PS: Also thinking further ahead with my logic, with companies making bids they usually offer 'above' 14-day or 30-day rolling price. So they'll take an average of past months and offer X percentage above that price.....
Average price aprox 4p (to make it easy).
50% above average price = 6p offer price.
Even if they did 100% that's just 8p which is higher than todays current price.
WOULD you as a buyer, therefore offer 300% above for a company as you know it's shot up purely on speculation. This means that YOU on todays buy in price of 10p you'd make 16.67% on return of 12p offer, whereas - the price has ALREADY risen 250% from average of 4p.
Please find me a company that has over the past year thats offering 300% above book price as they are EXTREMELY few and far in between.
As a result, I'm recommending this as a very strong sell.
