   Danish media have speculated that Blackstone Group, a New York-based private equity firm is close to an agreement to buy LEGO family entertainment parks. The deal would be valued at about $461-468 million, according to sources close to the deal cited by the Wall Street Journal on Tuesday.

The key to this article is the word “speculated”. I’ve just read on our intranet that this rumor is not true. Apparently, we are still in negotiations with more than one party.

Just a short note... I am just reading the information based on wired services and other news outlets online. And yes the information is “speculated” not true information.
