McKinsey & Company Bain & Company Hiiii! I’ve been at my job for a year and a couple of months now & I’ve gotten rather bored because the work is repetitive, not challenging, and hasn’t really allowed me to learn or grow as much as I would’ve liked to. Given how I’m still paying a ton of money for my postgrad in Business Comms (that I haven’t really gotten the chance to use), I’ve been thinking of entering the world of consulting. Any word of advice? PwC McKinsey & Company Bain & Company Boston Consulting Group KPMG

It's pricing in the time value of money, risk of the acquisition being blocked, risk of financing falling through, risk of Elon being Elon
Didn’t they freeze trading? Not sure
No one has communicated how the value of Twitter will increase as a result of Musk. No growth on the horizon, no price increase.
Given his history of fluctuating stock prices with well, Twitter, idk that I’d want to ride Twitter until they go private.
Everyone is missing a HUGE detail. Takeovers or any M&A deal takes time. The larger the deal the bigger hoops you must jump through to get things approved too. For all we know, regulators could say no and the deal falls through. That 4% ish is the risk premium investors feel is justified for this procedure. Even if things go well, it could be a while for them to finalize the deal. that 4% doesn’t sound really enticing if the deal takes a year when you could get better returns elsewhere.
Never said that; conversely I actually thanked SC1 for the insight. I only pointed out that it’s possible to not know this crucial part of M&A while being in consulting. You’re the one that then followed up with “I’d argue that as a Strategy Manger…this should be in your wheelhouse” (I.e., you should know this) while not having any clue about what I do beyond my title 🫡

PM1 by what metric?
The risk that the deal doesn't go through. The market believes there is only a ~75% chance Musk actually fulfills his promise and buys twitter.
Risk Arbitrage can explain some of this if you want a piece of the puzzle.
Lol RIP OP
