Agreed cash bid by Silver Lake Management for ZPG (LON:ZPG) (the property agent formerly known as Zoopla) @ 490p per share announced this morning. 31% acceptances (including largest DMGT holding of 29%) already committed, so well advanced but not yet in the bag.

C.30% premium on share price already up 10% or so in the last couple of weeks. Interesting punt given the cloud (for some) over the estate agent sector.

No position held.
