Straits Resources Limited has issued the following announcement today:
"Straits Resources Limited requests a trading halt on its securities [on the Australian Stock Exchange] for 48 hours, pending the making of an announcement in relation to the PTT transaction, from 8.00am WST 28 April 2009.
"The announcement in relation to the PTT transaction will end the trading halt.
"Straits is not aware of any reason why the trading halt should not be granted."
Straits Resources Limited owns a 47.1% interest in the shares of Straits Asia Resources Limited. The PTT transation referred to involves the transfer of control of that shareholding interest. The request by Straits Asia Resources Limited for suspension of its shares is therefore "pending an announcement".
不知道是好事还是坏事。
