Carl Icahn’s Netflix Wager With His Son: What Might Junior Win (or Lose)?

jeudi 24 octobre 2013

FILE - In this March 16, 2010 file photo, financier Carl Icahn poses for photos upon arriving for the 32nd annual New York City Police Foundation Gala in New York. Icahn has told Apple CEO Tim Cook that the iPhone and iPad maker should launch a $150 billion stock buyback immediately and disclosed that he now owns 4.7 million shares in the company. In a letter to Cook posted online on Thursday, Oct. 24, 2013, Icahn said he has increased his stake in Apple by 22 percent from 3.9 million at the end of September. At Apple’s current stock price, that’s worth about $2.5 billion and amounts to less than a 1 percent stake in the company. He plans to increase his stake. Icahn wants Apple to launch the buyback at its current stock price, which closed at close to $525 on Wednesday when the letter was sent. He stressed that he does not plan to tender any of his shares in the buyback he is proposing. (AP Photo/Henny Ray Abrams, File) Investing legend Carl Icahn, with an estimated personal net worth of $20 billion, and his son Brett struck a highly unusual wager over the sale of nearly $1 billion of Netflix shares, with tens of millions of dollars potentially on the line for both sides.
