☆ Rupert Murdoch’s property group REA ends chase to buy Rightmove after multiple rejected offers
▼ + stars: | 2024-09-30 | by ( April Roach | ) www.cnbc.com time to read: +2 min

LONDON — Rupert Murdoch's Australian property firm REA Group said Monday it would no longer seek to buy the U.K.'s Rightmove after the property portal rejected a fourth takeover proposal. "We were disappointed with the limited engagement from Rightmove that impeded our ability to make a firm offer within the timetable available. Rightmove, meanwhile, said Monday in a separate statement that its board unanimously rejected REA Group's fourth offer proposal on the grounds that it "materially undervalued Rightmove and its future prospects." REA Group, in which News Corp owns a more than 61% interest, operates a number of property websites in Australia, as well as several brands in India and the U.S. The company sold its real estate site PropertyFinder Group to Rightmove rival Zoopla in 2009, during the Global Financial Crisis.

The first piece of evidence Hussman cites is valuation, specifically the total market cap of non-financial stocks to total value added of those stocks. He predicted in 2000 that the S&P 500 would likely see negative total returns over the following decade, which it did. He predicted in April 2007 that the S&P 500 could lose 40%, then it lost 55% in the subsequent collapse from 2007 to 2009. The S&P 500, by comparison, is up about 32% over the past year.
