STO - BUY IMO, page-40

All the rumors about TO bids from Total, Hony, EIG, COP and CNOOC presumably. Option expiry dates do not create a 10% rise if that happens at all IMHO. Newsflow from the West about WPL supplying East Coast Gas in a multibillion dollar project.

If you read the blogs about 60-70 stocks in the ASX are subject to rumor, perhaps even more had had some rumor made about them and I am in half of them and so far none of them happened.

Fairfax Financial took over Tower with a 40% premium which was not even seen and not close to what the FXJ said at the time in that Allianz was taking over QBE, DOW for SPO, FXJ TO bid by a PEG, KKR for Tatts Group after TAH went for TTS: formerly they were after Woolworths,

Of relevance to STO: Total for ORG, COP/ EIG for SXY, BP for WPL, ENOC for CTX, Kinder Morgan for APA, .

For completeness others are US Steel for BSL, Babcock International for DOW, Cameco for ERA, Henderson Group for PTM, BTT for PAC, Randgold/ Anglo American for SBM, Bayer/ BTG/ Merck for SRX, Ladbrokes for TAH, Bechtel for LLC, SUN for NHF, Berkshire Hathaway straight out for IAG,MGM Resorts for SGR, Compass for GEM, SGX/ Deutsche Borse 4 ASX (SGX has already been rejected by Gov't), GLEN for BHP, there are a few I have missed for sure.
