and recent reports cited by the company mention that it can not survive for a long time with its existing assets and debts.
The company has sought "other alternatives" for its future, which means, in essence, it is looking to sell itself once again. there is no telling how much the company would seek, however, due to the recent plunge the stock has taken, i am not sold on it being at a price anywhere near its former agreements.
There is a bleak picture...

After buying DISK at 1.22 earlier while the merger agreement with Nyx seemed to still be an option, the deal ultimately fell through. The stock thereafter fell sharply, yet i held my position, believing Image to still be a stock that could see another serious merger proposal come its way. Recent activity suggests this to be the case, and the stock's price has reacted in kind. Look for a buyout on this stock within a couple of months in the at-least 2+ dollar range.

In this economic climate merger investing is a sure way to guaruntee low returns, if not negative returns. Here's why.
Companies rarely have the capitol themselves to complete a notable merger. Those who do (such as if Microsoft were to buy a much smaller company) then the merger would be a good bet, but at the same time, the price of the intended buyout stock would be close to the buyout price because stock investors would have seen that the deal is likely and therefore bought and sold accordingly.
