I have to admit I relished reading the stock market report in the The Times today as it was written by the deputy city editor, Simon English. Here is a link:

Zurich smoked out - part 2
Bryce Elder's comments about Zurich's takeover of RSA aired on FT Alphaville's markets live this morning made me chuckle - he really is a witty writer (well, much more amusing than me, at least).
One thing, though, Bryce hasn't touched upon, yet, is Dunbar and whether the RSA board has taken a hard look at Zurich's former banking arm in the UK.

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.

Zurich smoked out
Great to see old school stock market reporting (with a new school digital twist) from Bryce Elder at the Financial Times smoke out a FTSE 100 takeover bid. Surely it's time for a pay rise, Ed.
In case you weren't aware how this played out, here is a link to Bryce's market report:
