"Elliott is disappointed that the takeover appears to have been approved against the wishes of so many independent shareholders"
This is classic.... "against the wishes of so many independent shareholders".. How many is "many"? Just them? Obviously not the majority however.
Elliot, go cry in the corner and let the adults do adult stuff. Don't forget your teddy bear.
And if the "all the options at it's disposal" include holding your breath until you turn blue.... feel free.
