  1. And presumably since this is billed as a “merger of equals” with two companies that have broadly public ownership, no control premium for NYSE stockholders. That’s certainly what NYSE stock is saying right now (down 2%).

  2. One thing I can almost guarantee is that the perception of control shift among those who are involved in the deal differs from the public’s perception. All of the buzz that’s going around is probably dumbly uninformed compared to the thinking on the deal team. It usually happens that way.

    We don’t even know yet where the top level holdco after the merger will be incorporated.

    Though I can guarantee it will have a dual listing. 🙂
