Santos surges after takeover bid
TROUBLED energy giant Santos has rejected a $7.1b takeover bid from overseas fund manager Scepter Partners as too cheap.
SANTOS shares have surged after the embattled energy giant revealed it has rejected a $7.1 billion takeover bid.
THE offer is the first firm proposal Santos has disclosed after announcing a strategic review in August, effectively putting its assets on the block to cut $8.8 billion in debt.
