Dan Loeb's Third Point is out with its first quarter letter. In it, they talk about how hedge funds have seen a lot of carnage as of late.
Specifically, they see the decimation in merger arbitrage land as an opportunity, writing, "many of these combined businesses should compound in value thanks to the benefit of synergies, modest financial leverage, and strong or improved management teams that have a history of successful capital allocation."
Their letter outlines their thesis on the following plays:
- Dow / DuPont
- ABInBev / SAB Miller / Molson Coors
- Time Warner Cable / Charter Communications
- Chubb / ACE
- Danaher
Embedded below is Third Point's Q1 letter:
