The agreement in fact was announced Friday in Stock Exchange also closed if the title of Alfa Romeo began his run for several days driven by speculation. “It is an important alliance and the benefits, in business and financial level, are significant, as already, at least in part, priced from the market,” says Vincenzo Longo IG. “Traders expect that the start of this cooperation could, in the future, in an alliance more important, despite the terms of the agreement prescribe specific constraints (in the first year Vivendi will acquire additional Mediaset stocks, and in the second and third year will have a stake of more than 5% ed). “
