I see France-listed electrical products distributor Rexel SA has this afternoon released a "denial" statement of La Lettre's story about takeover talks with private equity firm CVC Capital.
Oh look - the French media have finally decided to follow up little old Betaville's UNCOOKED and RARE Alerts about the Rexel takeover rumours circulating the European market.
There weren't too many deal stories in the British Sunday newspapers but Reuters dug out a decent scoop today about a takeover bid for Rexel, the France-listed distributor of electrical, heating and plumbing equipment.
