Liberty Global plc (&quot;Liberty Global&quot;) (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LBTYA#NASDAQ">LBTYA</a>, LBTYB and LBTYK)))) announces that, through its wholly-owned subsidiary Liberty Global Belgium Holding B.V., (&quot;Liberty Global Belgium Holding&quot;), it intends to launch a voluntary and conditional public takeover bid for all the shares of Telenet Group Holding NV (&quot;Telenet&quot;) that it does not already own or that are not held by Telenet (the &quot;Intended Offer&quot;). Liberty Global has been the controlling shareholder of Telenet since February 2007 and currently owns&nbsp;59.18%&nbsp;of Telenet&#39;s outstanding issued share capital. Telenet owns&nbsp;3.12%&nbsp;of the outstanding issued share capital in treasury.
The Intended Offer would be an offer in cash at a price of EUR 22.00 per share. This price represents a premium of&nbsp;59%&nbsp;compared to the closing price of Telenet on March 15, 2023, and a premium of&nbsp;52%&nbsp;compared to the volume-weighted average trading price of Telenet over one month before such date.
Telenet&#39;s board of directors, subject to customary conditions, unanimously supports and recommends the Intended Offer as confirmed in the statement Telenet has issued today. The Telenet board of directors will provide its formal opinion in a response memorandum which it will issue in accordance with the applicable legal framework.
If Telenet&#39;s ordinary general meeting on 26 April 2023 approves the payment of a gross dividend of EUR 1.00 per share as proposed by Telenet&#39;s board of directors and the ex-dividend date (3 May 2023) falls prior to the date of payment of the offer price, the offer price per share will be reduced by the total gross amount of such dividend (before any applicable tax deduction).
Mike Fries, CEO, Liberty Global, commented: &quot;We believe an offer of EUR 22.00 per share provides a good opportunity for Telenet shareholders to monetize their investment at an attractive premium. We welcome the unanimous decision of Telenet&#39;s board of directors to support and recommend this offer. We are proud of how Telenet has evolved in recent years, and we are fully committed to Belgium and all the company&#39;s stakeholders.&quot;
The purchase of shares will be funded by non-recourse debt financing obtained by Liberty Global Belgium Holding. No Liberty Global corporate cash, liquidity or corporate guarantees are required to finance the share purchases.
Liberty Global Belgium Holding has published a notice in accordance with article 8, &sect;1 of the Royal Decree of 27 April 2007 on Public Takeover Bids regarding Liberty Global Belgium Holding&#39;s intention to make the Intended Offer which can be found here:&nbsp;<a href="https://cts.businesswire.com/ct/CT?id=smartlink&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.libertyglobal.com%2Fwp-content%2Fuploads%2F2023%2F03%2F03-21-Article-8-Liberty-Global-plc-subsidiary-Liberty-Global-Belgium-Holding-BV-Intends-to-Launch-Voluntary-and-Conditional-Public-Takeover-Bid-for-Telenet-Group-Holding-NV.pdf&amp;esheet=53365207&amp;newsitemid=20230321005643&amp;lan=en-US&amp;anchor=Article+8+Announcement&amp;index=1&amp;md5=b96c13307b39cc130c0771ef0ad89461">Article 8 Announcement</a>.

If history is any guide, there may be trouble ahead for shares of Liberty Global (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LBTYB#NASDAQ">LBTYB</a>). A so-called "death cross" has formed on its chart and, not surprisingly, this could be bearish for the stock.
What To Know: Many traders use moving average crossover systems to make their decisions.
When a shorter-term average price crosses above a longer-term average price, it could mean the stock is trending higher. If the short-term average price crosses below the long-term average price, it means the trend is lower.
Why It's Important: The 50-day and the 200-day simple moving averages are commonly used. 
The death cross occurs when the 50-day moves below the 200-day. This could mean the long-term trend is changing.
That just happened with Liberty Global, which is trading around $28.28 at publication time.
<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2022/1642171897_0.png" alt="signals" />
Remember: Seasoned investors don't blindly trade Death Crosses.
Instead, they use it as a signal to start looking for short positions based on other factors, like price levels and company fundamentals &amp; events.
For seasoned investors, this is just a sign that it might be time to start considering possible short positions.

<a href="https://investorplace.com">InvestorPlace - Stock Market News, Stock Advice &amp; Trading Tips</a>
The latest <a href="https://www.sec.gov/divisions/investment/13ffaq">13F regulatory filings</a> that disclose the buying and selling of stocks among hedge funds have recently been released. As is always the case, the filings reveal some interesting moves among the world&rsquo;s best investors. They also show patterns and trends forming when it comes to where the &ldquo;smart money&rdquo; is <a href="https://www.barrons.com/articles/stocks-buy-hedge-fund-holdings-b1514c43">allocating capital</a>. Often ahead of the broader market and retail investors, it can be instructive to study the moves of hedge fund managers to get a sense of both sentiment and where they see the market headed in the near-term. Similar to earnings reports, backdated a quarter, 13F filings provide a snapshot of the recent past. They still provide insight into how the &ldquo;<a href="https://www.forbes.com/sites/nathanvardi/2017/02/15/for-billionaire-masters-of-the-universe-being-publicly-traded-has-not-been-fun/?sh=38ed93cf7e8e">Masters of the Universe</a>&rdquo; see the stock market and structure their bets. Here are three loved hedge fund stocks that are being bought in bulk. 



