💥 Corporate Breakups Are Back — But Most Investors Will Get Them Wrong 💥

Wall Street is hyping breakups as the “easy catalyst” play.
But history tells a different story.

Remember Kraft Heinz? Branded as the perfect merger. Buffett’s blessing. Synergies everywhere. Instead, it turned into one of the biggest value traps of the decade.

✅ Breakups don’t automatically create value.
✅ Governance, structure, and ex*****on decide who wins.
✅ Most investors chase the story, not the signal.

I’ve spent 35 years studying these catalysts. The pattern is clear: the crowd piles into hype, the disciplined investor captures alpha.
