Activist ValueAct spots an overlooked opportunity at Liberty Live Group. How the move might pay off
1. Activist ValueAct takes a 5.51% stake, underlining market undervaluation. This reflects confidence in undervalued tracking stocks. 2. DOJ lawsuit on Live Nation-Ticketmaster sparks an 8% drop, seen as a buying opportunity. This event creates temporary market dislocation. 3. Tracking stock discounts and planned spinoff hint at potential revaluation. Historical patterns with Sirius and Adobe show similar catalysts. 4. Aggressive capex for venue expansion raises short-term concerns but promises long-term growth. Structural investments could pay off over time.
