    like what is decribed here: http://www.examiner.ie/pport/web/business/Full_Story/did-sgjYaPTw23D6Usgdq-nXlDAyFE.asp
    is this a positive or negative thing?
    It means that in the jounalist's / commentators opinion the price is currently overstated as investors are expecting it to be taken over. Price tend to increase in take-over bids, but this area is fraught with risks.

    For you, it means the price is too high for the return it is giving (dividends / share price increase / member discounts (if any) / etc.). It is a suggestion you might sell if you have them or not buy if you don't.
