US-based Woodward has finally released a statement regarding the Wall Street Journal's "scoop" (Betaville seems to remember reading a very similar story on FT Alphaville the day before the venerable American paper published) about Boeing being in takeover talks to buy the aircraft parts maker. I have pasted the Woodward statement below:..
The Wall Street Journal reports that Crispin's letter to investors show his flagship long/short European Fund is down 10pc for July. Below is the link the WSJ piece:

The dynamic Danas over at the venerable Wall Street journal dug out a cracking scoop late yesterday about Sweden's Hexagon AB weighing a $20 billion sale of the business. Here is the link in case you missed it:

Take a bow M&A hacks over at the venerable Wall Street Journal.
Late last night the two Danas published a tale about London-listed Reckitt Benckiser is in talks to buy US baby food company Mead Johnson for over $16 billion and today the FTSE 100 company has confirmed the WSJ's mega scoop. (see the link below)..
Hilarious (or ridiculous, perhaps) - the Financial Times is now reporting little old Betaville's AIG/Ascot scoop but attributing the tale as "first reported" by the Wall Street Journal. Here is the link:
