Carl Icahn is one of the most infamous corporate raiders of all time. He would casually make hostile bids to take over Fortune 100 and even Fortune 10 companies throughout the 80s and 90. Once he got his hands on these companies, he would gut them by eliminating everything that didn’t make a profit and selling off the remaining assets. This practice would absolutely destroy the company and the people who worked there, but for Icahn and his investors, this was quite lucrative and profitable. But, ever since the turn of the century, corporate raiding hasn’t been nearly as popular. In fact, corporate raiding has completely disappeared into oblivion aside from a few exceptions like Twitter. Icahn himself has taken a step back from raiding. In late 2012, for example, he purchased a 10% stake in Netflix but he never raised this to a controlling stake like he usually would. There have also been accusations recently that Icahn may have been running a Ponzi scheme with his investors in recent history. This video explains the rise and fall of prolific investor and corporate raider: Carl Icahn

Poor guy's net worth dropped to "just below $ 8B." Maybe I should buy him a coffee from my net worth of $100. 😂😂😂
Seriously 😂 “awwww… 8B? Mmm… bless.🥺🙏”
At least your net worth is positive
Imagine short-term stock traders calling anyobdy else a bottom feeder.
Hahaha, the irony
lol
@@LogicallyAnsweredHow come Jews are so good in managing their finances ?
Lol everyone is, when one profits another loses.
@@yomama8833 Poor economic literacy, people don't agree to trades if either side doesn't profit.
The reason why there are so many old executives like Ican is because money is more powerful than wanting to do stuff.
What I don't quite understand is how the companies buying from corporate raiders are stupid enough to buy a company that's driven down into the ground.
I imagine that a large chunk of the raider's profit is through ignorant investors who just see the stock's meteoric rise and want to buy the pump.
I was wondering about the company thing too. But it makes sense in a way. A barebones profit driven workforce, with a big patronage is a lucrative buy for a conglomerate. They get to have a company with a streamlined setup and a large number of clients. All they have to do is patch it up to sustain in its own umbrella. Maybe brand it as their own. Help them with the shared resources then absorb them. Good deal, wouldn't you say?
Buying a dying company gives you ownership of its brand, market share and things like patents and r&d.
Icahn? More like iCan buy any company I want.

More like iCan lose all my money

4:26 Graduated in 1957
This guy surely was a fast learner
LOL! Yeah he was born in 1936.
Yes! I was thinking the same thing!
I would have said Warner Bros Discovery deserves to be raided if I didn't think that was exactly what Zaslav was doing already
That man is the walking definition of "unethical".
Hahaha
President of my old bank taught me a long time ago, Theres nothing illegal about being unethical
As one with some experience in M&A, I'd say it's not unethical. You are looking at what haggling looks like in the financial market. In the worst case, it's just a lot of fuss for little economic value overall, though there can be winners and losers. In the best case, it unlocks potential and frees up capital for other ideas.
True

Be careful guys!!! Netflix going to put in for 20 years if you be sharing passwords!!!
Hahaha
20 years of what?

I wouldn't mind someone doing this sort of corporate raiding on corporations like Monsanto.
The list of Howard Hughes' TWA was a powerful loss to good and still affordable flight leading to bottom of the barrel and crammed people cargo planes. Loved the video
Disney is currently making bad financial decisions left and right, so it wouldn't be bad if someone bought it out (with the intention of fixing it instead of making a quick buck like Carl Ichon)
No one has money to buy it😅😅
@@mojsterfinanc apple does, and I'm sure currently Disney isn't as valuable as their nostalgia is. Apple already has a stake in Disney due to Steve jobs starting Pixar.
If apple's Chinese supply chain fails in any way, an acquisition of Disney would make Apple TV actually fairly competitive, possibly. Disney brought to you by Apple. All rides at the park could upload photos of you directly to your phone once you bought them. Huge infrastructure developments in the parks. Could be an interesting future intertwining.
Easiest money I ever made in my entire life was 5000$ from a a Disney advertising campaign in my minecraft server
What if Elon bought it? 😂
The production quality is great, but some portions are almost nauseating with how much movement and action is on the screen. The old style is good, this newer style is close to being better, so excited to see the work
you make very good videos with very logical takes, glad your channel is growing.
Thank you for your support man!

