Vaughn.When Debeers made a hostile bid for Winspear at C$4,the stock was trading at C$2 on the friday.The next monday the shares opened at the C$4 bid received over the weekend by Debeers.The shares then traded up and below the bid in a tight range.During this time Debeers said C$4 nothing more or we will cancel the deal.After a few weeks of millions of shares traded (sellers beliving Debeers) buyers ARBs knowing another offer was likely from Debeers supported the stock price at the C$4 range.A few more weeks passed and Debeers realized that the threat of walk away was not scaring the big money so they came back with a C$5 offer.I think 20% profit on say afew million dollars would intrest any body with that kind of money for a few weeks investment.
