Berkshire buying Taylor Morrison at a fat premium — grab the deal spread
Berkshire Hathaway just announced it's buying home builder Taylor Morrison for $72.50 per share in cash — about 24% above Friday's closing price. It's the first big deal under Berkshire's new CEO Greg Abel.
Idea
When a cash buyout is announced, the target stock usually jumps but rarely hits the full offer price right away — that gap is your opportunity. Berkshire Hathaway is one of the most creditworthy buyers on the planet, so the risk of the deal falling apart is very low. If TMHC is trading below $72.50, you essentially get paid to wait for the deal to close. It's a classic 'collect the difference' trade with limited downside if you manage your stop.
