This is also being discussed on the European LF Bloodbath topic on this page.
It was discussed briefly a few minutes ago on the BBC 2 lunchtime business programme, 'Working Lunch'.
Financial analyst Alpesh Patel told the programme that he regards easyJet more of a rumour subject than a bid target. He said that such rumours obviously do easy's share price no harm which would not displease the likes of Stelios with his still very substantial holding (this assumes that Stelios definitely is not planning to try to take the company private).
