when the sale takes place.....

and there's nothing more certain than that, what happens when 'the Govt' releases all those shares????? won't it be a bit like a company's being in escrow then getting released - it's a humungous number of shares to release, so there'll be plenty to go around, but I suppose most will go to institutional investors? anyway, interesting to consider what the share price will do when the sale takes place. So far it appears to me that so far TLS share price has been utterly unmoved by the prospect of the sale of Telstra - which I find a bit puzzling given the market's usual habit of pricing in events before they happen. I'd be really surprised if TLS sp didn't move when the sale takes place, I'm trying to work out what the sale effect might be. Anyone have any thoughts on the effect of the sale on TLS sp?
