Quite likely others will up the offer and it will still be a bargain for them. The last 10 or so trading days volume of shares traded has been unusually high which tells me a better offer is more than likely.
I'm sitting tight. The offer is way too low.. and we lose nearly a year of revaluations. I also see no reason there is big volume at close to $7. I understand the selling side but the buy side is the interesting part of all this

Nearly $50m of shares changed hands already today and I doubt the buyers are chasing it so hard with the prospect of making just 11 cents over 4 months

Summerset would be distracted and lose focus on their own development plans (which some would say they are currently struggling with) which would not be good.
I’m sure if SUM acquiring MET is such a good thing it would have happened by now anyway
If it was indeed such a great thing and it happened then the next logical step is Ryman acquiring the Summet outfit with 1 for 2 script offer ..now that would be fun.
For a punter in for a quick buck rather than thinking 5/10 years out SUM making a decent offer would be good news.

I’ve bought back the ones I sold ...that’s not why the volume is so high today
Got to be in to win

SUM's CFO a very bright guy. I would back him and Julian to make a bloody good go out of MET's assets...really not that hard at all to make a better go of them than Sowry and co

You should and deserve to get $8 plus for your shares in my opinion.

Slightly more cunning to the folks sitting on their shares not selling any in the first place imo.

The board are muppets taking less than current NTA. Even an interim dividend reduces the $7 scheme price so earnings for the last 11 months goes for free as well.
Large shareholders had to put pressure on them for them to see that starting a share buy-back in the low $4 range was a good idea when their NTA was about $7.
Pathetic.
