RE: 11RNS maybe more before close.1 Mar 2024 18:22
I know Chinese very well, they will never pay the fair price for anything, very stubborn when negotiating. They were in discussions with Currys from last year as reported by BBC and I guess were dragging their feet hence the Elliot offer to out them. If JD don't offer, there is chance for this could go private. Makes sense as a strategy, specially when JD missed on buying German retailor, if Currys also goes, they will loose the battle with Alibaba and Temu. Having said that, I don't expect anything over 80p, the final offer could be around 77p.
