Tilman Fertitta Nears $5.7 Billion Caesars Takeover
Consumer
Tilman Fertitta is nearing a $5.7B ($17.6B enterprise value) takeover of Caesars Entertainment, which would take CZR private and unite it with Golden Nugget and Landry's. The deal anchors a hard floor near the offer price, but SeekingAlpha already flags the bid as 'fair but unrewarding' — limiting meaningful upside from here.

Long CZR as a merger-arb stub — stock trades ~$29 vs. deal implied value; spread should compress toward closing price but upside is capped unless a competing bid emerges.