<h2>Amazon (AMZN)</h2>



<div><img width="300" height="169" src="https://investorplace.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/10/amazon-stock-300x169.png" alt="An image on the Amazon logo on a phone, held in front of a stock chart to represent Amazon stock"><div>Source: Daniel Fung / Shutterstock</div></div>In a recent note to clients, investment bank Goldman Sachs (NYSE:<a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-quotes/gs-stock-quote/">GS</a>) highlighted the fact that hedge funds have become net sellers of the so called &ldquo;Magnificent Seven&rdquo; <a href="https://investorplace.com/industries/technology/">technology stocks</a>. After increasing their positions throughout 2023, top hedge funds in America have begun unwinding their positions in popular mega-cap technology companies. Despite continuing to outperform the market, hedge funds have begun <a href="https://www.bnnbloomberg.ca/hedge-funds-cut-magnificent-seven-in-last-quarter-goldman-says-1.2037152">selling the high-flying tech stocks</a>. The selling led Goldman Sachs to place Microsoft (NASDAQ:<a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-quotes/msft-stock-quote/">MSFT</a>) on its &ldquo;Falling Stars&rdquo; list of stocks that have seen the largest drop in popularity among hedge funds. 



However, there is one Magnificent Seven stock that continues to be <a href="https://www.marketwatch.com/story/hedge-funds-have-started-selling-stakes-in-the-magnificent-seven-despite-the-bumper-returns-3644d093">added to hedge fund portfolios</a>: Amazon (NASDAQ:<a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-quotes/amzn-stock-quote/">AMZN</a>). Top hedge funds continue to be net buyers of the e-commerce company&rsquo;s stock, notes Goldman. The continued buying of AMZN stock comes after the company reported its best quarterly earnings print in two years. Additionally, the company&rsquo;s shares are about to be added to the Dow Jones Industrial Average. While AMZN stock has gained 82% in the last 12 months, its growth has trailed other mega-cap tech stocks whose share prices have doubled and even tripled. 



<h2>Liberty Global (LBTYA, LBTYB, LBTYK)</h2>



<div><img width="300" height="169" src="https://investorplace.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/02/lbtya-lbtyb-lbtyak-libertyglobal1600-300x169.jpg" alt="The homepage for Liberty Global shown through an illustration of a magnifying glass."><div>Source: Pavel Kapysh / Shutterstock.com</div></div>Liberty Global (NASDAQ:<a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-quotes/lbtya-stock-quote/">LBTYA</a>, NASDAQ:<a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-quotes/lbtyb-stock-quote/">LBTYB</a>, NASDAQ:<a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-quotes/lbtyk-stock-quote/">LBTYK</a>), despite getting little attention in the financial press, is a British telecommunications firm that hedge fund managers are loving. The latest 13-F regulatory filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission show that hedge fund managers Anthony Bozza (Lakewood Capital), Seth Klarman (Baupost) and Larry Robbins (Glenview) each initiated new positions in the company&rsquo;s stock during the fourth quarter of 2023. It&rsquo;s not clear what the hedge fund titans see in Liberty Global, given that the <a href="https://finance.yahoo.com/news/shareholders-liberty-global-nasdaq-lbty-155338526.html">stock is down 13% </a>over the past 12 months and has declined 24% in the last five years. 



The company, based in London, England, has operations around the world and is currently undergoing <a href="https://ca.investing.com/news/stock-market-news/earnings-call-liberty-global-outlines-strategic-growth-amid-challenges-93CH-3268468">a major restructuring</a>, focusing on shareholder returns. Liberty Global intends to buyback up to 10% of its own shares this year and distribute $1.7 billion in dividends. Also, the company is in the process of <a href="https://www.reuters.com/markets/deals/liberty-global-spin-off-swiss-telecom-unit-sunrise-2024-02-16/">spinning off its Swiss telecom unit</a>, Sunrise. Hedge fund managers are betting that the restructuring, spinoff, and shareholder returns will boost Liberty Global stock moving forward. 



<h2>Alibaba (BABA)</h2>



<div><img width="300" height="169" src="https://investorplace.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/07/alibaba-stock-300x169.jpg" alt="baba value stocks"><div>Source: BigTunaOnline / Shutterstock.com</div></div>Both Goldman Sachs and Bank of America (NYSE:<a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-quotes/bac-stock-quote/">BAC</a>) have noted in separate reports that hedge funds are now <a href="https://www.reuters.com/markets/hedge-flow-hedge-funds-lap-up-china-stocks-fastest-pace-5-years-goldman-2024-01-29/">buying Chinese stocks </a>at the fastest pace since 2015. As the government and regulators in China take steps to boost the country&rsquo;s ailing economy and stock market, hedge funds are piling back into the nation of 1.4 billion people. And one of the stocks hedge funds are loading up on is Chinese e-commerce giant Alibaba (NYSE:<a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-quotes/baba-stock-quote/">BABA</a>). One prominent hedge fund manager who <a href="https://www.barrons.com/articles/the-big-short-michael-burry-alibaba-stock-381b894a">added to his position</a> in BABA stock in Q4 of last year was <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Michael_Burry">Michael Burry</a> of Scion Asset Management. 



Capital flowing into Alibaba comes as the &ldquo;Amazon of China&rdquo; continues to struggle. In the last year, BABA stock is down nearly 20%, bringing its five-year decline to 60%. However, if Chinese equities market rebound strongly, Alibaba&rsquo;s share price will likely recover too. Signs are encouraging in this regard, with Chinese markets having risen for <a href="https://www.cnbc.com/2024/02/23/asia-markets-headed-for-mixed-session-china-house-prices-data-awaited-.html">nine consecutive trading days</a>.
