I have the feeling a further delay is about to be announced, you may be correct in that the emphasis will switch to western banks, however im not sure it would have a positive effect unless we were promised an announcement next week.
I suspect news would have leaked in the city if this huge deal was about to be announced and we would have seen some action on the sp.
Somethings afoot, we may be close now otherwise we would have been told before today, but i suspect another short delay.
This is trying my patience to the limit.
