Reading between lines, Wipeoff, I think you are feeling some regret at selling 50% of your holding and are searching for reasons to feel more comfortable with that. That would explain somewhat the over-the-top nature of your headline and the belligerent tone of your posts.

I'm not sure why you feel such an urgency to sell, 30c is just around the corner if there is no counter offer, but if you need the cash, take the discount again and just sell now.

In regards to MMKs stake in FMG, I believe they only hold about 5%, which would mean nothing to RIO but for MMK to hold 100% of the FMS tenament would definately mean something to RIO. I'm very surprised you cannot see the difference and the strategic impact MMK owning this (and the syneries created through their association with FMG) may have in the Pilberra.
