If I am putting in a sizable offer for a company. One that I know would bring up there share price substantially. there share price is sitting at .40, would I not be buying the shares like crazy to make a whack of dough.

Since I would not know if I was going to win the bid or not does that make it illegal to buy the shares because I may be an insider soon.

If the answer is no, why aren't more peoople buying this stock. If I know it's going up I would be an idiot not to buy it.

Can somebody set me straight.

I have heard Bell & Telus or Niagara Networks, Shaw cable. This is only in the last couple of days.

Somebody must be interested in buying this companies stock.

I have worked at companies where the companies were being bought out before and employees knew something was coming everytime. they may not be 100% sure what but they always knew something was near. People have big mouths. No one at these companies have big mouths?
