CF gave an indication why Yara is buying TRA. They are quite bullish about the future as they announced earnings this morning (
UPDATE - CF net, sales drop, sees strong spring; shares up). I am not sure how to benchmark a fair price for CF given the TRA purchase. Last I looked AGU was offering about $109 for CF... perhaps $120? TRA did go for a 25% premium... that would be almost $130.
Speaking of buyouts, I saw another interesting one today... not MFI related, but one could have made a pretty penny. Simon Properties (owner of your local mall) is buying General Growth Properties (which I thought was bankrupt) for $6 a share, plus ownership in SPG. Check out their one year chart:
| GEN GROWTH PROP INC (PNK) |  |
About 50 cents a share a year ago... now over $12.
Here are my current holdings, I haven't updated in a while, I am 21% in cash. I may buy ARRS this week...
