If Bg's sp is 1153 when the deal is finalised and RDS is £21 for example you will get £3.83 cash and 0.4454 shell b shares which at a RDSB price of £21 would be worth £9.35 So total of £13.18

What do you mean 'I don't expect the deal" When the deal goes through there won't be a company called BG.

Thanks will look Closing price £11.53

Not sure about winnings - just starting to recover from some howlers really. I saw the 500k buy here last Thursday after hours for 4.295 million quid and did start to wonder ...... I took a £130 quid loss in Centrica last week and chucked that in here as well. I'd like to buy there but somethings stopping me atm

I am looking at RDS dip - however as I only want short terms jumps atm and it has already dipped recently to £20 anyway on low oil price I an slightly hesitating

Billy - possibly I just can't see it or think of a recent situation where an offer has been accepted and recommended by the bod and then not voted through? Can anyone else?

Based on shells b share price of £20.19 a few seconds ago the shares part of the deal is worth 8.99 + 383 in cash - £12.82

As all of the directors have pledged their holdings to this offer I can't see a counter offer ie its got the bods approval.

Notice shell B shares are down7.9% on the announcement Anyone able to figure out how much this brings the offer down to?

Might be tempted back in around 1050 or 1100 if we get there LP 1172

So if you sold today and bought back next week yes you'll still get the deal. Whats' not know is what the price will be next week ie if you will end up buying higher of lower than you sell today! Hope this makes sense!

Holders who hold the day BG is delisted get what shell offered this morning if the deal goes through. From what was on rns's this morning the deal has been agreed and should go through. The timescale is what is slightly fluid atm

Thats what I thought at 0800 this morning I'm sure the nosy government and wannabee government may want to use this politically.

Anyway someone (probably in the know) bought 500,000 of these close of doors Thurs - before the BH They paid 859 ish from memory Imagine how they're feeling today!

And if I wanted I could buy lower 12.46 live

Not really - if it was a cash offer I'd have held on but the cash proportion wasn't attractive to me!

Am out Sold at 12.92 down to 12.85 Got to be happy with that - might be an entry later on

Thanks Have put a limit sell on some at £13. Personally don't think we'll go that high because of the cash and shares mix but we'll see

Guess the bounce at just over £8 was the bounce then. I might have been correct then?? LOL

ps it was my Birthday yesterday... double bonus
