surprise merger in stock pitch
hey guys - i've been working on my stock pitch for an interview at a hedge fund i have coming up. poured a lot of time into the pitch, but unfortunately, it was just announced that the company i was pitching is in potential merger talks, although a tender offer hasn't been submitted. i was pitching a BUY on the stock with about 30% upside and so far the stock is up about 20% from where it was before the announcement. i'm trying to decide if it makes sense to continue to pitch the stock and integrate a discussion about the potential merger, or if i should switch to another name for my pitch. the fund is a value-focused so my fear is pitching a stock where the value is potentially dried up. would appreciate any thoughts - thanks!
Just pitch it still, highlight the process you used and now you have validation of the valuation, to some extent. Although now you might get a hard time for being overly optimistic. They don't care about your actual picks, they have more senior guys allocated to that, but how you did it and the thought process you use is the important part.
