FTSE 100 movers: Takeover talk dominates
Tue, 7 Sep 2010, 14:55:00
Takeover rumours continue to dominate the Footsie. There is talk of engineer
Invensys
becoming the subject of a 350p a share bid from a larger rival, while there is thought to be Chinese interest in
Tullow Oil
with a £20 a share bid figure suggested. The bid rumour-mongers appear to have moved on from
Cable & Wireless Worldwide
, which has been hit by profit-taking.
Barclays
is lower after it was confirmed that Bob Diamond is going to take over as chief executive next year. He will succeed John Varley.
BAE Systems
is paying an initial $25m for US-based OASYS Technology. There could be further payments of up to $30m for the electro-optical systems manufacturer.
