ParticipantGo ahead and tell us the company. We are not insiders and we are allowed to trade on rumor and speculation.
Is Warren Buffet buying it?

ParticipantI don’t know your financial status but I can’t imagine that your purchase of a few thousand shares would catch anyone’s attention.
Also, the stock won’t go up more than a few percent.
Lets say it is trading at $25 per share. The buyout offer MIGHT be for 10-20% above the market (in order to intice enough people to tender their shares). It won’t double or triple. A profit of $4 per share on 2000 shares isn’t going to let you retire.
On the other hand, Martha Stewart went to jail for lying to the grand jury about trying to save a $49,000 loss (after acting on insider information).

ParticipantSo you committed loan fraud (gave a kickback of $20,000 to the buyer) to get a deal done. Good job. You should all be proud.

ParticipantYes, if someone is truly thinking about taking advantage then it is too soon. I think that Barratt and Home Depot have the brand name and the clout to make a difference in this case.
It is never too soon if the intentions are good. I imagine that several people have had sleepless nights over the past week wondering what to do next. If these companies can provide some level of help (peace of mind), they are providing a much needed service.

ParticipantHow is this a shameless act by Barratt? If you are working full-time, do you think that you are going to rebuild your home in your free time?
Barratt is a highly respected homebuilder with the staff and buying power to help people rebuild their homes. Yes, they have a profit motive but they are offering a needed service to people who will be overwhelmed by the process.
How many people on this website have any idea how to start the process of rebuilding? Which architect do you hire? Which fees will be owed to the City/County? What is the time frame for constuction? What will it cost to rebuild? Can I rebuild for the amount that I am getting from the insurance company?
