Article Summary

HOLD
  • MGM Resorts International (NYSE: MGM) received a major takeover offer from Barry Diller's People Inc., which owns 26% of MGM Resorts International, with shares rising more than 15% in Monday morning trading.
  • The offer follows Diller's letter to shareholders five weeks ago calling MGM Resorts stock wildly undervalued, and follows last week's $18 billion Caesars Entertainment (NASDAQ: CZR) acquisition.
  • Diller began accumulating MGM shares during the COVID-19 pandemic, when the company was hit hard by closures and travel restrictions, and has maintained a long-term interest in the company.
  • The move marks the latest in a series of major takeovers in the casino sector, following Tilman Fertittaâ€Caesars's $20 billion acquisition of American International Group.
