Barry Diller's $12.4 billion MGM takeover bid — ride the deal premium on casino stocks
Billionaire Barry Diller's company just made a $12.4 billion all-cash offer to buy MGM Resorts, betting that Las Vegas tourism is on the rebound after a rough stretch.
Idea
When a well-known billionaire makes an all-cash takeover offer, the target's stock usually climbs toward the offer price as the deal progresses. MGM shareholders haven't fully priced in the premium yet, and analysts are saying Vegas fundamentals are improving on top of the bid. If competing bidders emerge, the price could go even higher. Casino peers like Las Vegas Sands and Wynn could also catch a lift as investors speculate they might become the next targets in a sector suddenly in play.
