I agree...


In general when companies are bought, there share prices rise, after all it means the other company thought they were a worthwhile company and now they will have loads of additional resources!
The reason Cadburies price rose so much after the Kraft bid was rejected was because further bids were rumoured to be coming in and it meant Cadburies percieved they were worth even more than that bid they said it 'fundamentally undervalued' them, hence - Demand for a company... If a company has demand from other companies, it must be good - So investors bought...
If the bids are dropped prices will fall and your short will work; But on the more-likely option that Cadbury is going to bought it; Prices will gap and stop price won't be hit (Unless its guranteed) hence, you are trading a very volatile market...

Additional bids MAY come in from Cadbury, gapping price up overnight and therefore its high risk...

Just in case you weren't sure of these elements upon entering your short!

I agree with you just thought that if Cadbury stay on there own which they have stated they can do there might not be a buy out or merger so the price could drop over the next 2 months. I got at stop at 800 and if its hits 810 then I'm in aggreement with you on a buy to 900+ if a bidding war starts.

This is me pre trading on a Demo account so I'm trying things out to get a way of me making a profit. I'm glad you stopped by this is exactly what I wanted to here other traders views.

I could of done a paper Trader Diary but it does not talk back lol :LOL:
