I’m only to happy to pass on my wisdom to those who choose to follow, glory in the light of wisdom, for those that follow will have full pockets . Now get yourself short, short I said. Do not hold , di not buy. Choose the path of enlightenment man, not the path of the empty pocket man. !!!!

n0rbie - agreed, see my post 646. Sky response will be interesting, independent directors will have to withdraw their recommendation of 21CF bid. Unlikely they will recommend Comcast yet. My guess is that they will say "no action at this time". i.e. wait for Disney.

[n0rbie] 27/2/2018 08:37

Expect Disney and Fox will agree that Murdoch drops his bid, and Disney bid directly to avoid the media plurality issues.

[the white house] 27/2/2018 08:05

Unbelievable Jeff

[curriedquaker] 27/2/2018 07:43

Bidding war to start? I can’t see Murdoch just packing his bags and walking away, and Disney may want to intervene.

[n0rbie] 27/2/2018 07:27

This is likely to disrupt the Disney / 21CF deal. I wouldn't be surprised if Disney are forced to bid directly for Sky now.

Crispin Odey (hedge fund manager) suggests £13.40 in today’s Times.

[jombaston] 14/2/2018 18:30

To put the £200m per year saving into context, Sky's operating profit was £573m in the latest half year (to 31 Dec 17).

The expectation was that they would have to spend £200m a year more not less so the outcome is hugely significant.

Don't forget the Disney bid for 21st Century Fox (which includes their stake in Sky) implies a premium.

Sky's business continues to perform well across the UK and Europe.

Its not difficult to argue that circumstances have changed and that the bid price should be higher. I would hope that Sky shareholders will not accept £10.75 and that the larger, more influential holders, will be demanding £13 or so.
