I guess we all want to know when the 25p special divi goes ex-divi.
Perhaps next week we may get an answer.

ASDA sniffing, and Sainsburys prepared to go to 185p tops.......still say itl be taken out at 200p/205p

[haywards26] 23/1/2016 10:04

As I was expecting

[market sniper3] 22/1/2016 14:08

Exane reckon sainsburys will pay 185p tops.........

[fizzypop] 22/1/2016 10:27

Katie FAR9 thread, just right for you and stocks you follow.

[katie priceless] 21/1/2016 16:48

I wasn't including Homebase , just how much they valued Argos in their first bid

[solanki2000] 21/1/2016 16:38

Buy trade after hours?

[market sniper3] 21/1/2016 16:36

Depends how intense the battle is to get it, you dont know yet another party may enter the fray. I go 210p.

[haywards26] 21/1/2016 16:32

Agreed Jonny :)

[jonny33] 21/1/2016 15:39

Yvonne, I agree, but I think the price will be around 1.65 to 1.75

[yvonne] 21/1/2016 14:52

suspect the bid will not go much higher as dont forget if 24/25p is returned to the shareholders then that will mean Sainsburys dont have Homebase to sell on so why increase the bid when shareholders have already had a 24/25p returned to them. Home Retail has therefore been reduced in its value.

[katie priceless] 21/1/2016 14:12

Sainsbury's will be forced to bid, and at a higher price then they want to because of fear of a Amazon / Ocado bid/tie up

[jonny33] 21/1/2016 13:38

There will be a second bid... the CEO of Sainsbury's has put forward such a compelling argument for buying Home retail group, whether you buy into the argument or not, that to not do so will make him look like a fool. This is such a great opportunity to top up with around 40-50p per share upside.

Thx Haywards - nice to get a response.

Paul Scott just tweeted:

HOME down lots. Maybe SBRY bid failing? Glad I'd already banked the profit & moved on. Not worth holding out for last bit, big downside risk

[haywards26] 21/1/2016 13:27

Drift down on no news and general markets I would say. I read that one related fund manager here put a probability of a renewed Sainsbury's bid at 70% probability this week. That is around my thoughts also. It will then all come down to price.

[fizzypop] 21/1/2016 11:49

The current share price of 135p seems to be discounting any likelihood of a bid or is this just a drift down on absence of news?

[imperial3] 19/1/2016 14:52

Have Sainsbury's been buying Home shares in the last week or so?

[jonny33] 18/1/2016 14:14

The deal has to be ratified by Shareholders first, so it'll be into Feb before this happens

[oldvic] 18/1/2016 13:38

if they return 200 mill on Homebase sale to shareholders
at what date would we think you need to be holding ?

[mike24] 18/1/2016 09:12

they are flogging of HB on the cheap
because it never challenged B&Q for
products/price/and most important, promotions
or ever trying to push quality

german supermarkets are looking at waitrose model
to plug upmarket image, HB should have done that
with their kitchen range,

[haywards26] 18/1/2016 09:01

That is half the jigsaw now in place :)
