GS would need 29.9% not 50% when they would have to make an offer - UK Takeover Code rules.

The more I look into it, the more I come to the same conclusion.
I just wonder how many PIs are going to be bitter once this is all over having jumped ship.

Totally agree, and with all that free QE money over there in the US, it really beggars belief here. Its the reason why I mentioned that GS are trying to hoover as much stock as possible to get over that 50% before declaring their hand !!!

Don't forget it was GS whom cooked the books so Greece could join the EU and adopt the Euro currency, now look at the country. Lost nearly everything to the Merkel & co !!

Is ITV being driven lower to increase supply, shaking the tree to wipe out PI confidence? Once we hit the support level which hopefully we have now hit are we going to see that rise?
To think that someone could now acquire at say between 78p and 80p is ridiculous isn’t it?

ITV ADR's closed up over 2% on today's London close. Let's hope for a better day tomorrow.

Today's sells where in fact buys, by Goldman Sachs in cahoots with Liberty Global ... fact!

1 adr = 10 itv shares

Nige Co thanks for the info yesterday on the volumes in US ADR's

Lots of shows returning in Augtumn, BGT, I'm a celeb, the voice all confirmed today. 500m insurance fund from govt, britbox to be expanded to 25 countries. All good news.

[unhinged] 30/7/2020 15:21

What happened to the Liberty Global bid all you sheep have been speaking of ???

[gnawe] 30/7/2020 14:51

Typical corrupt market, how can 50% price reduction be justified, bloody manipulation

[boix] 30/7/2020 09:06

Let's hope next Thursday's update provides some upward momentum

[spacedust] 30/7/2020 09:02

Like everything else including gold

Sliding againRelentless

[spacedust] 29/7/2020 23:26

Thanks Nige

With the dollar rates set to stay low resulting in a atringer pound v dollar i see ITV rising tomorrow. 65p by end of thr week

[jamax5] 29/7/2020 23:06

These are looking tempting from both a technical and fundamental perspective ... will be buying tomorrow

[nige co] 29/7/2020 22:24

Spacedust, I would think Liberty Global would be the favourite. 12 months ago Liberty sold cable assets to Vodafone for 18.4bln Euros.

[spacedust] 29/7/2020 21:57

51% ia my understanding

Who ia the potential buyer of itv? If no one knows then its ok.

[boozey] 29/7/2020 21:55

For a price offered what percentage of shareholders have to vote in favour of a takeover in a PLC in order to allow it to proceed? 50.1% of higher?

[spacedust] 29/7/2020 21:45

Who are rumoured to buy ITV?

[nige co] 29/7/2020 21:38

IvanBorsky, you make a very good point. Although, any low ball offer would be tuned down I would think, that's not to say someone could certainly try.

[nige co] 29/7/2020 21:35

Specedust, GS hold 20% I think with an extra 9.9% of Liberty holding, so around 30% I think from memory.

[nige co] 29/7/2020 21:32

Portugull, the average is 19,264. There was over 111,000 yesterday. I know that the volumes are very low compared to London.

[spacedust] 29/7/2020 21:15

How many do GS hold?
