Part of what I was trying to say is that while there are regulations making it unlawful to acquire more than 20% of the shares in a listed company unless such acquisition is followed by a takeover offer, people can and often do exceed the 20% without making a takeover offer. In such circumstances, ASIC will become involved and if no takeover offer is forthcoming will normally require the party owning more than 20% to sell the excess shares in short time. People can, and often do that which is prohibited by regulation.

Hi W27, my first post you responded to was badly worded, so I have asked for it to be removed.

Anyway, my understanding is they can’t legally buy above 20% until after they have made a takeover offer, I don’t think a company like MIN is going to breach it. Pretty sure they will know exactly how many shares they can buy to get to 20%.

Anyway, we wait and see what next week brings.Just a current blocking stake or are they going to move straight away to T/O?
