Ann: MIN: Extension of Norwest Takeover Offer, page-27

yeh they did say they may extend in their last statement... so it was obvious what they were going to do. The fact they release on the last possible minute shows they are attempting to play a few psychological games with us.

It would seem more polite to just make the announcement at the regular time, and you know a fair offer. Instead a conglomerate continues to spit in the face of retail share holders. Good luck to you CE.
