LSE shares?

Question

Is it worth buying the shares of london stock exchange..They do pay good dividends ..but if it is taken over by nasdaq in the future then will this incur a loss for me as a LSE shareholder

Answer 1

It is worth buying shares of the LSE because the parties negotiating a take-over are persistent. However, there are moments when greed goes too far. If the potential buyer is offering around X and won't go above 2X and your shares are selling at 3X, you are about to be hosed. Consult the offers and ask yourself, would this be worth it to me if the buy-out offers were withdrawn? Frankly, I would leave it alone right now, but I'm not you.
