From the business news pages, something quite surprising;
to me, anyway. The Hong Kong Stock Exchange is launching
a bid to acquire the London Stock Exchange, at 20% up from
current market share of prices. This bid is considered to have
a 'remote' chance of success, especially so since it would have
to clear government review, but it does tell us where the money
is. Surprising!

This all the while student protestors are asking that Donald Trump
'liberate' the island!?
