Last Friday, the Financial Times reported that InBev SA, the giant Belgian brewer, is working on a $46-billion takeover bid for BUD.
The shares rose to a new all-time high of $58 shortly after the news hit the wires. So if you already own BUD stock, you might want to crack open a cold one and celebrate!
And even if you don’t yet own the stock, a $46-billion buyout implies an acquisition price of $65 a share. That represents another 14.8% gain from BUD’s closing price before the Memorial Day holiday. Should this deal end up happening, even new investors stand to reap plenty of profits.
Even near all-time highs, the stock is shelling out a dividend worth 2.5% a year. That’s more than most CDs and money markets are paying right now!
