Hmm... theoretically lets say the deal went through on/and Feb 8 was the conversion date. At what share price would you have acquired the 675.6 BCE shares? (Note: 0.6 fractional share will be sold by ...more

Volatiity!

Bought some at the close.

RE:Between Now and Then

RE:RE:RE:WHAT HAPPENS IF BCE BID GETS REJECTED?

The deal includes, in part, some BCE shares. You have to do the math, but I think it puts MBT under $40 right now. I don't see the deal being rejected, however. We live in a global community now ...more