Can you also do a video of AMC being heavily shorted while Fail-To-Deliver is at a historical ATH for that stock alone? It is insane how a hedge fund can continue to short and sell while stock is not yet purchased, and the most criminally worst of all they refuse to legally buy back all those Fail-To-Deliver. At this point they ran out of plays and decided to just steal from retailers in plain sight while the SEC turns a blind eye.
Just had a Baader-Meinhof moment where I watched a recent dude perfect video where they make a basketball shot 856ft high from a building (The Strat) owned by Carl Icahn in Las Vegas.
Born 1946 and graduated from Princeton in 1957?
Am I crazy or did this guy get his Princeton university philosophy degree at 11 years old? Edit: Did a quick google search and he was born in 1936 not 46.
Great episode, thank you Harry!
Greetings,

Another issue answered logically !!! 🔥🔥
I love capitalism and markets but really loathe corporate raiders as they generally do not create voluntary term value.
Sounds like there bad for the people
Just remember Gecko was based on Icahn...
What is Gecko?

Arbitrage … pre-high frequency trading
i love Netflix as a Company but i probably wouldn't buy them out, But if i became a billionaire i am going to make a deal with Walt Disney to buy out Pixar Animation for like $10-13 Billion dollars.
Market capitalization of Netflix (NFLX)
Market cap: $162.19 Billion
As of May 2023 Netflix has a market cap of $162.19 Billion. This makes Netflix the world's 67th most valuable company
…??
Disney already owns Pixar Animation. I’m not sure what you’re talking about. Did you maybe mean like DreamWorks Animation or something else?
@@theseyi Disney Owns Pixar animation they bought it in 2006 for $7.4+ billion
January 2006
Disney purchased Pixar in January 2006 at a valuation of $7.4+ billion by converting each share of Pixar stock to 2.3 shares of Disney stock.
@@theseyi Source: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pixar#:~:text=Disney%20purchased%20Pixar%20in%20January,2.3%20shares%20of%20Disney%20stock.
Pixar started in 1979 as part of the Lucasfilm computer division. It was known as the Graphics Group before its spin-off as a corporation in 1986,
with funding from Apple co-founder Steve Jobs who became its majority shareholder.

