“We added to our position in Liberty Media Corporation – Liberty Live, a follower stock whose main asset is its stakes in Live Nation Entertainment, Inc. (NYSE:LYV). Live Nation, which produces live concerts and owns Ticketmaster, dropped when the Department of Justice (DOJ) sued the company for anti-competitive behavior. We expanded our position in Liberty Live because we do not believe the Department of Justice lawsuit will lead to the breakup of Live Nation and we believe Live Nation is trading at a valuation well below its intrinsic value. Shares of Live Nation and Liberty Live rallied during the quarter, ending the period near their 52-week highs.”
