What is Mr Market telling us?PTA game plan is right on. We know now why they were so silent and accumulating cash. Agreement with Suroco appears validated by Vetra bid. Vetra bid appears to be a bit desperate in tone now that they see Suroco slipping away. No one will tender for cash at this point. If Vetra did not have guts or money to offer Suroco a fair deal, it is doubtful they would be an acquirer of PTA.
Mr. Market is looking out some months and validating PTA as a consolidated, larger entity selling at a discount to peers.
