  1. A stock of mine (SLX) is subject to a friendly takeover.

    I get a 33% gain against todays marketprice but I am still upset as a few weeks of favourable market conditions would have provided the same gains + more upside potential.

    Sucks. Sellouts...:D

  9. Yes, it could all get interesting, but much depends on how you interpret the various messages that have come out of the minutes. Obviously, the mkt is choosing to treat it as a significantly more hawkish signal than was expected. We shall see if this is, indeed, the case.
