I would buy PDG Cazoo over valued

[clanger66] 17/12/2021 08:43

Stock has gone ex special dividend and ex capitalisation. From what I can gather you should get £5.68 per share special div paid on the 30th Dec and 0.5749 shares in Cazoo for each share you hold in DMGT settled some time in the first half of 2022.

Not 100% sure what is happening here but I fancy holding some Cazoo shares.
Ok they're US but imo a credible disruptor.
Will probably invest all the cash I receive in Cazoo.
My wife is horrified that she is losing her Daily Mail shares!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I think I will sell in the market this week as dollar priced Cazoo shares are of no interest to me.

[thaiger] 02/12/2021 19:25

Decided to sell today and move on!

[timgw] 02/12/2021 17:58

I assume there is no real alternative but to accept the current offer of sell before 13th for a smaller amount but less hassle/ Any opinions?

[thaiger] 02/12/2021 10:00

Offer 6% more but share price up under 2%, can some one sums up the final offer please!

The Sundsy Times reports a team from Boston Consultants Grp are working at DMGT's Office; rumour mill links a move to a smaller office as a reason as well as working from home.

It raises questions as to why cuts were not made earlier and, if it's OK for some DMGT staff to work from home, why campaign for all staff to return to the office?

Hi all, long DMGT 200 shares. does any know how I would hedge the CZOO holding effectively? I.e. sell short x shares ahead of the distribution? Thx in adv

[suetballs] 12/7/2021 16:28

Yep - what do Rothermere know that we don't?

The last time they pulled off a stunt like this with Euromoney Institutional taxpayers ended up being stuffed as the distribution got treated as an income receipt. DMGT and the Rothermere family didn't give a sh*t about private individual shareholders so BEWARE and check the small print if and when the offer documentation becomes available.

BBC reports DMGT/Rothermere bid would overcome the City bureaucratic procedures re bids, etc.

I thought Brexit was supposed to liberate us all from bureaucratic procedures?

[stutes] 12/7/2021 09:16

Today's news of a possible takeover of DMGT by the Rothermere family I find positive, in that, the controlling voting shareholder buys out the major value shareholders.

The important question is, how many gems (like Cazoo) are in the business?

[harry_david] 12/7/2021 08:50

It is a bit hard to see why a bid at this price will entice me to sell.

[stutes] 11/6/2021 18:25

The Guardian reports Rupert Murdoch has written down the value of The Sun to zero.; the value of DMGT's paper assets could now face a similar writedown?

[suetballs] 29/3/2021 07:32

cazoo only cost us £117m - wow.

Nice to see cazoo sponsoring the snooker - makes a change from the betting companies.

DMGT stake could be worth 1 billion.No wonder the shares took off ,as DMGT itself is only worth around 1.6 billion.

[suetballs] 19/2/2021 15:24

Ah - it's cazoo ipo speculation.

This stock is like an oil tanker.

The Google news was out days ago and didn't move the share price.

[harry_david] 19/2/2021 14:13

Google's new approach to paying for the news it previously pinched.
