that's only limited by how you define the industry you're in. we'd have a lot more to worry about if no NPV positive opportunities existed at all (which would imply an exhaustion of relatively free raw inputs).
- s1artibartfast 7y ago>that's only limited by how you define the industry you're in. I have seen a lot of great companies acquired and destroyed by parent companies in another industry. It certainly can and is often done well, but is not trivial or risk free.
- clairity 7y agono doubt it's fraught with risk (including risks specific to diversifying or m&a), but all NPV-positive opportunities are at least a little risky by definition (no risk, no return). acquisitions in general are all too often vanity projects, rather than synergistic value creators they're purported to be.
