Netflix eyeballing Lionsgate — play the takeover premium before a deal drops
Netflix is reportedly in talks to buy Lionsgate, causing Lionsgate's stock to jump on the takeover speculation.
Idea
When takeover rumors hit, the target company's stock often keeps rising as the market prices in the likelihood of a deal and a potential bidding war. Lionsgate owns valuable franchises (like John Wick and The Hunger Games) that would be highly attractive to Netflix. The trade here is to capture the premium that acquirers typically pay to buy a company.
