SAN FRANCISCO (MarketWatch) -- Coal miner Walter Energy Inc. (US:wlt) shares jumped as much as 7% in early trade Thursday amid British media reports that the company is a likely takeover target. Among those cited as possibly mounting a bid for the company are mining giant BHP Billiton Ltd. (US:bhp) and the Anglo-Swiss commodities powerhouse Glencore International (US:glncy). Shares of Birmingham, Ala.-based Walter Energy are down 53% over the past 12 months, hurt by a widespread sell-off in coals stocks. Most coal is thermal coal, however, used to fire power plants and under pressure from abundant natural gas supplies. Walter Energy specializes in high grade metallurgical coal, used primarily in steel production, and is considered a "pure play" stock. Walter Energy shares were last up 7% at $33.90, a one-month high, after gapping higher at the open.Sentiment: Strong Buy

Market gossips are speculating a three way battle could be developing for US coal company Walter Energy.
Anglo American, up 33p at 2614.5p has been linked with a possible bid in the past although nothing emerged. But with Walter's shares falling back since then, traders believe Anglo could have revived its interest. In its latest annual report out this week, Anglo's chairman Sir John Parker said:
"We...continue to examine M&A opportunities as one of our strategic priorities in driving value in core commodities."
There was also speculation that BHP Billiton, up 11p at £20.35, and also investment guru Warren Buffett could be taking a look at Walter. The US group's shares are currently up nearly 1% at $61.8, and traders believe any bidder would have to offer more than $100 to win the day.Sentiment: Buy