@@WhiteGirlHeaven yes I know all this. I think the issue here is I misread your goal. You aren’t saying if you were Disney, you’d buy Pixar…you’re saying if you were a billionaire, you’d buy Pixar *FROM* Disney. Is this correct? If so, my apologies on misreading it. I agree with you, it would be a good idea indeed.
where do you get this high quality information for all your videos? Great.
All my resources are in the description:)
Here's what Wikipedia has to say about Carl Icahn
"Icahn was born in Brooklyn to an Ashkenazi Jewish family.[7][8] He was raised in the Far Rockaway, Queens neighborhood of New York City, where he attended Far Rockaway High School.[9] His father, Michael Icahn,[10] a "sworn atheist",[11][12] was a cantor, and later a substitute teacher. "
How interesting. I'm beginning to #Notice a pattern.
Every. Single. Time.
You and your team really step up the quality of the presentation. The video was enjoyable to watch and informative.
false
@@WhankFrite Go on, prove your credentials and state all the falacies in this video, otherwise you're just barking.
@@raceris7309 Well there's one: He said that Icahn was born in 1946 which is not true. It was 1936.
This is more like player got played in the end
I think meta should be raided 💀
Zuckerberg has supervising shares so...
The market cap is so ridiculously big that it's basically impossible.
What about Microsoft, Google, Apple and other big technology companies? Why target Meta alone?
Sorted directly to Slytherin without even touching the hat!
15:51 - "In the late 1900's..." Oh god. The fact that you're able to say that, factually.
Logically Answered with the great videos as always.
Thank you Philip!
Wtf!?, He was born in 1946, got his degree in philosophy from Princeton in 1957 (11 years old), and dropped out of medical to join the army in 1961 (15 years old). Tf is going on bro. What did you smoke???
just a mistake oh well
Born in 1947, and graduated in 1957?! xD
If you're so worried about who buys in to your company...maybe stay private?
It was so much sexier when Richard Gere did this in, “Pretty Woman.”
What book is he reading from at 1:30 which talks about the “poison pull” strategy. Any help would be amazing
Yeah someone should raid Tesla and Meta
from 2:36 I feel I heard this story somewhere recently, what no one else feels so...
hope he doesn't cancel my mars ticket for this
Gut video as always ❤
Thank you Celestine!
@@LogicallyAnsweredAre you a Jew ?
I really liked your video, very informative.
Ticket master! We need someone to take that over
The guy looks like a Stock image/video model lol
So you're telling me he was born in 1946 and was in college in 1957 your math don't add up get your numbers right
how is he born 1946 and graduate university 1957?
love all your videos, even if i have no idea about the subject lol
Hahaha, really appreciate that bro
I wish this video would came out a year ago. I could avoid so much loss on ican stocks…
I have one in mind, actually. Someone, please raid CZcams.
4:10 Wiki says it's 1936... or how could he graduate university by the age of 11 (1957)?
My bad
He was born in 1936 not 1946.
It didn't make sense, as you said he became a stock broker in 1961. If he was born in 1946, he would have only been 15
and graduated princeton when he was 11
On the merit of taking out Zuckerberg I would say meta but I would never want to see a huge portion of their employees without a job.
Degree in 11 years? As he was born in 1946 and graduated in 1957?
what he graduated at 11 from princeton?
I think 1946 is not the correct year of birth for Carl Icahn.
How do You do your thumbnails?
I can help u with that not sure if i can make like this
@@safhd6999 Lets do it
Well at least he followed through on something, lol.
You said the guy was born in 1946 and graduated university in 1957.... graduated at age 11?
Monsanto definitely deserves whatever garbage comes its way
You gotta save your assets!
Seto Kaiba?
😂😂😂🤣
This strategy should be illegal. It does absolutely nothing beneficial for anyone but the raider.
I speak of course of parasitic flips. If someone where to buy a company with the exoressed purpose of improving its long term prospects, that would be a different story.
You wanna see daily corporate raiding come to Vancouver TSXV
In the NETFLIX series about him he will be played by Morgan Freeman.
Spelling mistake at 2:37
Oops
I think Meta deserves to be raided.
What about other big technology companies like Apple, Google, Microsoft etc ?
Nope it's a great company
He got a degree at 11 years old?
Oops, meant to say that he was born in 1936, my bad
But poison pills 💊 also hurt small shareholders who went in on good faith. They get diluted too 😂pls raid citi Wells Fargo and Herbalife part 2 😅
So that what inspire gordon gekko
Misspelled companies as sompanies? 2:37
And "full proof" 1:38 lol. No way anybody is reviewing these before they get published. I wonder what kinda "research" goes into these videos.
4:11 Also said man’s was born in 1946 instead of 36 😭 so man graduated uni at age 11
I always loved him until he went against bill ackman. Not that I love ackman but I hate herbalife to the core. I've seen people getting stung by MLMs. Herbalife should have been gone under.
Adani is back with fire stock is on fire
2:37 look it says sompanies instead of companies
It's "fool proof plan" not full proof plan
WBD is the company that i want someone capable to raid 😅
Did I mishear something? Did you just say he was born in 1946 yet graduated from university in 1957???
so the title lied about him being wanted
Why did he sell Netflix
Such an ICAHNic move 😅
You missed Gordon Gekko
Nestle please
Everything is a ponzi scheme on some time frame, if you assume infinite growth forever isn't possible :D
BlackRock or Vanguard next please
4:16 Am I wrong or does this imply Icahn graduated Princeton at the age of 11?
nah he just got Icahn's birth year wrong
Even if these guys seem like a waste of oxygen they serve an important role in the finance world. Like in the animal kingdom some animals do nothing but harm yet they serve a purpose like population control etc.
He was born in 1936 *
He was an Icahn of his trade 😅
He was born in 1936, not 1946
Atleast he's wanted
Why is everyone transitioning to a magnetsnedia?
Did you really just say Icahn was born in 1946 and graduated from Princeton in 1957?
Calling it now Netflix is going to bomb…. Remember in 2014 I think they wanted to call the DVD part silver or something people got pissed off At just the name… now Who is really going to pay for what they’re giving nowadays let’s be fair
Savage
interesting man to say the least
Most click bait title I’ve ever seen. Mentioned Netflix a brief minute then went on making another Carl icahn. Blocking this account.
W vid man
yes wish，if you win there is 200 to 300 million cash
Carl Icahn was born in 1936, not 1946.
