UNCOOKED ALERT: Gain Capital said to ... - Part 4

I know this is starting to sound a bit hackneyed but: another day, another confirmation for little old Betaville.

You might recall that this website published a series of Betaville Intelligence articles about Gain Capital, owner of Michael Spencer's spread betting firm City Index, and then revealed INTL FCStone was the mystery suitor circling the business. Below are the links, including a follow up in Mail on Sunday's business section.

And today INTL FCStone announced a $236 million takeover of Gain Capital. Below is a link to the press release:

Hopefully, that will prove the doubters - who for some reason never go away - wrong!..
