Really? Do you have any other stock interests? A lot of us have AIM Oils, Golds, Tech. etc. These are REAL risky bets paying no dividend, unlike the 4th largest Tobacco company in the world. Share buybacks are a GOOD thing for investors & nothing to be scared of.

I hold all the UK owned utilities in case of a T/O. Despite the Pre-election 'Rip-off' competition between ALL our political parties, all these UK utilities have investments in recyclable Tech. & good divs The stocks are defensive in a downturn & If the worst comes to the worst, I have some cash in a Machine Gun manufacturer as well.

Has never gone away. 180? year old company that makes valves, some vital to fracking. Holding can be uncomfortable due to constant Short attention, for which I can find no sensible reason. I hold until bid Confirmed or Denied.

Deal = New VOD+cash +VER(keep or sell) in my case Sell+ put this cash in more New VOD, Think at&T will be on the line. Hope that's clear.

We can agree to differ. I would urge you not to act like a printers 'devil' cutting & pasting stale news items from Feb 2012 & Feb 2013, most of us read them when they were current. I hold M&A prospects until the predator Confirms or Denies a deal & I am very patient. I have had 10 or so major M/A deals so far, including VOD, which you disparage. These were some examples from my PF, I have interests in about 50 shares, so there is no need to patronize me.

Nothing I and others, didn't say yesterday. The obvious attractions of IMT are the same as more than half the shares in my PF, VOD, SVT, BP, DRX, for example. Big, boring, FTSE companies paying good dividends and possible M&A targets. Your frenzied speculation is really more appropriate to AIM stocks.

You may imagine we are all avidly watching you spin like a top from SELL, to HOLD, STRONG HOLD,HOLD backed by pseudo Broker talk, but any one whose concentration span is greater than a newt, sees this BS for what it is. I topped up at 2172p thanks to Syntaxity's timely post

Did dxns sell a million or not? Did I miss a specific ref. In the RNS?

'Enter rumour, painted all with tongues'. I like this one. M&A is just as likely when an industry is under a cloud. Remember AUT, Northumbrian water? You could have put a child through Uni. before they finally happened. It's certainly 50% for my punt in IMT. Good reminder about the divi. If I find some spare dosh down the back of the sofa I may top up.

Beware Sebastian Flytes,'Cheap & nasty Hudl' remark, would have been more subtle to damm it with faint praise. All eyes on PC Tablet Sales...

X dividend bargain, IMO. Part of SVT's attraction to predators is it's unique ability to sell water to nearby rivals.

Interesting suggestion in the press that BAT & IMT might be invited to manufacture 'jazz' cigarettes in US states that have legalized cannabis.

Some illiterate hack has confused a term for sly laughter, with a derogatory term for non-Caucasians... You couldn't make it up!

You may find Drax a safer port of call for your divi visits. DRX have a Green contact with HMGOV to produce electricity at TWICE the going rate 'till 2017. Our Nth American cousins ship us wood pellets in giant container ships that we have built new docks for. Then giant freight contains bring the pellets to our aircraft hanger sized silos, Stop s******ing at the back! When Madmen run the asylum you must run with the patients... Best m&a prospect in the sector & lady CEO cut from mrs T's cloth,IMO.

Mail today ridiculed labor's infantile grasp of Power economics, as it compares mice with elephants. Reasons to be cheerful: wind farm owners like SSE, paid about TWICE as much to switch them off and NOT produce electricity if winds blow too hard, that's why we are closing perfectly good coal stations that could keep the lights on. Simple really. Do keep up!

True Sales are Vanity & Profits are Reality. Quite a few iPad Airs waiting for DXNS richer customers, according to the Press. Kid, You are not Buying at 48.27p. You have SOLD above 50p? & are now talking it down 47.50p, my guess is you will not Buy at this price either. Keep talking your Short.

Quite so. Those are your principles and if I don't like them... well you have others.

Call me Old-Fashioned, but is it ethical to ask others to 'Hold' DXNS when you have sold & state you would like to buy back in when the SP is lower??

Best known for Debeers diamond firm, long been seen as next M&A target for GLEN, that's why I'm in.
