Google share sale to raise $2bn
Google is set to join the elite group of firms on the S&P index
Google has unveiled plans to raise up to $2bn (£1.15bn) through the sale of a further 5.3 million shares.
The California-based internet search firm outlined its plans in a filing to the US Securities Commission.
The news also coincided with Google finalising the details of its $1bn strategic alliance with Time Warner's AOL unit.

What the HELL ar they up to with their further floatation. WHY do they need this extra money? They are going on a shopping spree by the looks of it.

But this also suggests they don't quite know how to plan, why do you need to keep raising money every few months if you have a good strategic planning in place?

Temi, that was my point, they DON'T need to raise money, they are amazingly cash rich. To me this says one of two things,
1. they are going on a shopping spree and have expensive aquisition plans in mind
2. they know something we don't about the marketplace and are cashing in while the stocks are high.
