You've been reading far too many comics. So what if the Chinks drop a bid just before their month is up? Does that change anything at all in how the other potential suitors can respond? of course not. It's not signed, sealed, agreed and passed on Boxing Day you absolute muppet.
I see the Chinks coming back much sooner with a more sensible attempt to secure a full sale, but they will be mindful it can and probably will run away from them now. Their underhand tactics of shorting the stock, scooping a cheap majority stake and thinking that gave them the right to acquire the business for a song has been masterfully rebuffed by the board.
They now look weak and stupid and must act swiftly and decisively to recover their reputation.
