Transaction Tuesday

Forget merger Monday, it's all about Transaction Tuesday. Indeed, there were four major deals announced in London this morning - they were:

1. Zurich considering a £5 billion plus takeover bid for RSA.

2. Melrose selling Elster Group to Honeywell for £3.3 billion.

3. Hikma Pharmaceuticals buying Boehringer's generic business for £1.6 billion.

4. GKN purchasing Fokker Technologies for £500 million.

And at the smaller end of the spectrum, dealmaking in financial media industry continues unabated with Reed Elsevier's Lexis Nexis gobbling up digital publisher MLex for between £20 million and £40 million.

Apart from the odd mega deal (e.g Shell/BG Group), the UK M&A scene has been pretty dull this year compared to the US market, which has been going gangbusters. But I reckon the City's dealmaking scene could very busy in the second half of this year...

      My life is back!!! After 10 years of Broken marriage, my husband left me and our two Kids . I felt like my life was about to end i almost committed suicide, i was emotionally down for a very long time. Thanks to a spell caster called Dr OKAYA who i meet online.

    After being in relationship with morgan for seven years,he broke up with me, I did everything possible to bring him back but all was in vain, I wanted him back so much because of the love I have for him, I begged him with everything, I made promises but he refused. I explained my problem to someone online and she suggested that I should rather contact a spell caster that could help me cast a spell to bring him back but I am the type that never believed in spell, I had no choice than to try it, I mailed the spell caster, and he told me there was no problem that everything will be okay before three days, that my ex will return to me before three days, he cast the spell and surprisingly in the second day, it was around 4pm. My ex called me, I was so surprised, I answered the call and all he said was that he was so sorry for everything that happened, that he wanted me to return to him, that he loves me so much. I was so happy and went to him, that was how we started living together happily again. Since then, I have made promise that anybody I know that have a relationship problem, I would be of help to such person by referring him or her to the only real and powerful spell caster who helped me with my own problem and who is different from all the fake ones out there. Anybody could need the help of the spell caster, his email: drbhabumenrespellhome@gmail.com you can email him if you need his assistance in your relationship or anything .I CAN NEVER STOP TALKING ABOUT YOU SIR HIS EMAIL: drbhabumenrespellhome@gmail.com
