Is there a way to get Investment Funds to let go of stock? It seems there's a way to limit your bidding to below market value (using the Limited Price strategy) but I can't seem to find a way to bid higher than market value to get an Investment Fund to release some stock of yours that they purchased. |

If an investment fund has shares in a corp that you control, you can get them to sell by raising the PE. The easiest way to do this, though Treasurer uses a different method, is to lower production. Sales will fall and the PE will rise.
The Gamemaster never lets go, so give up hope of getting that back under your control. |

offer about 10% above market price for shares and they should sell. Dont buy too many in one go or price will jump. limited price set to market value + 10%. |

It used to be that investment funds bought when shares had a P/E between 30 and 70. That would also mean investment funds won't ever sell between the high and low numbers. I think the numbers have changed but I haven't looked into it.
Dropping production is one way to drop earnings (E). if you lower E then P/E will go up very high.
You can also move the corporation to one of your countries and raise salaries to obscene heights. Income taxes used to be 58%. Taxes will also cut into earnings. |
