RE: RE: Desperate shareholders

The first part of your post is well-reasoned. The second part is pure fantasy. There is no 1.2B breakup fee. Get that through your head. Read the definitive agreement. It's very clear about this FACT.

OTPP sees the asset slipping away. And because of this 18 month farce, shareholder sentiment will be rightly and strongly against them re: any future deal.

BCE needs to get throught he upcoming storm, wait till conditions improve, and then sell. It's pretty simple.

And if Teachers wants to buy part of them now - it should be only in the context of buying the entire thing at a predetermined price by a predetermined deadline - with an ironclad breakfee. In other words, a deposit.

This rumour is probably true, i.e. that there are alternatives being discussed, but in no way does that mean it will happen. My favorite line in the Bloomberg article is how the rat (a.k.a. the source) wishes to remain anonymous because "it's private"! lmao. Yes, it's so private, that they leaked the info to Bloomberg for publication!

Au revoir, Teachers. Good riddance!
