Insurance-focused conglomerate Fairfax Financial on Monday agreed to buy retailer Sleep Country Canada Holdings in a deal valued at C$1.7 billion ($1.24 billion).
The offer price of C$35 per share represents a 28 per cent premium to Sleep Country stock’s last close. The company’s shares have risen 6.5 per cent so far this year as of Friday
This is great news for the shareholders and very depressing news for the short sellers.
The Short Sellers are in a world of pain , which serves them right for betting against a great Canadian company.
