AFP, Beijing
ArcelorMittal, the world s biggest steel maker, is eyeing a stake in China's Angang Steel in its latest foray into the enormous Chinese market, the Financial Times said Monday.
Lakshmi Mittal, the Indian billionaire and chief executive of ArcelorMittal, proposed buying a near 25-percent stake in Angang in a private meeting with Angang's chairman Zhang Xiaogang two months ago, the newspaper reported.
The deal could be worth at least five billion dollars according to Angang's current market valuation, although financial terms were not discussed, it said.
"I had an informal discussion with Mr Zhang about various possibilities. As part of this, I tossed around a number of ideas," the London-based newspaper quoted Mittal as saying.
Yahoo shares tumble in premarket trading with Microsoft out
AP, San Francisco
Shares ofYahoo fell 22 percent in premarket trading as hopes for the once dominant search engine dimmed on the withdrawal of a $43.7 billion bid from Microsoft Corp, over the weekend.
Yahoo Inc. Chief Executive Jerry Yang is convinced that the company he started in a Silicon Valley trailer 14 years ago was worth more than the money Microsoft Corp, had offered for the Internet pioneer.
Now he may only have a few months to convince Wall Street that his rebuff of Microsoft's takeover bid was a smart move and if he can't, analysts won't be surprised if Yang is either replaced as CEO or forced to consider accepting a lower offer if Microsoft comes knocking at his door again.
"This squarely puts the pressure on Jerry Yang to deliver results and shareholder value," Standard & Poor's equity analyst Scott Kessler said. "You are going to see a lot of shareholders just throwing in the towel because they are going to realize it's going to take awhile for the stock to get back to where it was Friday.”
