If they were buying for another party, surely:

a/ the bulk of the trades would appear as cross trades - this is not the case, and;

b/ Their substantial holding would not change.


I made a post the other day, as i was totally despondant with BBP. I made a comment that if there was going to be a takeover, that the potential purchasers should have already purchased DB's remaining shares.

The ANN today makes this scenario now possible.

It now looks like the potential purchaser has possibly contacted DB for them to act as a broker to aquire BBP shares at well below a potential takeover offer price.

Lets see what happens by the end of the month.
