Novacyt Potential Takeover


Recommended Posts

Hi All

 

Hoping for some help / advice, I have a spread bet long position (several) on Novacyt share and its doing reasonably well. There are rumours of a takeover or buyout at a far higher price than its at now.

 

Does anyone know what happens in the event of this happening?

 

For example if its 1000p a share now and the takeover is 2000p I assume I would get the 2000p value and effectively double my profit? Conversely if it was 500p I would be down 50%.

 

Much appreciated for help in advance.

You never normally get a takeover approach for less than the current share price as the idea is to get shareholders to vote it through 

The share price normally goes to within a few % of the takeover offer so you can sell them there and then or hold out for the takeover price which might come 3 or 4 months down the line whereby your shares are sold and your account credited automatically

    • WD Gann Said over 100 years ago "When TIME & PRICE BALANCE, the trend HAS to change" . Yes, there is a definite maths relationship, Via Gann or Elliot-waves. The pity is I cannot get Gann Angles on IG as they are not properly defined as per Gann, and do NOT REMAIN FIXED AT THOSE ANGLES WHEN YOU CHANGE TO ANY TIMEFRAME!!!!!!!! Even the Gann fan angles, used by all brokers, are a joke. These angles are not set arbitrarily as the system allows, and no means to measure angles!!!!

    • After a poor finish to last week, Asian markets mostly traded in negative fashion on Monday, though some bargain-hunting in the Nikkei lifted that index off its lows. With major central bank decisions out of the way for the time being, the focus now shifts to the possibility of a government shutdown in the US. House Republicans are making efforts to consider stopgap funding measures to stave off a shutdown. Today's major events include the German IFO index, plus testimony to eurozone lawmakers by ECB president Christine Lagarde.
