The Christmas New Year breaks are now over, and normal business resumes on Monday. A decision from Xstrata could happen this week.
My feeling as I have often said is that Xstrata will agree to the 51%, and then move into negotiations for the full 100%. But at this point, other parties could enter the game to compete for the remaining 49%.
Hyper activity could be possible.
However, on the other hand I could be completely wrong.
