    Looks like it :

    2.3m sold and still, 29.77m potential shares to go with UBS.

    http://nzx-prod-s7fsd7f98s.s3-websit...908/319918.pdf

    Mitsubishi UFJ - 9.89m shares to go.

    One of those arbitrage deals gone wrong but they are big boys and in the backwash of stocks out there taking 40% to 75% hammering, will get lost in the rounding differences.

    I dunno, surely losing a few dollars a share on a few million shares sucks bigtime in most peoples language.
    For clarity, nothing I say is advice....

    Not their money - and these fund managers look after tens of billions of dollars.

    The takeover is officially off folks.
    Metlife a bit naughty they tried to claim it 'has to go ahead' all this time.
