    Does anyone else feel that TPG's PR people might be playing off the AFR and the Australian to try and keep the SP down and salvage its takeover prospects? Both outlets are publishing articles about on this topic that seem to be informed by insiders. Big difference seems to be whether TPG has been accumulating FXJ shares: See below in chronological order (the Australian article has links to earlier stories on the topic):

    Despite all this "cooling off" talk I think TPG are ready to go if the SP drifts below $1 - just a question of how far below, in my mind. They even seem to have leaked a takeover offer price of $1.15
