two big trades today- this is big money!, page-12

Afex, SIP has been trading in such a tight range (except for the cliff drop), that there hasn't been enough in it to range trade, imo. Yeah, the stock will fall @ ex-dividend- noone buys into this one as a growth stock now, I don't think. A fully-franked dividend though, with a takeover premium, is massively attractive. If you bought in recently, you'd be pretty much even to your purchase price, so you'll get loads on top *if* it all goes according to plan.

Nice rises today, so far. If Lazard is out, and others want in, we might see some more of that- 4 days to go!
