European Union clears Comcast's bid for Sky

The European Commission cleared Comcast's $30.7 billion bid for European pay-TV giant Sky PLC on Friday. The cable giant's offer tops the one made by 21st Century Fox, which holds a 39% stake in Sky and made a bid in 2016 for full ownership. Interestingly, Comcast is now in a bidding war with the Walt Disney Co. for some of Fox's entertainment assets, which include Fox's stake in Sky. The NBCUniversal owner made a $65 billion all-cash offer earlier this week, topping Disney's earlier offer of $52.4 billion in stock. Comcast shares are down 15.4% this year, while Disney is up 1.2% and Fox is up 28.9%. The S&P has increased by 3.6%.

Disney's stock surges to pace Dow gainers after Comcast's rival cash bid for Fox assets

Walt Disney Co.'s stock surged 2.6% in morning trade Thursday, to pace the Dow Jones Industrial Average's gainers. The rally comes after Comcast Corp. made $65 billion cash bid for some coveted 21st Century Fox Inc. assets, which was higher than Disney's $52 billion all stock deal announced in December. Analyst Daniel Ives at GBH Insights said for Disney to compete with Comcast's bid, it would not only have to raise the value of its bid, but also change it to all cash from stock. That would be better for Disney's investors, because a stock deal dilutes shareholder value.

U.S. stocks rise, shake off Fed-fueled wobble amid strong data, ECB update

U.S. stocks opened modestly higher on Thursday, after the European Central Bank left interest rates unchanged and provided clarity on the timeline for its bond-buying program. The Dow Jones Industrial Average rose 0.3% to 25,282. The S&P 500 added 0.3% to 2,783. The Nasdaq Composite Index was up 0.4% to 7,726. The ECB laid out plans to taper its program of monthly bond purchases later this year, aiming to bring them to a halt by the end of 2018. Separately, a read on retail sales was up 0.8% in May, stronger than expected, while jobless claims fell by 4,000 in the latest week. In company news, 21st Century Fox Inc. climbed 1.2% a day after Comcast Corp. offered to buy a big chunk of Fox's entertainment and international assets for $65 billion. On Wednesday, stocks ended at their lows of the session after the Federal Reserve signaled a slightly more aggressive plan to tighten monetary policy this year than had previously been projected.

Comcast offers $35 a share for 21st Century Fox assets

Comcast Corp. offered 21st Century Fox Inc. $35 a share in cash for assets that it had agreed to sell Walt Disney Co. , Comcast said late Wednesday. The offer is a 19% premium over Disney's offer and values Fox at $65 billion. "In light of yesterday's decision in the AT&T/Time Warner case, the limited time prior to your shareholders' meeting, and our strong continued interest, we are pleased to present a new, all-cash proposal that fully addresses the Board's stated concerns with our prior proposal," Comcast Chief Executive Brian Roberts wrote in a letter to Fox executives. Comcast said it will host a call with investors at 4:45 p.m. Eastern time Wednesday. Comcast stock is down 1% after-hours trading and closed up 0.2% to $32.32 during the regular session. Fox class B shares are up more than 1% in after hours trading after closing up 7.5% to $43.41 during the regular session. Comcast stock is down 19% this year, as the S&P 500 index has gained 4.2%.

Fox the 'clear winner' in AT&T-Time Warner ruling, analysts say

Analysts are declaring 21st Century Fox a "clear winner" following Tuesday's court decision to allow AT&T to acquire Time Warner . The ruling paves the way for a potential bidding war between Walt Disney Co. and Comcast Corp. as the Marvel owner and cable giant look to buy up some of Fox's most highly prized entertainment assets, including the Twentieth Century Fox TV and film studios, cable networks like FX and National Geographic Channel, a 39% stake in Sky PLC and a controlling stake in Hulu. Although Comcast is reportedly planning a $60 billion all-cash offer to compete against Disney's existing all-stock $52.4 billion bid, analysts at Jefferies think bids could reach as high as $80 billion, or $42.50 a share, and still maintain investment-grade credit ratings. Fox shares shot up 7.4% to a record high during trading on Wednesday. AT&T shares fell 4.5% and Time Warner shares increased by 3.15%.
