I think PV need to take care with Debenhams,its not a business thats doing well..They may need to close stores in the future and we dont want that with PV in full flow.
Perhaps no bad thing to have low expectations at this stage..I would just add that ,if it has failed,it has failed for all ,not just PIs..and none more than TH with 11m shares in options and holdings..
I suspect VIP and chinese shopping have made us a target for the Chinese..but again just my own thaughts..An associate of mine who is invested with a Chinese partner had to wait nine months for his license...We know red tape and regulation there are not easy to navigate.
All views are welcome of course..My feeling has been that we are delayed by regulation and not negotiation,but that too is my speculation.Logic alone tells me that the process would not be continued if there was no prospect of a result..We are not managed by idiots who just pay out for nothing..I agree that this has and continues to take far too long though .
Nobody knows what the outcome is/will be .You are just making bored speculation,a **** in the wind prediction based on no information.Every party involved in the negotiations has an interest in it being a success..I remain positive.
I think if the result was available it would be RNSd without delay being an essential piece of price sensitive information.The chances that the review conclusion would coincide with results? But an interesting final week to April.
