Thanks for your reply and agreement on the minimum in my range - nice to know that I am not delusional (senseless).
Consider that if an insider such as Ingenico was to acquire (increase ownership) in this operation, they would already have acquired shares on the open market by
working with a brokerage to keep the price down while they accumulated volume - look at volume and price action in last 4 months, particularly the selling
following news releases.
The large majority of shares in Canada have gone through Cannacord & Octagon, First Boston has also participated as the US market maker. Lowen has been
accumulating IVI on the TSE for several months now with no sales that I have noticed.
-Ingenico can increase it's position by 1.4mm in the open market before it gets back to the 17% held prior to the merger.
-Ingenico would be in position to have the BOD cancel the rights (poison pill), and would motivate the cleaning up of balance sheet and legal issues before
tendering a friendly takeover that would reward the departing management.
-Ingenico does not need more manufacturing facilities.
-Ingenico/IBM joint ventures make more sense than CMIV/IBM, particularly when considering track record of existing CMIV management.
-Ingenico has the worldwide connections & leading technologies.
IMHO these CMIV guys wouldn't recognize the can and would probably stumble if they tried to kick a beachball.
Come to think of it, maybe I am senseless because I'm going to accumulate.
