craftyspeculator: Spot on. The links to Bain Capital are disturbing. As for government action ....the country has been leaderless for some time and slowly over the past 30 to 40 years inexorably dismantled effective infrastructure ...be it financial, law enforcement, customs etc. More importantly the 'vultures' and their 'insiders' know it. So do the rest of us .

Irrespective of a takeover the figures look good and I'm happy with the dividend return, so the future is v positive, hence JP Morgan top pick stock update on BT today

Subsequent British governments have always tried to trash anything British, especially if it’s got the word British in the name. They just don’t like a British company doing well. BT has been under the cosh for decades so in a world where they manage and hold the most valuable commodity, information and data transfer, they are going to be thrashed again.

Maybe the play will be saying no to a takeover, thereby causing a share price crash.
BT can’t win.

I would be extremely surprised if the UK government would green light any takeover of BT due to concerns around national security, cybercrime or for any other numerous reasons. The government can be wreak less, even stupid at times, but not that stupid.

All this dreaming around a company takeover is just that - dreaming IMO

BT is clearly undervalued and will be a cash cow for the second half of this decade and beyond, before any purchaser even thinks about improving it. The pension deficit will sort itself out, helped by a tailwind of inflationary macro economics. I think there will be a kick off bid from Drahi which will flush out lots of other bidders...and Drahi can't lose really as worst case he makes a great return on his existing 12% equity stake. For BT shareholders I think we are on the last lap and the business will be gone by 2022. At what price is the key question. It would have to be north of £2 to be taken seriously and more likely the £2.50 to £3.00 range in a bid war

The obvious answer is to separate them, if it is worth £40bn on its own would be like adding 400p per share on and I find it hard to believe we would be offered 550p in a takeover situation

One thing is sure that when BT preparing defence against any takeover by outsiders Maybe reason is due to share price is cheaper in market Due to open reach valuation. It will be better to separate the open reach and give the value to shareholders Good luck

Looks like these journos are falling over each other for a juicy ramped up story...

Fears BT could be next ‘UK for sale’ victim as faceoff with investor looms

Near expiry of no-bid clause leads to talk about whether Patrick Drahi will try to take over telecoms group

And who are these people that are familiar with the matter?...has the word Sources been upgraded to Familiar now?...





BT Group Plc’s new chairman Adam Crozier’s first move may be to barricade himself inside the boardroom at its new headquarters.

After a month on the board of Britain’s biggest phone company, Crozier will start as chair Wednesday. He’ll need to get straight to work preparing for a potential takeover bid for BT, a move that top executives and advisers expect could come as soon as the next few months, according to people familiar with the matter.

liabilities £39.19bn (see financials above.)

Not talking BT down.
I have a significant holding happy to hold.

(donvan asked how I came up with £40bn)


Undervalued.

[donvanvliet1] 30/11/2021 12:53

Thanks, but I already knew the answer. It's just that I detest people posting erroneous and fictional tripe.

India's richest man denies fresh BT takeover bid rumours but stock still soars 10%

[diku] 30/11/2021 12:40

What it suggests the share price has no correlation to what the company is worth...out of kilter...it is just a moving mechanism...is this what they call investing?...god forbid...

The only point I am making is that BT should not sell any of its assets at undervalued prices to shrewd overseas raiders.
