Anyone here feel that sgx should just walk away with ASX merger.....and find another partner............offer such a high premium and still need their approval......I see that as a bad move and hope sgx ceo can see that too...... |

And perhaps it's also possible
ASX can also marry with another partner?

Since the day the proposal was announced, this counter has been dropping  like sheet.
    Obviously from the share price itself,  one can see that the market
              is not in favour of it perhaps due to dilution, etc.
                      If this is the indeed the case, then this counter may
                          "
Cheong Aaaarrrhhh!!!" if the deal is KIV, or aborted...

Singapore Exchange’s ASX takeover
Singapore Exchange’s ASX takeover gets boost from Chi-X
Regulatory approval of Chi-X Global Inc. as a competitor to Australia’s main bourse operator may make it easier for Singapore Exchange Ltd. (SGX) to tackle political opposition to its bid for ASX Ltd. (ASX)
“Keeping the status quo is not an option” for Australia, Singapore Exchange Chief Executive Officer Magnus Bocker said in Sydney after the nation’s markets regulator gave the go-ahead yesterday to foreign owned Chi-X to start a rival exchange.
The Singapore bourse’s A$7.6 billion (US$7.7B) bid for ASX has been opposed by some lawmakers who say it is against the national interest.
Yesterday’s approval of Chi-X to become the 1st foreign owned stock exchange operator in Australia’s 150-yr trading history may ease lawmakers’ concerns about 1 foreign-owned company monopolizing trading in Australia. Introducing competition in the local exchange market is a key pillar of plans by the Labor Government led by Prime Minister Julia Gillard to help turn the country into a Global financial hub.
The Singapore Exchange, which runs the City’s securities and derivatives market, offered to buy ASX on October 25 in a cash and share deal then valued at A$8.4 billion, a 42% premium to ASX’s share price at the time.
The deal still requires the support of Australian Treasurer Wayne Swan, the Reserve Bank of Australia, ASIC and parliamentarians, several of whom have opposed the sale.—Paul A. Ebeling, Jnr. www.livetradingnews.com

* SGX offer for ASX already generous, says TSE chief exec
* Better SGX offer would mean big dilution, TSE warns
By Tim Kelly TOKYO, Feb 22 (Reuters) -
The Singapore Exchange should not raise its already generous offer to buy Australian bourse operator ASX because that would bring unnaceptable dilution for its shareholders, said the chief executive of the Tokyo Stock Exchange, which owns a 5 percent stake in the Singapore bourse. " The offer now looks big, and we can't be happy with the dilution if it is raised further," Atsushi Saito said at a regular news briefing at the TSE.
SGX faces pressure to sweeten its $7.9 billion offer for the rival Australian bourse to counter opposition to the deal from politicians and win regulatory approval, which requires an agreement to lift a 15 percent cap on foreign ownership. This week SGX agreed to allow ASX to have an equal number of directors in the merged company in an attempt to counter calls for the merger to be scrapped. Yet, under the agreement SGX will still own a 64 percent share after the merger. Giving ground on that ratio risks turning some shareholders such as the TSE, which up to now supported the union, into opponents of the merger, which if strong enough could scuttle the first major bid at consolidation by major Asia-Pacific exchanges.
That could leave Asia lagging as bourses in Europe and the United States move ahead with new alliances and mergers. Deutsche Boerse
revealed on Feb. 9 that it was in talks to buy NYSE Euronext
to create the world's largest trading powerhouse. On the same day, the London Stock Exchange
said it had agreed to buy Canadian market operator TMX
.

TOKYO, Feb 22 (Reuters) - The Singapore Exchange will have to offer a high premium in order to buy Australian bourse operator ASX , the chief executive of the Tokyo Stock Exchange, Atsushi Saito, said on Tuesday.
The Singapore Exchange, in which the TSE owns just under 5 percent, is attempting a $7.9 billion takeover of ASX.

Warrant of the day: SGX Call (M2RW)
SGX failed to clear crucial horizontal resistance at 8.73 in January. After some consolidation the stock dropped below the 50-day moving average and started another leg down. It is currently consolidating above the recent low at 8.21 near the important 200-day moving average.
The overall bias remains to the upside unless this key support fails to hold. The short-term technicals are neutral. It takes a break above the mid-term downtrend line currently near 8.54 to suggest a potential mid-term bottom. Clearing horizontal resistance at 8.73 would confirm resumption of the major uptrend targeting 9.24/9.28 initially. Violation of current support at 8.21 on the other hand would imply further downside risk towards 7.86/7.93.

There's no need to test anything at all... Not everyone is as smart as you.
          Most people simply follow habit and long-time conditioning...
                  For instance after a dog, or parrot etc, has been conditioned to do bark at certain things,
                        it will automatically always bark at those things without any second thought...
                                the same principle can also be applied to humans too,
                                      largely with the same results, except those with better brains...
