NASDAQ gives up on London
NASDAQ 放弃伦敦证交所 |
|
The London Stock Exchange rebuffed its takeover advances earlier this year, so NASDAQ announced this morning it's putting its 31 percent stake in LSE up for sale. It's got its eye on another exchange now, Ashley Milne-Tyte reports.
TEXT OF STORY
Scott Jagow: Today, NASDAQ put its entire stake in the London Stock Exchange up for sale. NASDAQ says the market is undervaluing its piece of the LSE, but as Ashley Milne-Tyte reports, there's a bit more to it than that.
Ashley Milne-Tyte: NASDAQ tried to take over the London Stock Exchange last year, but its offer was spurned. Regulations prevent it from making a new one until early 2008.
Georgetown University finance professor James Angel says meanwhile, the U.S. dollar has been sinking.
James Angel: They've been watching the price they would have to pay to take over the LSE to go up, up, up, while they have to wait, so it's a lot more expensive now for the NASDAQ to take over the LSE.
NASDAQ recently made an offer for Stockholm-based exchange operator OMX. Last week, Borse Dubai launched a competing bid. Sang Lee of the Aite Group says that's got NASDAQ examining its finances.
Sang Lee: They perhaps came to a conclusion that money's probably better spent on trying to consummate a deal that can be done as opposed to focusing on a deal that could have been done, but was never consummated.
NASDAQ's stake in the LSE is worth more than $1.5 billion.
