What I don't quite understand is how the companies buying from corporate raiders are stupid enough to buy a company that's driven down into the ground.
I imagine that a large chunk of the raider's profit is through ignorant investors who just see the stock's meteoric rise and want to buy the pump. I was wondering about the company thing too. But it makes sense in a way. A barebones profit driven workforce, with a big patronage is a lucrative buy for a conglomerate. They get to have a company with a streamlined setup and a large number of clients. All they have to do is patch it up to sustain in its own umbrella. Maybe brand it as their own. Help them with the shared resources then absorb them. Good deal, wouldn't you say?
As one with some experience in M&A, I'd say it's not unethical. You are looking at what haggling looks like in the financial market. In the worst case, it's just a lot of fuss for little economic value overall, though there can be winners and losers. In the best case, it unlocks potential and frees up capital for other ideas.
Am I crazy or did this guy get his Princeton university philosophy degree at 11 years old? Edit: Did a quick google search and he was born in 1936 not 46.
Disney is currently making bad financial decisions left and right, so it wouldn't be bad if someone bought it out (with the intention of fixing it instead of making a quick buck like Carl Ichon)
@@mojsterfinanc apple does, and I'm sure currently Disney isn't as valuable as their nostalgia is. Apple already has a stake in Disney due to Steve jobs starting Pixar.
If apple's Chinese supply chain fails in any way, an acquisition of Disney would make Apple TV actually fairly competitive, possibly. Disney brought to you by Apple. All rides at the park could upload photos of you directly to your phone once you bought them. Huge infrastructure developments in the parks. Could be an interesting future intertwining.
Okay, the information given in the video was neat and informative, but... could you lighten up on all the moving and animated text? It's incredibly unpleasant and annoying.

Can you also do a video of AMC being heavily shorted while Fail-To-Deliver is at a historical ATH for that stock alone? It is insane how a hedge fund can continue to short and sell while stock is not yet purchased, and the most criminally worst of all they refuse to legally buy back all those Fail-To-Deliver.

Elon musk is not a corporate raider and calling him that shows a strange derangement syndrome. It's so weird how triggered people become by Elon musk. By your own definition in this video of corporate rating that is the exact opposite of what Elon musk has done with Twitter
