Potash’s Doyle ‘Waiting for Godot’ to Trump BHP Offer

Potash Corp. of Saskatchewan Inc. Chief Executive Officer Bill Doyle urged patience for investors expecting an alternative to BHP Billiton Ltd.’s $40 billion bid, two months after starting talks with potential suitors.

“I laugh when I see people presume or assume a certain outcome,” Doyle said in a telephone interview yesterday from Potash Corp.’s offices in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan. “I just say, ‘Please be patient.’” He declined to elaborate.
