It just seemed strange to me that they were prepared to accept a bid of 1.44 over a bid of 1.51+. Why are they so keen on AGL regardless of other bids? It must be asked.TheAbyss said:A day in the life of a QGC shareholder -
Earlier today - QGC - Reject US bid
Now - AGL revised offer bid is now $1.60 per share
Plus a tender buy back at $1.52 if you want it
Also they re affirmed their reserves upgrade from yesterday
QGC will look after its shareholders in my opinion.

It appears from the directors address at the EGM that this (abyss's previous post) is pretty much the case and it makes sense the way they put it.
Personally - I would rather keep a healthy stake in QGC cause I think they will produce the goods for some time to come and we shareholders will reap the benefits long into the future. If TCW took the lot - we would make a quick buck but miss out on the bigger future $$$ (IMHO). Of course we can still sell anytime if need be...

But it does put somewhat of a ceiling on the SP in the short term. (Not that this isn't a bad thing at the moment, because it wont drop much further than what it is at the moment for the same reasons.)
I see little point in being in QGC from here. Like I was saying above, I was concerned about this deal putting a cap on the share price, and it seems those concerns were well founded. AOE definitely has better growth prospects from here on. Focussing on massive farm in deals rather than blocking stakes, has allowed them to devote full energy to prospective areas, rather than concentrating more on mature fields.Dukey said:Yeah - my feeling is that there should be more up than down for QGC after the buyback is finished. I'm gonna wait until then and see what happens. At some stage I definitely want a piece of Arrow as well - wish I had them 6 months ago!! - I may well end up swapping some $$ out of QGC to diversify into AOE - but not just yet.
Though an important questions is... which one will grow fastest from here??
