Corporations are unsentimental by nature, so there is no reason for the consumer to get sentimental about a corporation. $70 a share is a fair deal for Anheuser Busch. I am not sure what the new owners can do to “ruin” the Budweiser.
Once August Sr. passed and August III had a heart attack several years ago it has always been rumored that young August IV wanted out of St. Louis and the business. I would guess their BOD has been looking for a buyer for sometime. St. Louis last brewer.....Falstaff, Stag and now Budweiser.
..nicely put.
