Bin gesundheitlich immer noch etwas angeschlagen und werde daher auch diese Woche blogtechnisch etwas kürzertreten. Dieses Meisterstück von Daimler verdient aber zumindest ein paar Minuten Aufmrksamkeit und Häme. Schadenfreude kann selbst ich bei soviel Inkompetenz nicht mehr aufbringen. Leider hatte ich mit meiner Einschätzung ( siehe How Daimler Wasted € 7 Billion On Buybacks In Just 15 Months...... ) Recht und es bleibt zu befürchten das Leute wie Zetsche von den deutschen Medien für diesen "Schachzug" auch noch gefeiert werden ( siehe FT Deutschland , FAZ , Spiegel Experten loben Daimler für Abu-Dhabi-Deal).
Daimler Sells Aabar a 9.1% Stake for $2.7 Billion March 22 (Bloomberg) --
Daimler AG, the world’s second- largest maker of luxury cars, will sell 1.95 billion euros ($2.7 billion) of shares to Abu Dhabi’s Aabar Investments PJSC, raising cash as it grapples with the deepening global recession and gaining a long-term shareholder.
Aabar will buy 96.4 million new Daimler shares for 20.27 euros apiece, the Stuttgart, Germany-based automaker said in a statement today. The price equates to a 5 percent discount to Friday’s close of 21.34 euros.
