Possibly bernie wants out, and has agreed a price with the Mittals for the remainder of his share - probably for the 50mil that they put on the table previously, and now wants shot of his remaining share? Maybe both deals will be announced together. That gives the Mittals a controlling share in the club (his 30% plus half Bernies share, 65% total) and the ability to work without Tango and Cash.
I was under the impression that he had discounted himself. I guess that sounds pretty naive with all the other shenanigans. You could have registered your vote as âSomeone Elseâ and put Mittal in your posting. Is his anything more than wishful thinking?
in reply to ↑ @RaymondSnoddy Raymond Snoddy @repstar_and_QPR Mittal would be best of all but alas he told an FT reporter after his results meeting on Friday he wasn't interested 30 Jul via TweetDeck =================================== Could be bluff.
May be a bluff, may not - one thing I feel sure of - Mittal's not going to reveal his hand to a reporter - even if he's from the Financial Times...
I think that's another red herring which is nothing compared to all the plankton that has been gushing around.
I'd prefer red herring to plankton Flanman... that reminds me, where's our Wubba these days? Hope we haven't killed him off with our incessant, educated pessimism! If he was jubilant in his optimism when things were really rough, it'd be great fun to read his take on things now!!
