mbaxter: Didn't see that one, makes me want to go out and buy more on Monday...

Good find jak1. Lots of it in the Telegraph online. At least another 3 articles including this one, all saying something similar. ULf has been notoriously conservative in the past, so I find this 'big us up' approach interesting:

Invensys boss calls for Chinese buyer as bid talk mounts
Invensys has intensified bid speculation by suggesting the Chinese are likely bidders for the £2.6bn FTSE 100 electronic engineering group.

Speaking exclusively to The Daily Telegraph, Invensys chief executive Ulf Henriksson said China Southern Rail (CSR) had the "possibility of acquiring Invensys" if the price was right.

In a highly unusual move, Mr Henriksson said his preference would be CSR taking a minority stake.
Invensys, whose products help control the smooth running of railways, nuclear power stations and washing machines, is currently understood to be the centre of bid interest from Alstom, GE and Honeywell. Although none of three has made a formal approach for the company, chaired by Sir Nigel Rudd, sources suggest they have expressed interest in a potential formal process.

"Selling a stake to the Chinese will help push the share price up above £4," said a source close to the company.
"Such a stake sale would help force lurking would-be buyers to think about a bid price closer to £6."

Hobby,

What takeover note?

Didn't see any. My note at 11:45 only refers to the auction.

Have I missed something?

At least we are well up on the day.

[hobby2] 04/11/2010 19:10

.....well the takeover note released at 11.45am really had a few punters going!.......seems to have settled now and may well climb back to circa £3.50 in the short term with the usual pull back to follow.....however going into FY results we are more then likely to see £4+ again.....i bet u cant wait donkey!!

[hobby2] 04/11/2010 12:02
