Hold tight or sell with pending takeover?

From today's price, $5.50 is in play. As a shareholder, you have to decide if it's worth holding onto your shares to get your $95 per share. There is a chance that the FTC is successful in challenging the US court order, in which case you'd want to exit now. He'd probably take his money and go, as there's a lot to be said for certainty.

PARTIAL BUY

The US regulator permitted the Microsoft deal, but the UK regulator still has to decide. He added ATVi shares today.

COMMENT
UK blocks Microsoft's takeover

MSFT will likely appeal and likely lose. The deal is probably dead. Also, the EU will weigh in. There's a $3 billion break-up fee for MSFT to pay ATVI.

BUY

The UK news wasn't a surprise. Remains undervalued even without the Microsoft deal.

BUY
Microsoft is trying to buy this, assuming the FTC allows this deal to happen. MSFT is paying $95 an ATVI share, bit ATVI shares are at $76. He doesn't feel the deal will be passed. If so, ATVI shares will go down, then rise again. So, you can buy this.

DON'T BUY
Among the biggest losers on the S&P in 2021 #4, down 28%. Tricky. It could be considered a Covid, Peloton-like stock, but the other videogame companies haven't been hit as hard. Maybe it's due to ATVI delaying several new games. The elephant in the room, though is the CEO, facing a serious corporate culture viewed by Wall Street as frat boy.

BUY ON WEAKNESS
Getting more compelling at these levels. Has stumbled with harassment lawsuits. Have a solid pipeline of franchises. Working on deepening the engagement of users. Beat on Q2. This name is trading at 18x 2022 with 11% compounding growth rate. Not cheap enough yet. Buy in the low $70s.

PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Sep 21/20, Down 3%) Got out, then bought back in around $80. Buy in tranches of $72, 65, and 57. Negative press releases dragged on the stock. Need some distance from those. Fundamentals remain strong. Build a position here in stages.
computer software / processing
BUY
Price target of $97.75, still a decent runway ahead. Litigation drove the stock down. Just reported, with great results on top and bottom lines. Litigation is still there, but firing on all cylinders. Demand is very strong.

Allan Tong’s Discover Picks The sexual harassment suit contains allegations that have yet to be tested in court, however, the Warcraft debacle is fact. If you’re an ESG| investor, then ATVI is toxic. If you’re not, then these recent headlines raise red flags about how Activision is run and raise doubts about the company’s future performance. The Warcraft III report alone is troubling, enough to avoid this stock. Another point to consider is ATVI’s chart. Even before either bombshell landed, ATVI shares had been tumbling for a month while other tech stocks and the Nasdaq had been touching new highs. It also didn’t help that investors consider video game stocks as pandemic plays. I disagree with this; people will continue to play video games regardless of Covid. Read The Disney Stock (DIS) is coming back, Blizzard Stock is a Sell (ATVI) and the new BARK Stock as a speculative buy. for our full analysis.

Makes up 27% of the caller's portfolio He doesn't know about veracity of the sexual harassment accusation and their alleged "frat boy culture" (the state of California has launched a suit this week), but all the video game companies are viewed as pandemic plays. Wait two more quarters. However, if you hold 27% of your portfolio in ATVI, trim it to 15%. ATVI is well run.
