MGM shares should trade up toward the $48.30 offer price, with a spread reflecting deal risk (regulatory, financing, negotiation). IAC shares may face modest pressure due to anticipated leverage and equity dilution. Watch for MGM board response, competing bids, and regulatory filings (HSR, gaming approvals).
