Sorry, I didn't make my point very well.
Inco paid about 1/4 of the expected value to buy Voisey's Bay ($17.4B value/ $4.5B price) knowing there was still a lot of work to do to get it. So the bid for the nickel in Eagles nest alone should be at least $1.29 USD/share (using the same value/price multiplier). That would get them just the nickel, nothing else - and they know it!
The current bids are insults. At this point, I have absolutely no respect for either Wyloo or BHP, they are both thieves and scoundrels - and they probably know that too!
How TD, Stifel and the BOD can honestly say $0.55 is "fair, from a financial viewpoint" is beyond me. Look at the comparisons, they aren't apples to apples, they are apples to rotten apple sauce and must have been done by an inexperienced co-op student or lower.
