Investor who paid homeless people to surveil government offices reveals how to get sources to tell you anything. PLUS: Why Warner Brothers will go to Paramount
PSKY secured US antitrust approval of its WBD bid. They wanted to get this key clearance first before bumping their formal $30 (and informal $31) bid. Now by Monday is the time for a few more bucks to secure a new deal, putting the ball back to NFLX's court for a bump. But this regulatory approval is a big move in PSKY's direction.
Here's the state of play: PSKY formally offered $30, informally offered $31, and WBD expects that they will offer $32. This probably ends in a PSKY-WBD deal or a NFLX bump. The bid-ask for PSKY-WBD is surmountable. PSKY has been flexible on non-price issues. They're close to their top on price but could end up $33-34. When interviewed, the market implied probability was 2:1 that NFLX would be the buyer. My view was that the true odds were the opposite -- 2:1 that PSKY would be the buyer. Today it is 1:1, but it will be a busy, perhaps decisive, week...
Thanks for the chat. I love Polymarket and am so excited that they're coming back to the US. Planning on participating at scale ASAP.
gracias polymarket excelente saludos
