Agree Andres, I'm not sure in a circumstance where the past indiscretions of Hanlong's executives are back in the news that SDL can do anything other than do a proper assessment of the tenders, workshop the scenario's they present and then make a decision.
Any leaks (as has been the case historically) will be a very bad look and will only inform the market that nothing has changed.
In the past we have had the "things are great" leaks followed by the Hanlong catastrophe, so I suspect any leaking of information or selective announcements will only serve to make the market more nervous. Equally I can't think how any sort of announcement would assist in negotiations - I think it would only put participants off-side.
I may be wrong (regularly am) but I suspect nothing will be announced before a decision. When I spoke to Jill 10 days ago she mentioned that nothing would happen unless something leaked. I guess she said that because the Chinese are involved and its pretty easy to hear through a Chinese wall! LOL. Best of luck to all. Cheers GCA
