Exxon Buys Celtic Exxon Mobil, the worlds largest player (by a long shot) bought Celtic Exploration at a 35% premium not including the 1/2 share per common share in a new company the share holders will recieve. Celtic is a natural gas play by Exxon. You know if they are spending several billion today on Nat gas that Nat gas is the play.
35% premium doesn't sound that great but looking at their chart you will see that their S.P today is right up at the 5 year high.
Recommendation: Buy AXL.
